I was introduced to Black Mirror for the first time last month and finished the last episode last week. I'm having bouts of tv depression. The show defeated me.

Does anyone have any recommendations on an anthropology series like Black Mirror that was dystopian and technological in nature? Would love your opinions!

Outer limits is really good

On it capitain; to avoid bunch of posts I'll try to edit this before it's edit locked. Let's see what my brain findz!

Horror, really messed up sometimes, I can be a sick mother f****** but I stopped after season 3. Zac Q. Was really the only reason I watched.

More horror, suited to 90's kids? (speculation)

This one is rather amazing imo, human conditioning and manipulation with a twist of unknown darkness...
Season 2 coming soon, it's very... Interesting.

I love this series, creepy as it sounds, very inspirational to me... That being said, am an awesome friend to have and a short lived enemy.

Great show. Did you know this premise originally was suppose to be “Scream 3”.

Good read!
Thank you!

I wasn't sure if this was like really common knowledge, I just recently learned it from a youtube video. Thought it was quite interesting. Would have made a way better Scream 3!
