Black Mirror Rewatch Announcement and Schedule
The interest thread got a fair amount of... interest, so I'll be moving forward with this rewatch.
Black Mirror is available to watch on Netflix, this link should take you to it.
A thread will be posted every 3 days; this should be enough time for people to watch the episodes, and hopefully won't spam ~tv too much. The first thread will be posted on Friday, and the full schedule is below, let me know if there's anything wrong.

An additional idea I had was for us to rate the episodes. In each thread, I'll post a comment where you can reply with a number from 1-5. I'll then average these numbers to get a collective rating. At the end, we can have a list of our collective favourite and least favourite, episodes.
I'm excited to discuss these episodes, see you on Friday!
That's a pretty rapid pace for the rewatch schedule. I tend to have to take more than a few days between some of the episodes to recover because they absolutely wreck me emotionally. ;) I will try to keep up and join in when I can though. Thanks for doing this.
If anyone does fall behind or miss the start, they should still be able to have some active discussion even in older threads, as most people sort by activity :)
Thank you so much now I have an excuse to watch the series. I've always heard good things but am excited about this.
