1 Hang The Dj 2 USS Callister 3 Black Museum 4 Crocodile 5 Metalhead 6 Arkangel Arkangel was the weakest imo and that was disappointing because they were hyping it up in the trailer and i had high hopes. It was very boring too
I would actually switch Arkangel and Black Museum, and put USS Callister as #2 personally. Arkangel was predictable and honestly boring to me. But good list :) I think there’s no wrong answer for best to worst black mirror episodes as they’re all well made, it’s just a matter of what individually people liked best
No episode is by far the best, it's a close race no matter which direction you go. Personally, while the payoff was great, the stories of the Black Museum weren't nearly as interesting as "White Christmas" before it. The one about transferred consciousness in particular left a lot to be desired.
Guess I'm one of the very few people who loved the cold twisted Crocodile. 1. Crocodile 2. USS Callister 3. Hang The DJ 4. Black Museum 5. Arkangel 6. Metalhead
Before even watching the video, let's see.... partly debatable, but: 1. 99.8 2. Star trek 3. Black museum 4. parent control app 5. Robo dog 6. Murder and memory
I thought USS Callister was one of the worst this season! So much of it didn't really make sense and the technology seems the least plausible. I still enjoyed it but I was just scratching my head about how none of it made sense the whole time
Crocodile is probably one of the most underrated Black Mirror shows ever! People have boxed in Black Mirror so much into a "techy" show that if it isn't ultra-techy like Crocodile isn't or isn't commenting on tech in society explicitly then it's not quality or it doesn't "feel" like black mirror. I'm honestly triggered! I hate how everyone has such a monochromatic unilateral perspective about black mirror bar National Anthem. It's so frustrating. The show isn't even meant to be a "tech horror". It's meant to use tech as a vehicle to show the complexities of humanity.
Aaron D I don't agree. I don't consider BM to be "tech" show. But I feel like great idea of the Crocodile was wasted. I've been missing main character hopless struggles (maybe there wasn't any...?), ending was good but not great. It was horrible story, but I was missing sth. Bigger tension?
I would say if anything represented a typical Black Mirror episode.... Crocodile would be that episode. It’s dark. It’s not “drama” it’s intense and beyond screwed up, just like a Black Mirror episode should be. Crocodile was my favorite just because it was the most impactful and the most creepy (that song at the end)
headbite alien Don't get me wrong, I liked it, just the least out of all of them. For me, there were so many possibilities, and everything shown as she was a child was super intriguing and setting it up to be my fav episode of the season. However when she became a teen, the story went down a kind of predictable path that would've been ok if I could latch on to the characters, but I didn't like the teen at all. Still interesting, but I couldn't relate personally to her so it didn't catch me. Still a good ep, just my least fav of the season
I think every Ranking is well-founded if it contains Metahlhead and Arkangel on Rank 5 and 6, USS C. , Black Museum and Crocodile were DARK and just real Black Mirror like
Here's my list on the episodes 1. USS Callister 2. Black museum 3. Crocodile 4. Metal head 5. Hang the dj 6. Arkangel There was a lot of hype for Arkangel but it was really predictable and boring
i thought i would love the black museum but when the final atraction was that, it kinda lost me, i was waiting for something more for the FINAL ATTRACTION
I thought Crocodile was fucking terrible. The main character was so I unlikeable and I felt no sympathy for her whatsoever so it really had no impact on me and when she was caught I was just like okay good... So I watched an hour of nothing
Gianni Yeah, I agree that was clever and it was a pretty good twist that the baby was blind so she didn't even have to kill him. But for me it didn't make up for the rest of the episode which felt like a shitty lifetime movie
Madeline Kildee Shitty lifetime movie? Wow. This was a thrilling episode showing the kind of paranoia that tech that can read your memories can induce. Any small mistake can lead you into a panic since you'll almost always get caught and the confession will be rooted out of you. Fantastic episode with great pacing and an accurate depiction of someone digging their own hole and the tragedy of being a victim of circumstance.
For me: 1. Hang the DJ - great (personally like love stories so sue me) 2. USS Callister - great (driving plot, individual and nuanced characters, incredible acting, edge of your seat, unexpected ending) 3. Black Museum - good (interesting concepts, likable character, somewhat unrealistic actions, sometimes too many plots at once) 4. Arkangel - okay (predictable and basic, edgy-teen-cliché) 5. Crocodile - bad (relied too much on anxiety driven plot, zero connection to characters) 6. Metalhead - terrible (Zero connection to character, simplistic writing, depressing to the point of not even motivated enough to finish episode, amateur concept and delivery, thinks that because it's b&w it's gonna get artsy points when it's story is bad.)
I think having the robot dogs controlled by a group of video game players whom believe they are playing a video game would have improved it's scope - the warehouse guys were greedy but in my idea, they really over do it.
Could you possibly do a updated video of your all time ranked episode please? also it would be amazing to here your take on the universe/timeline theories out there
she also looked like she was 30... i don't think that she passed well as a 15 year old. there are ways to show immaturity and compulsiveness in a character without them being annoying.
My personal ranking, do you have any thoughts ? 19) The Waldo moment 🐻 18) Hang the DJ ❤️ 17) The Entire History of you 👁 16) White bear 🐼 15) Be right back 👫 14) Metalhead 🐕 13) Arkangel 👩👧 12) Hated in The Nation 🐝 11) Men against fire 🔫 10) Nosedive ⭐️ 9) Black Museum ⚫️ 8) The National Anthem 🐷 7) Fifteen Million Merits 🎤 6) San Junipero 🏖 5) White Christmas 🎄 4) Playtest 🎮 3) Uss Callister 🚀 2) Crocodile 🐊 1) Shut up and dance 💻 My favorite season of black mirror is season 3, what is yours ?
