This episode lands somewhere in the middle-not the best of the season, but certainly not the worst. The plot is quite linear, offering a straightforward narrative that manages to keep you engaged without demanding your full attention. It's the kind of episode you can have on while doing other chores, and still follow along. I appreciated the emotional undertones, which added a layer of relatability. However, Black Mirror has set the bar high with its signature non-linear storytelling and thought-provoking premises. This one doesn't quite reach those heights. While the concept is justified and the execution is decent, it ultimately leaves you wanting more in terms of depth and complexity.

Lacking Depth - A Mild Entry in the Anthology

This is the tragic season episode I honestly regret watching. The episode begins with a promising build-up, giving the illusion of depth and intrigue. But just when it seems like the story is going somewhere meaningful, it collapses under the weight of its own concept. The sci-fi angle feels forced and ultimately breaks apart, leaving little to reflect on. I can imagine some viewers finding value in its ambition, but it's definitely not for me. What I love about Black Mirror is its ability to make you question society, ethics, and technology. This felt like a throwaway idea with a flat, uninspired ending. Easily one of the worst episodes of the series, right alongside episode 4, "Plaything." Very disappointing.

Weird, weird, weird. Right from the beginning, it was clear this episode was heading into strange territory-but not in a good way. The concept was predictable and the storyline felt disappointingly linear. While it attempted to explore themes around AI, the execution felt shallow and underdeveloped, as if the idea wasn't fully thought through. Compared to other Black Mirror episodes, this one falls short. It lacked the emotional or intellectual punch the series is known for. Honestly, it was a letdown and one I didn't enjoy. Hopefully the next one redeems the season with something stronger. I hope.
