First time. Also likely last. This is one twisted pile of hot, stinking, cynical perversion. I feel dirty for having watched it at all - didn’t believe they were serious. God help us if this is entertainment.

It's definitely intense and some are tough to watch.
But the first one isn't indicative of the entire series.

They are not all like that and that episode probably has some of the most extreme subject matter in the series.

This is as close to verbatim as it gets to my reaction a couple years ago. There's no turning back from that. Despite all the hype, I'll never be able to commit haha.

Hell, that episode got me hooked on the show.

I watched the first episode based on the praise from this board.

I was left with the same conclusion. Too much man.

Most people view that episode to be the worst of the series. The other episodes are far different.

Got my g/f to watch BM with me this weekend. We skipped ep 1 because I had seen it. I told her she didn't want to watch. If she watches it on her own then it's on her

The first episode is the worst episode. I was pretty turned off of it too. Even the second episode is a lot better. It does tend to be very dark though. I can't handle watching very much in a short period.

How many gd fricking times are you people gonna have to be told not to watch the first episode first? If you're gonna ignore that advice, you don't deserve the absolute sheer and utter greatness that is the rest of the series.

Black mirror isn’t for majority of older folk. But some episodes are great for everyone, just have to keep watching

You've got to watch the others. Episode 1.1 isn't a bad episode, but it's way too fricked up for a first episode.
My wife had the same reaction as you, and she hasn't watched another since.

It’s customary for people to skip the first episode when watching it with friends who’ve never seen it. It’s not Black Mirror.

I just got done watching all of Black Mirror. I started with the 4th season. USS Callister i think is a good way to start the show. Watched season 4 in order then went back and watched the rest starting with 1.1. I guess after watching Crocodile, Archangel and Black Museum, The National Anthem wasn't so bad. I liked it.
If you had a hard time with National Anthem, you may not be able to handle White Bear or Shut up and Dance. Those two episodes will fck you up.

Black Mirror is criminally overhyped and overrated.
Really liked White Christmas, the Memory of You, 15 Million Merits, and the one with Bear in the title though.

You do realize that in almost every thread on this show, almost everyone says to skip the first episode, right?
Posted on 1/17/18 at 7:53 am to JawjaTigah
I always tell people to skip episode one.
But... the whole show is pretty bleak. It is interesting but damn if it isn't harsh.