While the premise was solid, I think the Waldo Moment missed on the execution in every way possible. Characters weren't interesting, dialog was just passable, narrative didn't do anything memorable, and the climax fell entirely short of anything remarkable. Still well shot, and acted, just very little to offer otherwise.
Nosedive has one of the saddest most heartbreaking endings I could ever have imagined. Arkangel too. I mean, that mother still forgave her after her daughter beat her literally senseless and Lacie still loved her friend even though Naomi cared about was the points, Naomi felt embarrassed about how many points Lacie had.
I would put black museum higher but I mostly agree with this especially arkangle and hang the dj both of the stories were really powerful and was executed very well. the acting was so good and I was really hooked on both of these episodes and the whole cinematic feel was so good.
1. Hang the DJ (easily the best, for me its one of the best love stories ever told in just 50 minutes: 10/10) 2. Black Museum (3 apparent individual stories that all connected in the end. The entire episode had my eyes glued to the screen: 10/10) 3. USS Callister (surprising first act and is arguably the most solid episode of the season: 9/10) 4. Arkangel (underrated, this was the episode that I was most looking forward to and it didn't disappoint. Many people are overlooking the themes the episode is trying to address: 8/10) 5. Metal Head (Didn't like it at first because I wanted more story because I was so invested in the world! But the Cat and Mouse narrative was actually quite gripping: 8/10) 6. Crocodile (Cool concept at first and I initially rated it better than Metalhead but the main character was not interesting nor were her motivations clear. You could have guessed how the story was going to pan out. The only WTF moment was the baby but that was a cheap twist imo: 7/10)
"hang th dj" the classic useless and boring love episode. Crocodile and USS Callister the best so far. you ranked it for last. dude what kind of drug do you use?
my list: 1) Hang the DJ 2) Arkangel 3) USS Callister 4) Crocodile 5) Metalhead 6) Black Museum 3 and 4 flip back and forth though edit: OUR LISTS ARE EXACTLY THE SAME???
My ranking of the entire show: 19. The Waldo Moment 18. The National Anthem 17. Arkangel 16. Playtest 15. Be Right Back 14. Metalhead 13. Crocodile 12. Men Against Fire 11. The Entire History of You 10. Fifteen Million Merits 9. Hated in the Nation 8. White Bear 7. Black Museum 6. Shut up and Dance 5. Nosedive 4. San Junipero 3. Hang the DJ 2. USS Callister 1. White Christmas 19-11 were relatively easy to rank but boy ranking the top 10 were hard. I just keep remembering how much I enjoyed each episode and how I wanted to put it higher, but then I also want to put the other episodes higher cause all of them are so goddamn good. Like even Waldo was fucking amazing and that was last on my list. Black Mirror really just can’t go wrong for me. The show is absolutely genius.
I guess either you enjoy it or you don't, because I seriously don't see what to dislike about it. I loved the tension, the photography, the acting, the Boston Dynamics-style robot technology being put to use in a terrifying way. I love the chase, the panic, and the bleakness of the world. I loved that it was a simple narrative without a ton of characters or dialogue, and that the story was able to be told in such a concise way; I felt that this gave it more power. It sucked me in emotionally and kept me there the whole time. It was one of the most engaging episodes of the show for me.
Garrett Gibbons well said. It's easily my top 3 for season 4 (with Hang the DJ and Black Museum), you summed it up wonderfully... there isn't much to add. These things are designed to destroy anything with a heartbeat and stop at nothing to do so. The opening scene when we first see the the dog and the dude falls off the ladder, there's a slow motion shot of her turning and screaming with the violins in the background that's just amazing. I love when he tries to bash it with a metal pole of something, the dog is completely unfazed and shakes it off before shooting him in the shoulder. They're completely frightening -- how anyone can be bored with this episode is beyond me. I love they way the dogs move, the sounds they make, their vision... how it slowly turns its body to scan the scenery. The way they instantly hack anything mechanical. And when it attached the kitchen knife to its broken arm?! Holy shit! Oh well, different folks / strokes, right? I love the episode. I read an interesting theory on how if San Junipero was a heaven type digital afterlife this was the equivalent to a digital hell people are put it with the dogs being remotely controlled somewhere distant. I dunno how much I buy that and just take the episode for what it is but thought it was interesting at the very least.
Black Museum should’ve just been a tour of the objects rather than the forced revenge ending. Plus I feel Metal Head is VERY underrated, it’s such a well paced episode
1. Hang the Dj 2. USS Callister 3. Black Museum 4. Metalhead (people don't give it enough credit bc it's a different narrative style than most other episodes) 5. Arkangel 6. Crocodile I hated crocodile it wasnt very engaging and I never sympathized with the murder lady but if I did it would have made the episode more interesting.also more of a play on the memory thing would have been cool.
Thank you for not overhyping Black Museum like every other person and channel. Everything I saw said how Black Museum was amazing and the greatest episode ever and when I watched it I just didn't feel like it was that great. I was hoping for something more involving the doctor to happen. 1. Crocodile 2. Arkangel 3. Hang the DJ 4. USS Callister 5. Black Museum 6. Metalhead

