USS Callister was better than most movies I've seen in the theater in 2017. Hang the DJ and Black Museum were my favorites, though.


That's practically what I said!

Watched four episodes so far, kind of disappointed. I waited so long for the new season, so watching shite like arkangel really makes me mad. That was the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen and a waste of a potentially good episode. Crocodile is my favorite so far and thought the first episode was really funny. ( I lol’ed at the “ oh my f****”). Still have two more eisodes to go so hopefully the season can redeem itself.

USS Callister was great.

It was a 70's Sci-Fi show, a heist movie, and a futuristic take on tech all wrapped up in one.

I've only seen USS Callister. Thoroughly enjoyed it. However, I couldn't not see Liam McPoyle.

I’m four episodes in as well.

USS Callister easily my favorite. I don’t get the love for Hang the DJ other than the hotness of the female lead.

Arkangel and Crocodile we’re both just ok for me.

Nothing even close to San Junipero, Shut Up and Dance, Entire History of You, White Christmas, or Hated in the Nation.

Crocodile felt pointless to me. And that ending was something

Just finished season 4. Very good but i thought not quite as great as some past seasons, overall.

Also, kind of bummed after such a long hiatus its just 6 episodes

Anybody know why Crocodile was names that? I'm usually pretty good at divining those sorts of things, but I'm coming up with nothing.

Finished. Hang the DJ and Black Museum were great. Metalhead felt incomplete for sure. Not a bad season at all, especially on the strength of Black Museum. That might be a Top 5 episode.

Watched first two:

USS Callister-I really enjoyed it, and I'm not a big fan of space based adventures. I was actually nervous for and caring about the peeps at the end. I think it's because Black Mirror has shown it does anything but guarantee happy endings.

Arkangel-Wasn't terrible, wasn't great. Thanks for introducing the idea of "Slipping her a morning-after mickey"

Here is something for yall to chew on:

The main character or protagonist in every episode was a female.

There were no minority bad guys, and the last episode featured an evil white man dynamic for the minority. In fact, were there any black customers pulling the lever?

Crocodile also had minorities attacked by a white person.

Why would I chew on that?

How is that even something you notice?

I am through the first 5... didn't care for the USS Callister, but I'm not much of a trekkie. I will admit that it did pick up a good bit during the middle, but overall not my favorite.

Agree that Arkangel had a great premise, and I really enjoyed it even if the execution was a bit muddled.

Crocodile was good, but (and I don't care how shallow this makes me seem) the ugliness of the lead character was distracting. Definitely made you think, though, about that sort of technology being available in the future.

Hang the DJ was great, one of the best episodes in the series.

Metalhead was good, I thought, but it could have really been developed further. It seemed like the middle of a movie without a beginning or end.
