Black Mirror Season 6 Episode Details
Speaking to Tudum, showrunner Charlie Brooker said: “So this time around, alongside some of the more familiar Black Mirror tropes, we also have a few new elements, some of which I’ve already sworn blind that the show would ever do, to stretch the parameters of what even “an episode of Black Mirror” is.
The latest teaser (link above) shows off all the usual dystopia and violence, with scenes set in outer space, sentient Macs and more.
How to watch Black Mirror

Netflix prices start from just $6.99 / £4.99 per month and currently offer not only the produced seasons but also the first two seasons, which originally aired on Channel 4.