Did he really put Hang the DJ at number 1? What a fucking joke. It was like a less interesting San Junipero for straight people. Easily one of the weakest storylines in the whole show.
With Crocodile, I felt that it showed with the technology it had with looking into people's past memories was and thus being more able to catch and solve crimes, would crime actually decline or become worse because people will go to lengths to ensure memories aren't used against just like what the character did
My ranking: 1. Crocodile 2. Black Museum 3. Hang the DJ 4. USS Callister/Arkangel (undecided) 5. Metalhead I feel like this is the most controversial season. If i ever watched Star Treck, or something similar, i probably would have rated it higher :)

My personal ranking: 1. Hang the DJ (I know it is the most mainstream one or whatever, I am still obsessed with it) 2. Metalhead 3. Arkangel 4. USS Callister 5. Black Museum 6. Crocodile I change my mind a lot tho
I love USS Callister the most! When I started watching that one, I was like “holy shit.” This episode was the most hard to watch at the end. Dude getting stuck in the game, just sitting on his chair.
I personally really disliked Hang The DJ, I feel like it just took things to a whole new level in regards to having your whole life based on finding the "perfect one", though I can understand it's portrayal of technology.
1.) Black Museum 2.) USS Callister 3.) Arkangel 4.) Hang the DJ 5,)Metalhead 6.)Crocodile I understand why people like Crocodile for breaking boundaries but personally they didn’t need to and that episode was just dark and depressing.

