What is your favourite episode of Black Mirror (potential spoilers)

I am obsessed with Black Mirror and watched all the episodes at least twice.

Be right back is probably my favourite although Black museum is a very close second.

What's your favourite?

beansonbread, I agree about the Waldo moment. Not a big fan of 15 million merits either.

I've managed to watch Playtest twice but don't think I will watch it again. It scared the life out of me even on the second viewing

I’m going to have a full rewatch I think as I’ve just done the new series.

Can’t watch the very first one again though, that made me feel sick.

This series , the one with the car accident and the memory capture was my favourite.

HappyLollipop · 20/01/2018 15:46

I loved black museum it's now in second place but my favourite is still San Junipo I hope they do a follow up where they explore part of it! Other great episodes are hated in the nation, nosedive, hang the DJ and white bear.

TheClacksAreDown · 20/01/2018 15:51

White Bear
San Junipero
National anthem
Hated in the nation
Nosedive
USS Callisto
Arkangel

IDontBowlOnShabbos · 20/01/2018 15:58

I really hated crocodile and shut up and dance. Really well acted but so depressing.

This season I loved USS Calister, thought it was so funny and Jesse Plemons is so sinister in such an unobvious way. I loved San Junipero, I want that to be available when I'm dying!

Itscurtainsforyou · 20/01/2018 16:05

Me too Shaboos - I want to be "uploaded to the cloud" as they described it in Black Museum Smile

DullAndOld · 20/01/2018 16:10

White Bear
The one where people ride static bicycles and have gather points..then use the points to enter a competition..? It had 'Parking Patawayo' from Harry and Paul in it?

The one where some kid tries to wipe his PC memory with a site called 'Shrive'?

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 20/01/2018 16:57

White Bear
Shut Up and Dance

Tellmewhatyouknow · 20/01/2018 17:23

Dullandold

The bike one is called Fifteen million merits

The pc memory is Shut up and dance

Be Right Back has stayed with me, I was only thinking about it yesterday.

Whatthefoxgoingon · 20/01/2018 17:26

San junipero is definitely the best one

I liked black museum but I’d worked out the ending before it happened so it wasn’t as great for me.

EleanorXx · 20/01/2018 20:08

Hated in the nation or 15 million merits are my favourites.

san junipero least favourite.

taskmaster · 22/01/2018 17:31

The one in the new series filmed in Iceland annoyed the shite out of me. Suburban mum spree killer who could have avoided the entire thing if she had just read the small print...

SchoolMoney · 22/01/2018 19:18

Shut up and dance and Hated in the nation.
Because they rattled around my head for so long afterwards.

Hisnamesblaine · 22/01/2018 19:29

What was the one called were the girl had to relive the same day. Waking up in a room amd wandering around a estate with peoole after her. Like a vigilant reality show? Think she commited murder and it was her punishment

Kentnurse2015 · 22/01/2018 19:33

Crocodile was possibly one of the most depressing things I have ever seen.

Love all of them though!

FireandBrimstone · 22/01/2018 20:09

Hisnamesblaine that's White Bear

holasoydora · 22/01/2018 20:15

San Junipero, mainly because it was slightly positive for once! I haven't seen them all though. Really want to see White Christmas (or really don't?).

I find it very difficult watching and it took me a long time to be able to watch any more after the very first one! But I recommend it to people all the time.

TattyCat · 22/01/2018 20:19

I've just discovered Netflix and the first thing I watched was USS Callister. In fact, DP and I both watched it in bed on Sunday as we were both ill. Thought it was really odd and nearly gave up in the first 5 mins, unti,l a comedy moment so we stuck with it. So glad we did!

I'm looking forward to watching the rest, but can anyone tell me what NOT to watch alone at night please?! DP is away during the week and I have only TattyDog for company and we're very remote, so I don't want to watch anything that will terrify me! USS Callister was fine - totally non-scary but are they all?

Itscurtainsforyou · 22/01/2018 21:12

Don't watch:
Crocodile
Metal head

Possibly don't watch:
Black museum
ArkAngel

You should be ok with
Hang the dj

TattyCat · 22/01/2018 22:54

Itscurtainsforyou

Noted, thanks!!

chickensaresafehere · 24/01/2018 11:57

White Bear & San Junipero were just genius is different ways.
I often go back & rewatch ones but the one I definitely couldn't rewatch is The National Anthem,in fact it's a wonder I carried on with Black Mirror,with that being the first ever one (must be my faith in the fantastic Mr Brooker!!)
So after reading this thread,it has made me want to rewatch Shut up & Dance & White Christmas.
From the new series my favourite was a toss up between USS Callister & Black Museum.

The80sweregreat · 26/01/2018 09:13

Why was Crocodile called that?
it was well acted but very disturbing and the ending was pretty awful and clever in equal parts. Beautiful scenery- wherever it was filmed was stunning.
I liked White Bear and Hang the DJ as well.
Charlie Brooker and the other writers are so talented.

OccasionalNachos · 26/01/2018 23:09

Why was Crocodile called that

@The80sweregreat I assumed it was because the memory capture devices meant that someone was always watching, like a crocodile which is mostly concealed underwater apart from the top of its head & eyes.

I feel a bit sick thinking about what the guinea pig saw
