    They never managed to recapture the horror of the first episode although a couple of times they got close. Netflix is not even trying though, black mirror used to be the only unbingeable show where you had to let each episode sit with you and think about how you feel about it. Now it's twee sci-fi with happy endings. I could just watch old star trek for that.

    I haven't watched the latest season but Black Mirror put me off when it just straight up became horror. I don't enjoy the horror genre with the jump scares and the scary monster crap. I really enjoyed the episodes of Black Mirror that were psychological thrillers or dystopian, but somewhere Black Mirror lost it's way and leaned in to being blandly scary, not contemplatively scary.
