    A Beautiful, hopeful dystopia

    Yeah i'm not going to spoil anything. You dont deserve that. Just know that this is probably the funniest, most heartwarming Black Mirror episode to date. Its also one of the best love stories i've seen in recent years. So what are you waiting for?

    Dont check the time, just watch it now!

    The most human and genuine Black Mirror has ever been, this side of San Junipero.

    Might be the romantic in me speaking, but this is one of my favorite episodes of the entire series, and so far, my personal standout for S4. Brooker's commentary is delivered with a strong sense of purpose, unlike some episodes that I personally think become quite self-indulgent (looking at you, Playtest). The chemistry between the leads feels genuine and infectious, and even with the short 50-minute runtime, the progression felt natural and by the end, I cared about these two characters more than any others in the series, aside from the leads in San Junipero. This episode feels timely, relevant, and gets to the core of human emotion without delving into melodrama and heavy-handedness. I think it's a bit short and the last ten minutes seem far too rushed, but I can't help but feel this is one of the best examples of Brooker writing an intriguing concept and translating it to screen with engaging visuals and performances. It's a nice reminder in the midst of the chaos, depression, and fear that Black Mirror frequently indulges in that Brooker is still human after all.

    First time I've ever reviewed anything

    Just wanted to say, it was beautiful. Made me weep at the end.

    A Beautiful episode, I loved it.

    I was saying, "Don't look, you'll regret it". But what this episode turned into was pure heaven, probably the best episode this season. I was walking around the house after it finished saying "I really liked that one".

    An amazing love story

    This was one of the best episodes in all the 4 seasons. I cant say more without spoiling this but it is the one of the best I have watched.
