lighthousenot even a troll but probably worst season by far imo. black mirror was great because of how ominous it makes the future seem, but this season either did so with just psychopaths killing people which barely had anything to do with the technology, or they had happy endings, showing the good side of the technology, or just straight up had like no meaning at all (metalhead).
after things like playtest, the entire history of you, white christmas, nosedive, shut up and dance, men against fire, all of season 4 seemed really lackluster, except maybe callister.
100% agree. It no longer feel like it's the Channel 4 tvserie it once was. It no longer dig deep into umanity's nature (helped by a technology that, at first sight, might seem nice & helpful). It's way too american now, imho.
I'm apparently the only one who thinks that S04E01 is meh.. Bah! I felt like it was nothing new under the sun, a (bad) aspect of humanity already seen elsewhere. Nothing that happened shocked me, really :\
The one episode of S4 that i felt was better then the others was Arkangel. Between all the ones i saw (all but Black Museum) it's probably the one that makes a better impression of old Black Mirror.
Season1 ~ Season2 > Season3 >> Season4
If others feels like me, you may want to try starting "Inside no. 9", another UK produced tvserie that, in certain aspects, reminds me of early Black Mirror :)
