Grinning_Colossus

Which was the one with the hot young people on exercise bikes? I sat through the one with David Cameron and the pig but stopped watching halfway through that one.
Quis futuit ipsos fututores?

To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Ok, I've decided to give my ratings too. Work in Progress.

Worst to best-
Playtest- This one leaves so many questions, but I don't care about the answers.
National Anthem- just disgusting and highly implausible.
Be Right Back- Boring.
Hated in the Nation- Just don't buy it.
The Entire History of You- Might have resonated more with a sympathetic lead.
Fifteen Million Credits- don't remember too well. Something about how everything can be commoditized?
The Waldo Moment- Some funny moments, but the message is cynical in a simplistic, stupid fashion.
Arkangel- I always feel like somebody's watching me
White Bear- weird in a good way. This could be higher without the static flashbacks and obnoxious buzzing.
Black Museum- This show really likes torturing copies.
Bandersnatch- interesting concept, but they should have really committed instead of constantly looping back.
Striking Vipers- Not one but Two Avengers. Pretty light storyline by show standards.
Shut Up and Dance- so dark. I do like they managed to foreshadow the twist without being obvious.
Men Against Fire- Dr. Stamper had some interesting insights.
Metalhead- Very nicely shot, wish there was more (some) exposition. Were they out looking for a teddy bear?   :wacko:
Crocodile- Well, that escalated quickly.
USS Callister- to boldly go where no pixel has gone before
Hang the DJ- Orpheus gets a happy ending?
White Christmas- Cops are sick fucks.
Rachel, Jack and Ashley Too- Lots of fun.
Nosedive- Such a banal dystopia. The beginning dragged a bit, but the end was awesome.
San Junipero- I can see why Tyr was disappointed with the time travel bait and switch, but still this one hits you right in the feels.
Smithereens- Tense and gripping from start to finish.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Also honorable mention for Dead Set. Its basically Black Mirror season 0.
Hilariously of its time. But good.
