Song Contest Part XX, Host: Back One Out, Theme: Final Recordings of Bands/Artists That Are No More, Noms Due: Monday, 9pm AEST

I only ever saw one episode of Black Mirror about the British PM being forced to root a pig. Yeah nah. Pass.

That episode was about the control that media has in our lives. The scene towards the end, of the girl at the centre of the kidnapping wandering on a deserted city street whilst all the "concerned" public were glued to their screens to see what happened illustrated the propensity for us to be informed via screens rather than reality.

You should definitely check out other episodes. I reckon San Junipero (Season 3) is one you'll appreciate.

Thanks for the reminder! I've still got to catch up on Season6 of that. Fell behind on so many series over the past two years.

Well it's not such a bad thing to be not glued to your screens is it?

By the same token, I'm not shortlisting very many at all

its probably because i'm in a relatively good mood, i can be extremely picky if not in the right mood

If that's the last season it's a good one, finished it last night. There's one episode which has as good a guest cast as you can get, a band of knights played by Daniel Radcliffe, David Mitchell, Robert Webb and Matt King (with Jack Black as a fancy Viscount).

Shut Up And Dance was a mindf***.

I'd be in the minority that didn't like San Junipero, not for any solid reason but I recall watching it and finding it a bit try hard.

As one of the few non-miserable episodes, really enjoyed Hang the DJ (I understand the irony saying that then seeing the title of the episode).

I didn’t like San Junipero, but I did like USS Calister. Some of the episodes felt like it had made its point quite early, so didn’t make the list.