My list from worst to best is: Crocodile Arkangel Metalhead USS Callister Hang The DJ Black Museum I thought Black museum was hands down the best episode of the entire series. Bringing the whole thing together, and doing fantastic nods to other television series too. I think you should rewatch it, I can see if you don't pay full attention it could seem silly and just trying to be another white christmas, but I thought it took the ideas of white christmas and perfected them.
1. Black Museum 2. Hang The DJ 3. Crocodile 4. USS Callister 5. Metalhead (loved the style and the bravery of the episode, free from extra and useless info) 6. Arkangel
1. USS Callister 2. Black Museum 3. Hang the DJ 4. Arkangel 5. Metalhead 6. Crocodile I did like Crocodile, but it just didn't feel very unique or impactful like a Black Mirror episode. Other than the technology it could have just been an especially dark ITV drama.
it was really hard for me to rank the first four because I really loved them all, so I based my decision on how much I was wondering about how it would end and how much I felt for the characters. So my list has to be: 1. USS Callister 2. Hang the DJ 3. Arkangel 4. Black Museum 5. Crocodile 6. Metalhead Metalhead is my two least favourite episode after Hated in the Nation. To me it was just not enough story. Most of the time, Black Mirror brings me to think about life, technology and about how I would feel and act in this kind of scenario. But metalhead... nope. There was not much about it for me.
For me its deffinetly 6. Arkangel 5. Hang the Dj 4. Crocodile 3. Metalhead 2. Black musem 1. Uss calister I think all episode are great, but this is my personal ranking.
It's funny to see how different everyone rankes the episode from one another. My ranking would be: 1. Hang the dj 2. Black Museum 3. USS Calister 4. Crocodile 5. Metalhead 6. Arkangel
1. Hang the DJ: I love everything about, especially the twist. 2. USS Calister: Super interesting and entertaining, with a happy ending. 3. Black Museum: A worse version of white Christmas, yet really good 4. Arkangel: Interesting idea, yet way to predictable 5. Metalhead: Cool but it was a little boring, and short 6.Crocodile: I absolutely despise this episode
I have it: 1. USS Callister 2. Hang the DJ 3. Crocodile 4. Arkangel 5. Black Museum 6. Metal Head Another great collection all around, season 3 is still the best of the bunch, but not a dud to be found. The fact that there's so much debate about episode order shows how strong they are. So far "the Waldo Moment" is the only outright useless episode of the series for me.
For me, 1. Black Museum (loved every minute of it) 2. U.S.S. Calister 3. Hang the DJ 4. Crocodile (I like it much more after I finished the season) 5. Metalhead (loved the noir feel) 6. Arkangel (I think Jodie Foster did a great job directing it, but the casting and writing was weak)
This is how i see it... 1. Hang the Dj 2.Crocodile 3.Black Museum 4.Uss Callister 5.Metal Head 6.Arkangel Now, i know you gonna be mad but i rank the show by holding my attention, plot twist & X-factor lol
partial agreement, I thought that the last episode was one of the best but that is my dark and creepy theme that I like a lot probably, the rest I agree with although Arkangel for number 2 seems a bit high as it was very predictable about what would happen
My Ranking (not like you care): 6) Metalhead - I do not understand this episode. 5) Black Museum - The only thing interesting here was the teddy bear story. 4) Arkangel - Last moments got it here. 3) Crocodile - Hamsters save the day again. 2) U.S.S. Callister - Taking my pussy is a red line! 1) Hang The DJ - The DJ was hanged and i am crying. This season is a 9/10 vERy NicE.
Seeing Black Museum ranked last. I paused the video at 1:48 🤔. How Sway?
1 Hang The Dj
2 USS Callister
3 Black Museum
4 Crocodile
5 Metalhead
6 Arkangel
Arkangel was the weakest imo and that was disappointing because they were hyping it up in the trailer and i had high hopes. It was very boring too
I'd agree
drinmndz I’m 100 with that list.
drinmndz agreed
drinmndz why do you like Hang the DJ so much?
I think this is probably my exact list as well! Cheers
I would actually switch Arkangel and Black Museum, and put USS Callister as #2 personally. Arkangel was predictable and honestly boring to me. But good list :) I think there’s no wrong answer for best to worst black mirror episodes as they’re all well made, it’s just a matter of what individually people liked best
Exactly it was so boring
Amber Davis I
I couldn’t agree more ark angel was boring as hell what’s this guy thinking putting black museum last it was excellent
Me too I didn't enjoy Arkangel, the actors acted pretty bad and it was a bit predictable...
Amber Davis Yea ArkAngel was a one giant cliché
Black Museum is by far the best episode in this season... And you put it in the last position...
Its called an OPINION
agreed omg
