Netflix will let individual viewers decide how one episode ends in the new season of Black Mirror

Black Mirror Season 5

This is about as Black Mirror as Black Mirror is going to get.

Black Mirror is one of the most interesting TV shows in recent memory.

It looks at the world through an alternative and often very disturbing light, especially with regards to the advancement of technology.

Each episode examines a world where a particular technological advancement (one that is never too far-fetched, we should add), will ultimately ruin society…

Occasionally, there are glimpses of happiness, but mostly it’s about how technology will ultimately lead to our demise.

So it’s only right that Black Mirror is going to be involved in Netflix’s brand new idea, where the individual viewer will ultimately decide how the episode ends.

It seems as if Black Mirror fans will get to choose their own ending in one episode of the upcoming season of Black Mirror – due for release in December – which is exactly as terrifying and cool as it sounds.

According to Bloomberg, the streaming service is currently developing a slate of specials that will let viewers choose the next storyline in a TV episode or movie and Black Mirror will be one of the first.

The new season of Black Mirror is set to be released in December 2019, so you don’t have too long to wait.

For now, we’ll just enjoy watching television that doesn’t chill us to the core…
