I’ve watched season 1 through 6 and there definitely were more than one episodes that just left me feeling like crap… But there’s so many incredible episodes intermixed, like San Juniperno, that has made me keep coming back.

Today I watched the first episode of season 7, Common People, and… I just can’t. It’s done me in.

I have a question for those who have watched the remainder of the episodes. Are there any episodes that end on any sort of positive note or are they all this dreadful?

Maybe it’s just not for me anymore. I get the premise behind Black Mirror, but there is something about this episode that just kind of shoved me past a point that I’m not sure it’s worth it for me to keep watching.

    Did you just ask if an episode of black mirror ended on a positive note?

      I mean, San Junipero is a really amazing episode. Last season, Joan is Awful ended pretty well. Hang the DJ also.

      Black Mirror is what it is, but there are definitely some episodes with redemptive qualities in spite of the terrible technology the episode is centered on.

      I’m just curious if any of the episodes this season end that way.

        But whether an episode is “good” or “bad” doesn’t depend on it ending on a positive note.

        Fair.

        Fifth one is pretty tame. Sixth one is okay.
