TODAY, on BLACK MIRROR EPISODES in Real LIFE
I kid you not, there’s this BM episode where they train on indoor bikes and sleep in pods and have to watch the ad on the screen lest it screeches at them

Ah shit thanks
Was an episode of Max Headroom where it was illegal to own an off-switch for your television.
40 years earlier, and still ahead of its time.
It was referenced in every episode, but one episode was about the people who had one.
Every dystopic shit that eventually happens in real life has been featured in a BM episode.
I am starting to suspect that either the authors of BM know something we don’t, or that some people are treating BM as some kind of an instruction manual.
We’re a few years away from the first phase of “Be Right Back.”
Tech CEOs watched that series for inspiration for new products. They read 1984 for the same reason.
