Improves upon the groundwork laid last season, and the four main characters seem to be more of team. Looking forward to watching this season over the weekend.
Didn't know half of the contestants before this episode, but this was some of the hardest laughing I've done in an episode. I have high hopes for the rest of the season.
The Abe Jurassic Park parody. MAKING A JOKE ABOUT CANCELLING THE SHOW AGAIN IS CRAZY :rofl:. A good finale but an annoying cliffhanger. Other than that it's good.
Love the non-stereotype gay characters. This could do wonders for young gay kids. Really well done!
Among the more insulting episodes in that it seemingly expected the doll swap to be a surprise to anyone. Fiona Dourif... Love her.
nica and tiff, well that's something, so there are still various chuckys around like in the latest movies
What in the... it must be one of the best What if? episodes I've watched.
Jeff stabbing the rice bag adding an INSTANT countdown was iconic
This one is pretty good, which probably has something to do with the fact that Serling wrote it. Its well acted and the casting is well done, too. Its yet another "fountain of youth" story but is interesting and looks to be one of the better Season Three.
A just okay story about an Elvis impersonator. It doesn't take a lot to see the ending coming. It was kind of neat to see that he made the same mistakes that the real Elvis did after previously preaching that Elvis had screwed up.
I'm a fan of this Richard Matheson story. "Button, Button" is part suspense and part comedy. Mare Winningham and Brad Davis are very funny as the couple presented with the unique choice presented by Mr. Steward and his button box. The humor of this episode make it seem like an "Amazing Stories" entry. The ending is satisfying as it offers no certain conclusion but does indirectly suggest the fate of the married couple.
"The Misfortune Cookie" is a very enjoyable episode. Even though I can't really take much of Elliot Gould, he does a good job of playing an arrogant newspaper food critic who trashes a Chinese restaurant, even before having eaten there. He becomes addicted to the fortune cookies after they become an accurate predictor of future events. The ending was a great surprise.
love to the third degree, I lost it. Nathan for you is back!
A chilling, morbid watch - but it must be said - Steve Coogan absolutely nails Saville. Writhingly uncomfortable-to-watch performance
Sarah might be the single worst contestant I have ever seen on a reality strategy show. Thankfully Camille stopped up from the worst possible ending with an all-timer TV moment
This show just shows how easy it is to manipulate people with talk of charity and friendship
Sarah and Liam They were the worst possible in the series
Blake and Camille have got to be stupidest people I can think of, there is no way Sam was ever going to share. They could have easily voted him out instead of Sarah.
1million dollar face.
Good job sherif.
Sam was good entertainment, but such a punchably smug face.
I'd be interested to see how someone with actual people watching and body language skills would do in this. Step one - don't stare at the person speaking, but watch how others are reacting. Amateur hour.
Is it just me or was this episode insanely well-shot and animated even for this show?
Budget 100%
Futurama theorem:
If you’re thrown off by this episode and the obvious fact that it doesn’t align with the Black Mirror mentality, Google “Red Mirror” and read what Charlie Brooker has to say.
This was a solid episode with great performances. You’re allowed to appreciate the story regardless of the box it’s apparently supposed to fit in.
I absolutely get the criticism that this episode (like most episodes of season 6) don't really fit into the previous Black Mirror narrative.
And yet, I loved this one and hope to see Anjana Vasan bashing more people to death in future movies.
Imagine being a writer for a moment, one people love and praise, but being trapped in a box that the people who love your work create. Imagine in the beginning you thriving in that box, people loving you more and more, but eventually you've explored everything in the box. Now suddenly people drag you down, "why is he telling stories outside the box?" This is why season 6 took 4 years, because none of these episodes were bad, but because 3 of the 5 weren't inside the box all this hate gets written. Time to move on people, something is indeed better than nothing, and the more you complain about the theme, the closer you get to black mirror straight out ending and red mirror taking it's place, because all good writers eventually learn how to silence the haters and write with their heart, not with a gun to their head.
Controversial live task, indeed!
The spoons task! Poor Kiell.
Go into the house!
If I knew where the house was, yeah, great.
And the father and son team!
No! Don't go in the kitchen Ivo! What did I tell you not to do, you greedy bastard!?
Embiggen! Also they have changed Kamala from inhuman to a mutant which is pretty cool, especially with the xmen 97 rif playing. Then Carol in the credits, she looks so good i hope they keep that hairstyle and im so excited for the Marvels!
Philip Baker Hall as Seinfeld's famous library cop truly saves this episode, preventing it from being thrown into among the pit of mostly forgettable episodes that make up the early days of Seinfeld. There's another amusing side story with Kramer that goes nowhere but besides these, The Library doesn't give much else to gloat about.
haven't seen an MCU show this dynamic! can't believe this is iman's first role, she is so natural. i love the family dynamic and the south asian representation in this. fantastic all around. also, a ryan penagos cameo!
amazing just like any other Marvel productions. they're on a winning streak
Has style, isn’t soulless and genuinely great to look at. I’m in
