I've watched season 1 through 6 and there definitely were more than one episodes that just left me feeling like crap... But there's so many incredible episodes intermixed, like San Juniperno, that has made me keep coming back.

Today I watched the first episode of season 7, Common People, and... I just can't. It's done me in.

I have a question for those who have watched the remainder of the episodes. Are there any episodes that end on any sort of positive note or are they all this dreadful?

Maybe it's just not for me anymore. I get the premise behind Black Mirror, but there is something about this episode that just kind of shoved me past a point that I'm not sure it's worth it for me to keep watching.

Hmmm. I've always heard good things about this show, but yeahhhh, not sure I can bear to watch bleak things right now. Unless a couple of amazing things happen, but those are very unlikely.

It's well produced and a lot of actors shine in these episodes. Some episodes are incredible. Most though... most may leave you feeling pretty miserable. With that said, I think the show is worth watching when there is a silver lining, hence my post.

In all honesty though, you might be better off over all without watching. The world is pretty screwed right now and the futures envisioned with these episodes usually take it even further. (But not always... again... hence the OP).

Yeah, I might wait for a happier time, haha. Thank you!
