Just watched it for the second time. First thing that came to mind is that this will happen sometime down the road based on privatized prisons. As soon as someone can figure out how to make it work where it will pacify the public outrage using the entertainment value as the compromise. Hell, half of the population today would get off on this concept.

Secondly, for some reason it made me think about the killer whales at Seaworld here in San Diego. Paraded out each day to "perform" unnaturally just to amuse the public and make someone profit.

Watching 15 Million Credits for the second time and just realized that the female pop star early on on the tele is the same actress as the hook-up in Playtest.

Hannah John-Kamen

I liked the other girl better than had a crush on him and was a bit shy.

New favorite episode: Hated in the Nation

The scene at the end when all hell breaks loose, against the backing of that ominous song, is so far beyond chilling it's ridiculous.

Shut Up and Dance
White Bear
The Entire History of You

It's been awhile since I watched this show but those really stand out to me even still. Really, really like this kind of television. I actually haven't watched the final 2 episodes, so I should get on that right about now. I was saving them for later.
