National Anthem-1/10
Fifteen Million Merits-4/10
Entire History of You-4/10

Be Right Back-4/10
White Bear-8/10
Waldo Movement-9/10

 

Thats what Ive got so far. Im pretty different from most people from the looks of it. 

What's with all the hate for National Anthem? Maybe not the best episode but god damn is it a ballsy move to open your show with the Prime Minister ******* a pig. I got to respect it for that at least.

It was pretentious.  Like most of the crap episodes.  Of all the episodes, this is the one that should have had that wildly dark, tongue-in-cheek morbid humor.  This one didn't. 

The worst two episodes were this one and Arkangel.  And no, the irony of Arkangel was not lost on me.  It was just horribly done and horribly executed in almost every way.

Don't love National Anthem but didn't mind it either for the reasons @Geek said, it's certainly a bold start to the show. I wasn't a fan of Arkangel either though. Arkangel was too heavy handed with helicopter parenting thing and also introduced other ideas that it barely expanded on that are significantly more interesting than helicopter parenting. After the grandfathers heart attack, I thought it was going to focus more on how damaging to society raising children to never experience stressful situations would be but by the time she was "15" none of that mattered and it was just about her mom invading her privacy. The Kylo Ren looking kid introducing her to porn was hilarious though. 

 

Fwiw, my favorite episode is probably Shut Up and Dance. It's a fun ride the whole way with a really sick reveal by the end. Plus given the opportunity, groups online today like 4chan neckbeards would absolutely blackmail people like that which made it seem more real than others.

Im going to pick back up with season 3 later this week. This show isnt something I can binge. Ill watch a episode and feel bad about myself and society for a few hours. I cant double dip. Cheers to those that can though. 

It takes a special kind of self hate to do it

Anybody seen HBO’s Gunpowder miniseries yet?  It’s been sitting on my DVR for a few weeks now. 

Watched the first episode the acting and costumes were excellent, the story was so incredibly boring and I couldn't convince myself to watch the rest of it. 

I did enjoy Mark Gatiss as the villain though, Worth a watch if you're interested but it's not for me.

Started Room 104 last night. Not spectacular, and if something new comes out I plan to switch over, but its good enough. Pretty creative. I freaking loves James Van Der Beek in the second episode. I would say 7/10 as a season with hopes they make a second because its a good 'filler' type show. Not something to binge, but watch when you don't have a series going.
