The new BlackMirror episodes are interesting in different ways, but the totality of them is enough to make a viewer wonder if Charlie Brooker is growing tired of the show and/or his partnership with Netflix.
So perhaps this latest season is just Brooker’s attempt to move away from what he’s done too much of in the past, and to neutralize jokes like Daniel M. Lavery’s old suggestion that everyMyha’la Herrold and Samuel Blenkin inIf that’s the case, it’s admirable that Brooker isn’t simply resting on his laurels and trying to stretch the definition of whatcan be.
In particular, pacing and episode length remain big problems. Most of the Channel 4 episodes ran between 40 and 50 minutes, which felt about right to establish the rules of each twist on reality, tell a story about how tech harms the lives of these particular characters, and get out without overstaying your welcome. At Netflix, the new normal became 60 minutes, and often a lot more, to the point where it almost felt shocking when an episode like “Metalhead” came in at only 41.
