I love sci-fi. I love horror. I love dark comedies. This show is definitely for me. Most of the ideas are interesting. Most of the episodes are good-great. Some are mediocre or bad. But the reason to watch this show are a few juicy episodes that blew me away. It's incredible storytelling. And I don't mean "for a show." It's in competition with elite movies as well.

Series 1: 7 stars (2 viewings, 7/9/2023)

This season is really good with awesome ideas and great music. I did sometimes feel unsatisfied. Questions are unanswered and there are some possible missed opportunities. They left me wanting more. But I guess that's the way short stories are.

Interactive Special - Bandersnatch: 9 stars (2 viewings, 7/16/2023)

The way they made this interactive episode is so clever. So many different paths that work so well. On three different occasions I said, "That's my favorite ending." Such a difficult task. It's impressive. A really cool and a fun experience. I was getting really into it.

Series 6: 5 stars (1 viewing, 7/25/2023)

Joan is Awful 3 stars

Salma Hayek is NOT FUNNY. It's a cool idea executed poorly.

Loch Henry 7 stars

Beyond the Sea 5 stars

Cool premise but the directions it takes are fully predictable and annoyingly generic. And the conclusion feels completely out of nowhere.

Mazy Day 6.5 stars

I love the use of Muse's Supermassive Black Hole. I love the direction this story takes, but it's missing a little oomph to put it over the top.

Demon 79 - 5.5 stars

It's mostly okay. It doesn't help that a recent M. Night Shyamalan movie has a strikingly similar premise, although I liked this episode more than that boring movie.