No episode is by far the best, it's a close race no matter which direction you go. Personally, while the payoff was great, the stories of the Black Museum weren't nearly as interesting as "White Christmas" before it. The one about transferred consciousness in particular left a lot to be desired.
Black Museum is actually my least favorite episode of the whole series besides for Waldo. I don't see the love for it
My rankings
1) USS Callister
2) Hang the dj
3) Black museum
4) Crocodrile
5) Arkangel
6) Metalhead
Cream Puff Agreed
agreed
Cream Puff We agree on our first two favorites 😎
this is my ranking except I can't decide between 3,4,5. but top 1 and 2 are definite and metalhead is definitely last hehe. happy to see your ranking!
That is literally mine exactly haha
Guess I'm one of the very few people who loved the cold twisted Crocodile.
1. Crocodile
2. USS Callister
3. Hang The DJ
4. Black Museum
5. Arkangel
6. Metalhead
Night Ghostess this is exactly my list !
Night Ghostess Not alone,Crocodile was a fantastic episode
Your list is mine exactly
I also am wondering why no one likes Crocodile
you're fucking right. Crocodile and USS Calisster best episodes so far. I switch Black Museum with Metalhead position, then you have my list
Actually it's the predictable, trashy, pointless Crocodile.
Personally I would say
1. USS Callister
2. Black Museum
3. Arkangel
4. Hang the DJ
5. Crocodile
6. Metalhead
Jacob Bradshaw nice list, id have them ranked similiar.
Wait what?
Metal head was awesome except for the last scene. Should be medicine.
I agree with the list but i would switch hang the dj and metalhead
1 Black Museum
2 Hang the DJ
3 USS Callister
4 Metalhead
5 Arkangel
6 Crocodile
crocodile in the Last position? what kind of drug do you use?
Before even watching the video, let's see.... partly debatable, but:
1. 99.8
2. Star trek
3. Black museum
4. parent control app
5. Robo dog
6. Murder and memory
xyhmo The ranking is terrible but your titles are basically on point
USS Callister was definitely the best episode of season 4. Crocodile being the worst in my opinion.
fun fact I think the exact opposite USS calister story is a bunch of nonsense and so freaking predictable
brainXzero each to their own I guess 😂
and what? crocodile was really predictable too.
A C yes it was a fun wild ride and it has a happy ending
I thought USS Callister was one of the worst this season! So much of it didn't really make sense and the technology seems the least plausible. I still enjoyed it but I was just scratching my head about how none of it made sense the whole time
My list is a bit unique I guess:
1) Hang the DJ
2) Crocodile
3) Arkangel
4) Metalhead
5) USS Callister
6) Black Museum
Crocodile is probably one of the most underrated Black Mirror shows ever! People have boxed in Black Mirror so much into a "techy" show that if it isn't ultra-techy like Crocodile isn't or isn't commenting on tech in society explicitly then it's not quality or it doesn't "feel" like black mirror. I'm honestly triggered! I hate how everyone has such a monochromatic unilateral perspective about black mirror bar National Anthem. It's so frustrating. The show isn't even meant to be a "tech horror". It's meant to use tech as a vehicle to show the complexities of humanity.
Aaron D I don't agree. I don't consider BM to be "tech" show. But I feel like great idea of the Crocodile was wasted. I've been missing main character hopless struggles (maybe there wasn't any...?), ending was good but not great. It was horrible story, but I was missing sth. Bigger tension?
Wait what? I mean I can't explain it any further. I just don't agree. I think this just comes down to opinion and taste.
Aaron D
I know, right!!
Aaron D completely agree
101% Agree with you!
I would say if anything represented a typical Black Mirror episode.... Crocodile would be that episode. It’s dark. It’s not “drama” it’s intense and beyond screwed up, just like a Black Mirror episode should be. Crocodile was my favorite just because it was the most impactful and the most creepy (that song at the end)
For me:
#1. Hang the DJ
#2. USS Callister
#3. Crocodile
#4. Black Museum
#5. Metalhead
#6. Arkangel
How come you didn't like Arkangel?
It was one of my favourites :)
headbite alien Don't get me wrong, I liked it, just the least out of all of them. For me, there were so many possibilities, and everything shown as she was a child was super intriguing and setting it up to be my fav episode of the season. However when she became a teen, the story went down a kind of predictable path that would've been ok if I could latch on to the characters, but I didn't like the teen at all. Still interesting, but I couldn't relate personally to her so it didn't catch me. Still a good ep, just my least fav of the season
this is my exact order. Black Museum and Metalhead are tied for me, but in the same spot. I honestly really loved this season.
