Is anyone watching Bandersnatch

Literally feel like it will never end, but so unique and innovative, Charlie Brooker will rake awards in next year.

Like @PseudoBadger we also got all the endings in one viewing. Did other people only get one? Ours kept looping round and we were given more options so we saw each ending!

There is a special Easter egg in one ending which only some people see. It comes about 30 seconds in to the credits running.

Liked it, and liked how you actually ultimately COULDNT choose for yourself - it forced you to choose certain paths. I suppose originally you chose between the sugar puffs or Frosties, but towards the end we had at least 3 ‘choices’ where we were forced one way - eg one time there was only one option to choose, another time it was either ‘yes’ or ‘fuck yeah!’. Very clever comment on free will!

@BendydickCuminsnatch I noticed the lack of choices you also get exactly the same outcome from typing yes or fuck yeah. As for jump moments the only other one was when I was an idiot and clicked the wrong password for the safe while trying to get the bunny.

If you can't watch it, try updating your Netflix app.

I've watched lots of different variations now. I've been down most of the paths and have seen the Easter egg in the credits.

When you have Yeah or Fuck Yeah options leading to the same ending it's because you've got down an inevitable path. If you don't fight her you get a different end though.

Since people are sharing endings anyway, we got the one where the young Stefan ended up getting on the train with his mum (big Stefan goes back in the PAC thing to change history so he gets his bunny back from his dad so that his mum lives, BUT she takes so long getting the bunny that they miss the train before so end up getting the train that crashes anyway), so died as a kid, so then it flashes forward to when he’s grown and in his psychiatrist chair and he just drops dead in the middle of a session.

We got fed up, never saw Pearl and only got one ending. After reading up on it, it said there were a million permutations! It felt like we'd tried most of them...Confused

I saw the mockup they did of 80s shops in St Georges Walk in Croydon and I saw a double decker bus with filming equipment go past. There was a travel agent called Soleil. Fads might have been one of them. Should have taken a photo really. There's a lot of empty shops in Croydon because of the new Westfield shopping centre they are supposedly building. The building he worked in is next to East Croydon station.

Was Pearl Colin's wife or baby? I can't remember

Baby

Just watched it, was a bit meh. The gimmick was good but I think the story could have been a bit clearer and meatier

I've just completed a survey from Netflix about my experience with Bandersnatch has anyone else had it ?
