Once the Uk tv show “Black Mirror” first debuted, it received in audiences having its techno “Twilight Zone” vibes. Here had been a dark, ultramodern anthology series that harnessed each of our technical anxieties and spun them into twisted parables from the relationship between guy and device. But in the last two seasons — as well as its extremely popular life that is second Netflix — the show’s cult appeal has shown much much much deeper than its electronic gimmickry. Its tales are grounded near to home, into the really future that is near. The result is a individual drama (and sometimes, satire) that seems significantly more visceral, instant and peoples than your antique dystopian nightmare.
On Friday, Oct. 21, “Black Mirror” returns after almost couple of years with six brand new scenarios that are sci-fi. The show has left the British network Channel 4 and gone directly to Netflix’s global streaming platform, where it plays with an expanded budget, an extended episode run (six per season instead of the original three) and a trove of new technological inspirations, including augmented reality games and Twitter death threats for its third season.
