Another new trailer for Black Mirror season seven has dropped along with a synopsis for every single episode and its cast!

I have never watched this. Is it worth it?

@DocSpock - I think some of the early seasons were hit or miss for most people. USS Calister is ironically the last episode I watched, the show just isn’t my cup of tea.

@DocSpock - Some of the episodes are amazing. Others not so much. It’s kind of a modern take on the Twilight Zone in a way, but with a heavy dose of technology and its potential impacts on us thrown in.

@DocSpock - 100% YES. I am a huge fan of the classic Twilight Zone.

BM has often given me the same feel. Some episodes are better than others, but I highly recommend watching them al- almost all of them...

@DocSpock - The first 4 seasons were amazing for the most part (some hit-or-miss episodes here or there, but overall great). The last 2 unfortunately were not.
This seems like a return to form and a return to the kind of storytelling we got from the earlier seasons - especially with a revisiting of some of the previous season favorite episodes.

IF you can get into some of those earlier season episodes, then you'll likely love this one too.

As far the USS Calister episode, once Robert Daly is dead, I feel like that's not the worse life. They can't die right? They are just essentially programs living in a Matrix, right? Like he would steal their DNA and then make a version of them in his program?

Once you aren't being tortured or forced to carry out his fantasies, it's basically a version of you who has no responsibilities.

Doesn't sound so bad in today's world.

That's an interesting take! It’s true that once the torture and manipulation stop, the digital versions of the characters in USS Callister don’t experience physical harm. But, while they’re not “alive” in the traditional sense, they do have consciousness and experience emotions, which makes their situation morally complicated. It's like they’re trapped in a simulation, with no agency or freedom, and that lack of control could still feel very oppressive, even if they aren’t physically suffering.

In today’s world, the idea of escaping responsibility and being free from physical pain might seem tempting, but the essence of being human is about having agency and meaningful connections with others. So, it’s the loss of those things that makes the simulated existence more tragic, even if it isn’t as obvious as physical torment. What do you think—would you still see it as not so bad if you were one of those characters?
