Black Mirror is a terrible show. It is just tired old stories with little character development or intellectual depth. I would not find it is was a show like, Burn Notice, where the whole point is to be low-brow, however, if a show sells itself as a cultural critique it needs the depth to match it. Black Mirror falls very short of being anywhere close to intellectually stimulating.

I respectfully disagree. The episodes aren't all fantastic, but overall the show is very thought provoking. Sure there have been similar story lines in other media, but Black Mirror gives a nice, concise look at where our culture and technology are going. I'm really looking forward to the new episodes.

I love Charlie Brooker. Good for him.