Kenzie Tysl This season was great! Hang the DJ is probably one of my favorites of the entire show
Hang the DJ was so bad I seriously cannot see the appeal. Probably the worst episode in the whole show
I think every Ranking is well-founded if it contains Metahlhead and Arkangel on Rank 5 and 6, USS C. , Black Museum and Crocodile were DARK and just real Black Mirror like
Here's my list on the episodes
1. USS Callister
2. Black museum
3. Crocodile
4. Metal head
5. Hang the dj
6. Arkangel
There was a lot of hype for Arkangel but it was really predictable and boring
Freya Owen glad to see different opinions, and some love for crocodile
Freya Owen me exactly!
Freya Owen Good List. Crocodile was my favorite, it was the most impactful but USS Callister was a close 2nd. Black Museum is fun to watch.
Freya Owen that’s the only appropriate ranking I’ve seen so far
that is exactly what i would put
I'd say:
1. USS Calister - excellent
2. Hang the DJ - excellent
3. Black Museum - good
4. Arkangel - decent
5. Crocodile - decent
6. Metalhead - shit
Agreed but I'd change 'decent' to 'meh'
arkangel was so good i don’t see how people dislike it so much
Adam Marks metalhead was one of the best episode what are you talking about
elle i think metalhead is a love hate episode
Adam Marks I almost exactly agree with you, but I felt more from Metalhead than Crocodile.
i thought i would love the black museum but when the final atraction was that, it kinda lost me, i was waiting for something more for the FINAL ATTRACTION
I realize the plot of metal head wasn’t great but it was one of the only times I felt genuinely scared watching black mirror
1) Nosedive
And the rest are pretty superb
Hey, I really love your videos! After I watch a black mirror episode I always watch your analysis
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You're the best black mirror analyst ever
I loved nosedive lol
agreed
1) Hang the DJ
2) Black Museum
3) USS Callister
4) Metalhead
5) Arkangel
6) Crocodile (why the fuck do people like this episode)
I thought Crocodile was fucking terrible. The main character was so I unlikeable and I felt no sympathy for her whatsoever so it really had no impact on me and when she was caught I was just like okay good... So I watched an hour of nothing
Madeline Kildee I thought the ending was hilarious that after all the fucked up shit she does it was a hamster that got her in the end
Gianni Yeah, I agree that was clever and it was a pretty good twist that the baby was blind so she didn't even have to kill him. But for me it didn't make up for the rest of the episode which felt like a shitty lifetime movie
Madeline Kildee Shitty lifetime movie? Wow. This was a thrilling episode showing the kind of paranoia that tech that can read your memories can induce. Any small mistake can lead you into a panic since you'll almost always get caught and the confession will be rooted out of you. Fantastic episode with great pacing and an accurate depiction of someone digging their own hole and the tragedy of being a victim of circumstance.
1)Black museum
2)USS callister
3)Hang the DJ
4)Metalhead
5)Crocodile
6)Arkangel
People give USS Callister too much credit. Crocodile is easily the best episode from season 4.
am I the only one who likes Metalhead here?😐
Geida Kalia my favorite
I thought it was brilliant.
I loved it
I hated it the first time but I’ve grown to quite like it
For me:
1. Hang the DJ - great (personally like love stories so sue me)
2. USS Callister - great (driving plot, individual and nuanced characters, incredible acting, edge of your seat, unexpected ending)
3. Black Museum - good (interesting concepts, likable character, somewhat unrealistic actions, sometimes too many plots at once)
4. Arkangel - okay (predictable and basic, edgy-teen-cliché)
5. Crocodile - bad (relied too much on anxiety driven plot, zero connection to characters)
6. Metalhead - terrible (Zero connection to character, simplistic writing, depressing to the point of not even motivated enough to finish episode, amateur concept and delivery, thinks that because it's b&w it's gonna get artsy points when it's story is bad.)
I think having the robot dogs controlled by a group of video game players whom believe they are playing a video game would have improved it's scope - the warehouse guys were greedy but in my idea, they really over do it.
Could you possibly do a updated video of your all time ranked episode please? also it would be amazing to here your take on the universe/timeline theories out there
I think the character of Sarah was played well in Archangel, she's a teenager, she's supposed to be annoying
she also looked like she was 30... i don't think that she passed well as a 15 year old. there are ways to show immaturity and compulsiveness in a character without them being annoying.
mya toone the costume choices were a bit strange, definitely added several years to her. I was probably that annoying when I was 15 though

