Want some really good TV? Black Mirror on Netflix. It's an anthology series, and seems to be a cross between the Outer Limits and the Twilight Zone. I've watched the 1st season in the last few weeks (3 episodes). Episode 1: The daughter of the Duke of Windsor (I think) is kidnapped. The kidnapper is threatening to kill her, unless the PM performs an unspeakable act on live TV. That's all I'll say. Episode 2: In a dystopian society, where people are riding stationary bicycles to provide energy and earn credits, a girl and her friend try to get out of the rut by performing on an "American Idol" type of show. Episode 3: In an alternate reality, everyone has a "grain" implanted in their skin which records everything they see, hear and say. Various characters enjoy watching others' "memories," sometimes with disastrous results. |

Fantastic stuff. Lots of good twists, and some of them are very very disturbing. A summary of season 3, episode 1:

Cool. I'll have to check it out soon. I've been sick as all hell this week, so I can't be in any way productive. I've been on a massive, massive Netflix bender. |
