Black Mirror (2011)
At first, I had a feeling that I just needed to tune in to the specific corrosive mood, later I believed that the best episodes were yet to come, but even after five seasons, my disappointment had not improved. The title explicitly suggests that it will address issues of contemporary society, but I cannot shake the impression that despite the diversity of themes, the individual plots are almost always about the same thing in the end. In more than half of the stories, the latest technological innovations appear and are eventually misused by people to disadvantage, humiliate, or even kill either someone close to them, a stranger, or themselves. And however technically well made the series is as a whole, that depressing routine always kicks in almost immediately.

Contos de Natal (2014) (S02E04)
The best idea of the first two seasons is complemented by a depressing atmosphere and at least one very unpleasant twist. And yet it's not enough. When it comes to the point of why we saw everything we saw, the overwhelming avalanche of ideas does not hold together at all. And that is a pretty serious problem for catharsis in a seventy-minute episode.

Em queda livre (2016) (S03E01)
On paper, everything looked like a turning point in my perception of the entire series. An appealing and perhaps the most topical subject matter, starring my beloved Bryce Dallas Howard, the appealing James Norton as her brother, the reliable Joe Wright behind the camera – and yet I remain disappointed. I don't like stories where the main character is punished for mistakes they didn't make and as a result, is dragged into an increasingly repugnant quagmire. Instead of being an unforgettable spectacle, Nosedive leaves only a feeling of permanent frustration.

Ódio nacional (2016) (S03E06)
Detective stories rarely come my way, but when a good one appears, I usually don't pass on it. In his most ambitious work to date, Charlie Brooker pays homage to the Nordic phenomena of the last decade and, despite a pleasantly disturbing atmosphere, bites off more than he can chew. Ninety minutes in this case is truly an unmanageable dose, confirming that the main creator of the series is, willingly or unwillingly, a megalomaniac who almost always overdoes everything in the end. This time, he also tries to drive me crazy by using one of the characters as a narrator during the investigation, who four times astonishedly stares at the monitor with some breakthrough information for that moment, loudly announcing to everyone around that the case is finally solved. Black Mirror has something to it, but it has definitively become somewhat distasteful to me with this tired homage to every other crime story.

A Joan é terrível (2023) (S06E01)
It is tradition that every third series starts with a woman who bumps into something, then bumps into something again, and then ends up riding with it in such a way that I feel sorry for her, no matter what she does. Nosedive was so uncompromising that it frustrated me, Joan is more creative, crazier, and in a meta sense so exaggerated that I put her one step higher. At the same time, however, she is so dependent on current topics led by streaming services that she is at risk of aging the fastest in the whole cycle. However, I enjoyed her even more right now.

Loch Henry (2023) (S06E02)
It surprises me how many viewers are currently surprised by how Loch Henry deviates too much from the concept. For me, it fits in, but not as blatantly and noticeably as it often happens otherwise. I see the need to go with the crowd for the individual to go far enough, and that is exactly what the cycle always liked to revolve around. Moreover, the sharpened mischief has kept the boundary of playing with a specific genre so high that it will never lead to empty suffering of the viewer or protagonists.

Demónio 79 (2023) (S06E05)
Like a shard reflecting the anthology does not fit in anywhere from the beginning to the end at all. But when I go to meet the retro demon and take the resulting mixture either as an alternative universe or as a story that someone played in Streamberry series, there is nothing left but to bow. Because this is how tribute is paid, this is how vintage crumbs are picked out, and this is how Boney M is listened to.
