It tries to stretch a 20 minute story out into an hour and is really boring

BottledBodhisvata posted:I like Charlie Brooker's Screen/News/Whatever-Wipe show. What is Black Mirror I have not heard of Black Mirror please tell me everything It's a show that wants to be the modern X-Files or Twilight Zone but is actually long, drawn-out, poorly written sci-fi that drags on for seemigly ever before anything remotely interesting happens Imagine if Robert Heinlein and Stephen King wrote sci-fi about things they barely understood and were preachy about it

If that's the only interesting thing about the show they could have made it 5 minutes long and saved a lot of time and money

hemale in pain posted:i bet you watched every episode I watched the first 3, but gave up when I realized nothing interesting was going to happen, and it took forever to get through each one. I think it's the glacial pacing that really kills them. As I said earlier, it's 20 minutes of story (if that) padded out to an hour.

It's pretty funny that the only episode everyone says is good stars an American actor. I'm a big fan of a lot of British TV shows and I can't think of any others this can be said about.

Alan Smithee posted:sometimes profound often silly Yeah but compared to lots of other British shows, it's not. It's really bad in comparison. To give you an idea of where I'm coming from, here are some of the shows I like: League of Gentlemen The Fall The IT Crowd Little Britain Come Fly With Me Peep Show (watched every episode twice) Hyperdrive The Top of the Lake Snuff Box and a bunch of others that are old like Monty Python and Red Dwarf My point isn't that they're stereotypically British or anything like that. It's that they are entertaining to watch. Black Mirror is just dull as gently caress in comparison to them.

khwarezm posted:Most episodes are 45 minutes except for one, which is an hour. They all set up unique stories, characters, universes and situations with buildup and payoff contained entirely within the episode. tell ya what bro, try some good shows,like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ma1ANqpT6Ws&t=20s
