Watched the first series of Black Mirror after viewing the most recent one and loving it. The first episode with the pig ****ing was just dumb, the second episode with the American Idol/Brazzers thing was good but nothing to write home about, and the last episode with the dinner party and the bionic eye/brain systems was absolutely brilliant and hit me on the same level as San Junipero did. Made up for the first two episodes for sure. The first two had themes and ideas about the media and such that I really liked, but I think that they could have been communicated in a much better way.
And now onto the second season.
