I watched several episodes and nearly always have a vague inclination to slash my wrists afterwards.
Not saying the show isn't good, it is, but it is so relentlessly dark I have some trouble watching in anything but small doses.

Pretty much the way I feel too, just bleak.
British "Anthology"
Contemporary Twilight Zone
I didn't expect much however unexpectedly pretty good
Bleak, but very well done.Pretty much the way I feel too, just bleak.
Good enough to watch again, especially with friends just to see their reactions.I'll say this for it, your post has caused me to reflect far more than usual on what I watch.
It's happening, just starting.Bleak is the perfect capsule review for the series.
And I say that as someone that in general loves anything dystopian which should mean I am all over this.
I just have a hard time suspending disbelief (Dredd, Automata, et al) as Black Mirror comes across as way too possible and in some eps, may have already happened.
We binged them New Year's Eve while I was teleworking/On call for my folks ... Woah!
And Metalheads - now THAT Episode was bleak - somewhere between the Terminator, as done with the robots from Boston Dynamics!
Those Boston Dynamic robots have ALWAYS creeped me out! Some go back to 2008!
Perhaps I'll get to this episode tonight.
Six episodes this season does seem rather meager, luckily I have some earlier episodes I missed.
Wish there were more.
It seems each time I log back into a Netflix series for continuation I've found the episodes jump forward so I missed some. I noticed this when I was watching El Chapo when the "next" episode made no sense plot wise.
