Decided to write this while I'm watching the episode.
This episode is just social justice vomit. 36 minutes in and I'm so BORED!! I thought Black Mirror was supposed to be a sci-fi concepts anthology. The only reason I made it this far is rockin' 80s music and my OCD about dropping things in the middle. Even the acting is sub-par from what I expect from this show by now.

Still trying to figure out the point too. It's just a lesbian soap so far...

40 minutes, finally hits future setting at least.
Having to check the time as I go. I don't remember 60 minutes bent so long a time...

50 minutes, finally a sci-fi concept, not very original though. I feel like they've covered this one before. =/
55. This is absolutely HORRIBLE writing. These chicks supposedly just got married and now they're having a fight because they know nothing about each others lives. Are you fucking store serious?? Isn't that something you should, I dunno, maybe know before getting hitched. I can't buy any of these characters. Seriously, they aren't even good caricatures of believable people. Can they just die and end my misery?

End. FINALLY!
Worst Black Mirror episode yet. At least there's a good credits track so I want to hurt things a bit less now. Waste of an hour.

It's a shame when outdated social beliefs prevent you from appreciating an adorable love story, and possibly the most uplifting episode of 'Black Mirror' we're ever going to get. This is why TRAKT needs a Block all Reviews from this Member button.

@abstractals You know absolutely nothing about me or my beliefs. You're just assuming. I did not watch Black Mirror for happy endings or fluffy feel good love stories. If I wanted a lesbian soap opera I'd go watch one of those. I agree, Trakt could use a block feature ad I don't care to hear your opinions on my content.

@dogg724 I rather want to take that as a compliment.
I'm generally pretty amiable, but when people and things I like are messed with then I get less so. This episode just happened to do that. No other Black Mirror episode has gotten less than a 7 from me. This one was just too out of character and preachy from the show's usual.

@kaisaria The episode "messed with" a person and/or thing you like?

@kaisaria That wasn't the point of their wedding though. Kelly only married the other girl so she could "pass over".

@kaisaria I didn't like this episode for the same reasons you did, but throwing in 'social justice' just completely proved you as a moron. Just because something has gay characters, it doesn't mean its purpose is for 'social justice'. You're just ignorant.
