Each 40 minute episode follows different characters in different situations. The episodes generally follow a theme of the effect of technology on society, especially in the future. The show is constantly compared to the Twilight Zone.
Black Mirror is going to be renewed as a 12 episode Netflix show this year which I'm really looking forward to.
Each episode is very high quality. This includes the acting, soundtrack and especially the story-lines. The stories are all very unique and interesting, and usually contain a twist. The premier follows a politician being threatened on live television, the second follows a virtual reality concept. The episodes jump from idea-to-idea very quickly, but the messages for all the episodes are still very similar. The episodes never really drop in quality, although I definitely preferred the first season.
I would give Black Mirror 8.5/10, and would definitely recommend it.
Rated 15, runtime 42 minutes.
