I watched the first two episodes last night.

Weird stuff, but good stuff. Will continue with it.

Was super confused when episode 3 ended and it acted like I'd watched everything. Then I remembered some countries don't feel the need to do 48 episodes a season.

Third episode was easily my favorite. Followed by the first and then the second. Do I need to use spoiler tags? I feel like I'm the last person to watch this. I'm going to just to be considerate, just in case.

I feel like it was premature of me to even start trying to rank the episodes before seeing them all. These first two from season 3 would shake the list up already.

I -loved- Playtest. That's where I want VR horror to go.

Just hope the experiences last more than four milliseconds.

Shut Up and Dance - the inclusion of the troll face almost ruined the entire episode. But it also had Bronn, and I was really hooked into it up until the meme cropped up so I begrudgingly forgive it for that. Really didn't expect the specifics of what the kid had done.

I had 13 Sins vibes the whole way through.

San Junipero - so good.

Interested to see if any of the remaining episodes can possibly top it.

Men Against Fire - I started and stopped and restarted and paused and rewound this one several times before I finally finished it. When I finally committed I liked it in about the same way I might like a movie on the Syfy channel. It was not a good Black Mirror episode. Low on my list, but I don't think it drops below Waldo.

And the answer to that was a resounding "NO."

Hated in the Nation - I feel almost the same way about this one as I do Men Against Fire. It would have been a good episode of some other show. CSI: Spooky Future or some shit. I still liked it because I just like crime procedurals anyway, but it really didn't stack up against the other episodes. The dude from Sunshine and Prometheus is a big ol boy now.

-

San Junipero
Be Right Back
Shut Up and Dance
The Entire History of You
White Bear
Playtest
Nosedive
Fifteen Million Merits
White Christmas
The National Anthem
Hated in the Nation
Men Against Fire
The Waldo Moment

-

Honestly really hard for me to rank these. I only know two things for sure: the further I got out from National Anthem, the less I cared for it and The Waldo Moment sucked. Also I don't think White Christmas was as good as I initially thought, I was just charmed by Jon Hamm.

Igor do you honestly think the last two episodes of S3 were better than San Junipero?

I don't know if I can accept this opinion. I could understand just about any other episode, but those last two?

Not dank Igor, decidedly not dank.
