    I saw this mentioned elsewhere and it looked interesting but on Netflix it seems to start with season 3, which is Nosedive.

    I think the series is called "Black Mirror". I read that it's been out for awhile in the U.K.

    One person said that Netflix has all the previous seasons but there hasn't been a reply to that yet.

    Anybody have any info for me?

    I just started watching this series on Netflix but didn't get through the first episode when the 'pig' came up.

    Not so much as not good but weird. The demand in a hostage situation was for someone to have sex with a pig, ew!

    I started watching the first episode in season 3 which is called "Nosedive" it's pretty interesting so far, it's about life in the not so distant future and everything seems to depend on what you are rated by people you interact with...the rating is done on an iPhone type device. 1-5 stars. Everything is based on how many stars you have or what you're rating is so of course you strive for 5.0.

    I'm half way thru the first episode and each episode is a different story so it's not like a typical series.

    I'm just having trouble finding season I and 2 on Netflix...

    Skipped episode 2 and I'm watching episode 3....pretty intense. An unknown person videotaped a teen boy watching some porn on his laptop and also doing what teen boys do when watching porn. Then he started getting texts from this unknown person to do things and if he doesn't follow directions the video will be sent to all his contacts.

    Poor kid is a nervous wreck and he's sent to deliver a cake to a guy at a hotel who's also a nervous wreck...both are sent to an address and in the car the man tells the boy he was videotaped with a prostitute and his family will find out if he doesn't do what he's told and that's where I am now...both are driving to a destination and don't know what awaits them....

    This one is set in the UK and in the present....this episode is called "Shut up and Dance".

    Finished watching it...won't give away the ending.

    So far the two I watched keep you hooked to see how it ends.

    Going to watch the one I skipped...episode 2...."Playtest".


    Forgot to add...don't watch these if you are upset by swearing. There is some of that but not excessive.

    This was my least favorite episode so far...still keeps you watching to see what happens in the end but the main character got on my nerves.

    Seems all of these so far deal with technology in a twilight zone type of way.
