While Domhnall Gleeson’s Black Mirror episode is one of the shows strongest outings, it has an unexpected counterpart in a critically acclaimed sci-fi thriller he made two years later. Since Black Mirror began in 2011, creator Charlie Brookers series has been touted as one of the best sci-fi anthology shows of the twenty-first century. Black Mirrors best episodes are reminiscent of The Twilight Zone, utilizing outlandish sci-fi tropes to tell chilling stories about human nature. However, not all the shows outings were equally successful in the eyes of critics and audiences, with later seasons receiving substantially more criticism.
