Black Mirror is a three part series by Charlie Brooker about the modern world, with each episode telling a completely different story using a different cast and setting.
So far, two episodes have aired. The first, I disliked, because even though it made a valid point about human nature, it was disgusting. Essentially, the plot revolved around terrorists who blackmailed the Prime Minister into having sex with a pig on live TV. Yeah
The second episode, though, I enjoyed very much. It's depressing, but brilliant. It's set in a dystopian future where everyone peddles bikes to create power (with people unable to peddle the bikes being reduced to the lower class) while watching TV all day, with their only aspirations being to get on TV themselves. I won't say anymore, lest I spoil it for you, but honestly, it's amazing, and probably a whole lot better than I made it sound.
The third episode will air this week.
