The Black Mirror thread reminded me that I never posted a thread about Electric Dreams. It's running on Netflix now, looks very similar themed to Black Mirror (most immediately dub it a copy cat when they see the promos). Like Black Mirror, it started on Channel 4 in the UK.
There are a lot of fairly big stars in the show, and the themes are not quite as dark as Black Mirror. Possibly a more positive light on some of the episodes (but not all). Also, not all are related to technology, although most take place in the future.
It's a bit of a mixed bag, few winners, some losers. Still, something else that is new to watch. I hope this spawns more of these types of shows, as well as revives the genre of Twilight Zone, and the like.
Anyone else watch all 10 episodes of Electric Dreams yet?