Why does the Waldo Moment get so much hate?? It’s my top episode
maybe because they hate waldo
Probably because they cant find Waldo
Mee too had the same doubt
While the premise was solid, I think the Waldo Moment missed on the execution in every way possible. Characters weren't interesting, dialog was just passable, narrative didn't do anything memorable, and the climax fell entirely short of anything remarkable. Still well shot, and acted, just very little to offer otherwise.
Me too I can just count 5 episodes right now that are worse than The Waldo Moment
Worst to best

My List:

2) Black Musuem

6) Crocodile
Nosedive has one of the saddest most heartbreaking endings I could ever have imagined. Arkangel too. I mean, that mother still forgave her after her daughter beat her literally senseless and Lacie still loved her friend even though Naomi cared about was the points, Naomi felt embarrassed about how many points Lacie had.
I would put black museum higher but I mostly agree with this especially arkangle and hang the dj both of the stories were really powerful and was executed very well. the acting was so good and I was really hooked on both of these episodes and the whole cinematic feel was so good.
1. Hang the DJ (easily the best, for me its one of the best love stories ever told in just 50 minutes: 10/10)
2. Black Museum (3 apparent individual stories that all connected in the end. The entire episode had my eyes glued to the screen: 10/10)
3. USS Callister (surprising first act and is arguably the most solid episode of the season: 9/10)
4. Arkangel (underrated, this was the episode that I was most looking forward to and it didn't disappoint. Many people are overlooking the themes the episode is trying to address: 8/10)
5. Metal Head (Didn't like it at first because I wanted more story because I was so invested in the world! But the Cat and Mouse narrative was actually quite gripping: 8/10)
6. Crocodile (Cool concept at first and I initially rated it better than Metalhead but the main character was not interesting nor were her motivations clear. You could have guessed how the story was going to pan out. The only WTF moment was the baby but that was a cheap twist imo: 7/10)
No. 6
How are the motives not clear?
"hang th dj" the classic useless and boring love episode. Crocodile and USS Callister the best so far. you ranked it for last. dude what kind of drug do you use?
Yess, hang the dj was the best, really love the moment they explain the 99.8 figure, but emotional episode overall.
The foreshadowing in Hang The DJ was about as subtle as being hit by a truck
my list:
1) Hang the DJ
2) Arkangel
3) USS Callister
4) Crocodile
5) Metalhead
6) Black Museum
3 and 4 flip back and forth though
edit: OUR LISTS ARE EXACTLY THE SAME???

19-11 were relatively easy to rank but boy ranking the top 10 were hard. I just keep remembering how much I enjoyed each episode and how I wanted to put it higher, but then I also want to put the other episodes higher cause all of them are so goddamn good. Like even Waldo was fucking amazing and that was last on my list. Black Mirror really just can’t go wrong for me. The show is absolutely genius.
Why does nobody have any love for Metalhead??
I loved it
I liked it, just thought it was a bit slow due to lack of dialogue.
What do you find good about it?
(Serious question, I really don't see it)
I guess either you enjoy it or you don't, because I seriously don't see what to dislike about it. I loved the tension, the photography, the acting, the Boston Dynamics-style robot technology being put to use in a terrifying way. I love the chase, the panic, and the bleakness of the world. I loved that it was a simple narrative without a ton of characters or dialogue, and that the story was able to be told in such a concise way; I felt that this gave it more power. It sucked me in emotionally and kept me there the whole time. It was one of the most engaging episodes of the show for me.
Garrett Gibbons well said. It's easily my top 3 for season 4 (with Hang the DJ and Black Museum), you summed it up wonderfully... there isn't much to add. These things are designed to destroy anything with a heartbeat and stop at nothing to do so. The opening scene when we first see the the dog and the dude falls off the ladder, there's a slow motion shot of her turning and screaming with the violins in the background that's just amazing.
I love when he tries to bash it with a metal pole of something, the dog is completely unfazed and shakes it off before shooting him in the shoulder. They're completely frightening -- how anyone can be bored with this episode is beyond me.
I love they way the dogs move, the sounds they make, their vision... how it slowly turns its body to scan the scenery. The way they instantly hack anything mechanical. And when it attached the kitchen knife to its broken arm?! Holy shit!
Oh well, different folks / strokes, right? I love the episode. I read an interesting theory on how if San Junipero was a heaven type digital afterlife this was the equivalent to a digital hell people are put it with the dogs being remotely controlled somewhere distant. I dunno how much I buy that and just take the episode for what it is but thought it was interesting at the very least.
Death is not the only option in Metalhead. It's only the only option when you want to get a stuffed bear for your kid.
Black Museum should’ve just been a tour of the objects rather than the forced revenge ending. Plus I feel Metal Head is VERY underrated, it’s such a well paced episode
1. Hang the Dj
2. USS Callister
3. Black Museum
4. Metalhead (people don't give it enough credit bc it's a different narrative style than most other episodes)
5. Arkangel
6. Crocodile
I hated crocodile it wasnt very engaging and I never sympathized with the murder lady but if I did it would have made the episode more interesting.also more of a play on the memory thing would have been cool.
Thats a fair enough comment about crocodile!
Agreed, it didnt use the technology enough
I would of love it if the story was more focus on the insurance lady
Nick yes i agree metalhead was great i don’t understand how so many people disliked it
elle it had absolutely no purpose and dragged on without getting anywhere.

Thank you for not overhyping Black Museum like every other person and channel. Everything I saw said how Black Museum was amazing and the greatest episode ever and when I watched it I just didn't feel like it was that great. I was hoping for something more involving the doctor to happen.

