Solid anthology series, just watched an apisode on Netflix, just posting this as a tip of the hat.


Kinda like a modern day Twilight Zone.

The show was made in England and on average, that translates into not sucking.

The episode I watched was this one:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Entire_History_of_You

The lead in this episode was Toby Kebbell, who played the lead character in RocknRolla, the Guy Ritchie film noir-ish flick from a few years back...also a helluva good flick.

I might have to give it another go. I watched the first episode and wasn't too impressed. Will definitely try again.

I've liked the first season, haven't watched season 2 yet. I've always liked most of these types of shows. Twilight Zone, Tales of the Darkside, The Outer Limits, etc. Sometimes different episodes remind me of the horror and sci-fi comics I grew up reading.

Love this series and have watched all episodes. All focus on the ills of technology in society. Really dark, heavy stuff at times. Comparison to The Twilight Zone (one of my all time favorites) is definitely fair. Highly recommended!

You know when you suspect something itself’s always better when it turns out to be true. It’s like I had a bad tooth for years and I’m finally getting my tongue in there and getting rid of all the rotten shit.

I've seen a few episodes and really liked them, especially White Christmas and "Shut Up and Dance". A new season is supposed to debut 12/29. I'll be looking for it.

Best anthology show on Netflix! Superb performances and direction.

However a couple episodes could have benefited from some tighter scripts and editing.

Some of the subject matter is pretty dark and heavy but not irrelevant or inappropriate considering the dark times we are living in.

A successful modern take on the foreboding themes of the Twilight Zone mixed with cyber punk and future-tech dystopian realities.

WATCH AND DESPAIR!!! LOL

I've watched a few episodes and will watch the rest as time permits. It is a good show. And it has gotten a lot of critical acclaim from TC critics.
