I guess this is a sci-fi show out of the UK, sort of like a Twilight Zone. I have been hearing good things so I watched the first episode over lunch.
This episode reminded me strongly of Liquid Television from MTV back when that was still a good channel about 20 years ago.
Trust me.... watch the first 10 minutes of the first episode. If you aren't on board for the entire show, I will eat my hat.
6 episodes on Netflix, total.
Black Mirror - Yay! Netflix
Watched this because the DVD I ordered was more damaged than the NFL playoff chances of a joint Minnesota-Cleveland team.
Not even. Five minutes.
Watched the first 3 eps. 2 > 1 > 3. 3 was a distant third. 2 was goddamn good. 1 was a rather close second but made a slight misstep halfway through.

I have watched the 6 that Netflix has, and apparently there was a XMAS episode last year with Jon Hamm that isn't available yet.
If you haven't watched it yet, don't binge. Watch one, then recover for a day or so. This stuff should be taken in small bites then allowed to digest.

I have watched the first two episodes today, and they were both great.
I'd go 2 > 1 > 4 > 5 >> 6 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 3.
I could be talked into flip flopping 1 & 4, and in fact, I've already done so while typing this sentence.
1, 4, and 5 are interchangeable to me. Stick around for the credits on #5.

Awesome.
In related news, I actually did a live chat with their folks and asked for the same treatment for The League.