I disagree with so many placing on your list but each to their own I guess
I just now that my top 4 from best to worst is The Entire History of You, Shut Up and Dance, White Christmas, Hang the DJ
I'd have Be RIght back in the top five

6. Arkangel
Did he really put Hang the DJ at number 1? What a fucking joke. It was like a less interesting San Junipero for straight people. Easily one of the weakest storylines in the whole show.
With Crocodile, I felt that it showed with the technology it had with looking into people's past memories was and thus being more able to catch and solve crimes, would crime actually decline or become worse because people will go to lengths to ensure memories aren't used against just like what the character did
My ranking:
1. Crocodile

I feel like this is the most controversial season.
If i ever watched Star Treck, or something similar, i probably would have rated it higher :)

Why do you think waldo is the worst!! I don't get it.
Black museum being ranked the last is just absurd. It binds all stories together- all of black mirror. Metalhead deserves to be ranked last imo

My list from worst to best is:
Crocodile

Black Museum
I thought Black museum was hands down the best episode of the entire series. Bringing the whole thing together, and doing fantastic nods to other television series too. I think you should rewatch it, I can see if you don't pay full attention it could seem silly and just trying to be another white christmas, but I thought it took the ideas of white christmas and perfected them.
Honestly I’ve seen all the episodes and I personally think that black museum was the best but I appreciate your opinion
1. Black Museum
2. Hang The DJ

I did like Crocodile, but it just didn't feel very unique or impactful like a Black Mirror episode. Other than the technology it could have just been an especially dark ITV drama.
1.) USS Callister: A-
2.) Metalhead: B+
3.) Crocodile: B
4.) Arkangel: B
5.) Black Museum: C
6.) Hang the DJ: C-
it was really hard for me to rank the first four because I really loved them all, so I based my decision on how much I was wondering about how it would end and how much I felt for the characters. So my list has to be:
1. USS Callister
2. Hang the DJ
3. Arkangel
4. Black Museum
5. Crocodile
6. Metalhead
Metalhead is my two least favourite episode after Hated in the Nation. To me it was just not enough story. Most of the time, Black Mirror brings me to think about life, technology and about how I would feel and act in this kind of scenario. But metalhead... nope. There was not much about it for me.
For me its deffinetly
6. Arkangel
5. Hang the Dj
4. Crocodile
3. Metalhead
2. Black musem
1. Uss calister
I think all episode are great, but this is my personal ranking.
My personal list would be:
1. Hang the DJ
2. USS Callister
3. Black Museum
4. Metalhead
5. Crocodile
6. Arkangel
It's funny to see how different everyone rankes the episode from one another. My ranking would be:
1. Hang the dj
2. Black Museum
3. USS Calister
4. Crocodile
5. Metalhead
6. Arkangel
1. Hang the DJ: I love everything about, especially the twist.
2. USS Calister: Super interesting and entertaining, with a happy ending.
3. Black Museum: A worse version of white Christmas, yet really good
4. Arkangel: Interesting idea, yet way to predictable
5. Metalhead: Cool but it was a little boring, and short
6.Crocodile: I absolutely despise this episode
I have it:
1. USS Callister
2. Hang the DJ
3. Crocodile
4. Arkangel
5. Black Museum
6. Metal Head
Another great collection all around, season 3 is still the best of the bunch, but not a dud to be found. The fact that there's so much debate about episode order shows how strong they are. So far "the Waldo Moment" is the only outright useless episode of the series for me.
Only thing you got right was putting Hang the DJ first.
I'd say:
1) Hang the DJ
2) USS Callister
3) Black Museum
4) Crocodile
5) Arkangel
6)Metalhead
For me,
1. Black Museum (loved every minute of it)
2. U.S.S. Calister
3. Hang the DJ
4. Crocodile (I like it much more after I finished the season)
5. Metalhead (loved the noir feel)
6. Arkangel (I think Jodie Foster did a great job directing it, but the casting and writing was weak)
My list goes...
(Best to least)
1.Crocodile
2.Hang the DJ
3 Uss. Callistar

5 Arkangle

My Rankings:
1) Black Museum
2) USS Callister
3) Hang the DJ
4) Arkangel
5) Crocodile
6) Metalhead
partial agreement, I thought that the last episode was one of the best but that is my dark and creepy theme that I like a lot probably, the rest I agree with although Arkangel for number 2 seems a bit high as it was very predictable about what would happen
My Ranking (not like you care):
6) Metalhead - I do not understand this episode.
5) Black Museum - The only thing interesting here was the teddy bear story.
4) Arkangel - Last moments got it here.
3) Crocodile - Hamsters save the day again.
2) U.S.S. Callister - Taking my pussy is a red line!
1) Hang The DJ - The DJ was hanged and i am crying.
This season is a 9/10
