Black Mirror

With the most anticipated return in Netflix history set for this weekend, we ranked all of the streaming giant’s best stuff.

Everyone’s favorite ‘Black Mirror’ episode, ‘San Junipero,’ won big at the Emmys.

The world of Black Mirror seems closer to reality with each passing year, and Apple’s new iPhone X may have just give us our “Waldo Moment.” The dystopian tech anthology took aim at Apple with a parody of yesterday’s big announcements, featuring a familiar blue face.

Our first look at Black Mirror Season 4 brought with it a standout Star Trek spoof, so it isn’t any surprise Netflix wants the word out. Get a look at the “U.S.S. Callister,” along with a Jodie Foster-directed episode in new photos from the fall premiere.

The announcement of Black Mirror’s next six episodes killed what lingering hope we had for an official “San Junipero” sequel, but the series may not be done with its most popular installment. Not only may the VR tale get a shout-out in an “Easter egg hose” coming to Season 4, but showrunners are considering “an experience” followup to the episode.

Just when you thought the end of Game of Thrones Season 7 might cut you a break from must-see shows, in swoops fall TV with dozens upon dozens of new and returning TV series; enough to drive your DVR to self-immolation. Join us for a sneak peek!

There’s a chill in the air, but don’t start bundling up for fall just yet. Another look in the Black Mirror is all you need, and our first Season 4 teaser reveals not only the next six titles, but stars as well.

The nominations are in for the 2017 Emmy Awards and there’s just as much to celebrate as there is to be disappointed about. The 2016-2017 TV season was a huge year for the small screen, reaching the peak-iest of peak TV. It was full of more new series than you could keep track of, diverse casts, and many groundbreaking episodes in both the comedy and drama departments. A brief scan of the major categories may leave you feeling a little bummed over the nominations, with many of the usual suspecting making the cut yet again – can the Emmys even exist without Modern Family or Julia Louis-Dreyfus nods at this point? And critical and fan favorites like The Leftovers, Girls, and Legion were nowhere to be seen in the top categories.

The beloved “San Junipero” outing of Black Mirror is one of the few granted a happy ending, though not for lack of some heavy subject matter. One scene in particular might have dragged down the entire episode, as creator Charlie Brooker describes cut footage that would “just be too sad.”

If you weren’t still crying over the absence of Poussey from Orange Is the New Black Season 5, a trip to “San Junipero” might get you there. Heaven is once again a place on Earth, as a new joint Orange and Black Mirror parody reunites Poussey and Taystee.
