Black Mirror: Joan Is Awful (2023)
Definitely not Black Mirror, but fun nonetheless.
Most of what I'm about to say applies to most of the series but although it's definitely not Black Mirror, it's fun and it tries new things. The declining quality of Seasons 4 and 5 were obviously just Charlie getting tired of trying to write the next White Christmas, or the new Shut Up and Dance, but he's already covered most of his bases. He's written more dark episodes about this technology and that technology, but there's only so many times you can write about new technologies with new dark twists. Nobody saw a comedy coming for Black Mirror, it's not what most people came for and I can respect if people don't like it, but he clearly wanted to try something new, and even if some of the comedy fell flat on its face, this episode was overall fun in my opinion.
