Description
Black Mirror is a British anthology television series created by Charlie Brooker. *The series explores various genres, with most episodes set in near-future dystopias containing sci-fi technology—a type of speculative fiction. The series is inspired by The Twilight Zone and uses the themes of technology and media to comment on contemporary social issues. Most episodes are written by Brooker with involvement by the executive producer Annabel Jones.
There are 33 episodes in seven series and one special, in addition to the interactive film Black Mirror: Bandersnatch (2018).
The first two series aired on the British network Channel 4 in 2011 and 2013, as did the 2014 special « White Christmas« .
The programme then moved to Netflix, where five further series aired in 2016, 2017, 2019, 2023, and 2025. Two related webisode series were produced by Netflix, and a companion book to the first four series, Inside Black Mirror, was published in 2018. Soundtracks to many episodes have been released as albums.
Black Mirror is considered by some reviewers to be one of the best television series of the 2010s, while some critics have found the formulaic morality themes of the series obvious or have cited declining quality. The programme won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Television Movie three times consecutively for « San Junipero« , « USS Callister » and Bandersnatch.
