Fun fact, I did a version of this video six years ago when there were only 3 seasons of the Black Mirror and it's also my first video on the channel! It's safe to say the most powerful moments have changed since then! What are your most powerful moments?

The twist ending in "Shut Up and Dance" still chills me to my very core. Kenny is set up as a decent person, but when the reveal happens, it's so shocking!

Davis’ face at the end of Loch Henry…I’ve never seen eyes so sad. NEVER!!! Give him awards for just sitting there with tears welling up.

Ill never be able to get over the fact that the entire test duration in playtest only lasted 0.04 seconds, not even half a second of time elapsed and he experienced all that no wonder his brain was fried. Also the fact that in the very near future a video game company could 100% accomplish this on some level where theres a VR game that plays off your biggest fears, its really not out of the realm of possibility.

In Beyond the Sea, I'd have opened the airlocks and yeet both of us out. Screw the mission and humanity. I'm not working with the guy that killed my family.

The ending of Shut Up and Dance always gets me. Would love more episodes like it. Very grim but very much in our world as it is now.

I can understand why the ending of Nosedive didn’t make the list, but I personally found it very powerful. These two people, lives ruined, in jail cells and cast out from society show more joy and freedom from roasting each other than any of the fake people showed doing anything.

Beyond the sea... was probably .. the coldest shit ever seen... 💯 hands down ... next level... blew my mind ... the way he kicks the chair out at the end..... absolute savage 😮😮

shut up and dance, beyond the sea, white Christmas, and 15 million merits are my favorite episodes for twists. such a good show man

Be Right Back is so underrated. It was my favorite episode. I could feel the pain and loss in that scream. And the fact that she kept him in the attic was heartbreaking, especially knowing that her daughter had a connection with him.

San Junipero was such a rollercoaster of emotions, I can't watch it without crying. Its constant revelations of sadness and joy was a punch to the brain.

the entire history of u still is my favorite Black Mirror episode ever, seeing his detective work turn out to be true while utilizing that grain. and the melancholic sadness he experiences at the end was so gut wrenching!!

Davis reading the "For your film" note is a sweet & sentimental moment, illustrating the power of maternal love. A mother -- even a murderous sex-maniac mother -- always cares for her son, never losing her desire to help him in every way possible.

the “shut up and dance” ending never fails to make me feel the same emotions i felt the first time watching it

These were definitely very powerful moments, but I would add one of my favorites from episode "Crocodile", when Shazia sees the true memories of Mia and wants to leave very quickly... and after that Mia follows her to her car, but the car does not start...

I loved how you never used background music. Your voice is very soothing and allows us to focus more unlike other channels

Totally agree with you about Shut Up and Dance. I think Crocodile with Andrea Riseborough packs quite a power last few scenes as well.

I interpreted the kicking the chair moment very differently. I read it as more like "take a seat with me" as in llike "join me now" becaause Cliff is now in the same spot as him, his family butchered.

What surprises me is I was unaware of "Black Mirror" since its birth in 2011 until my daughter suggested a look recently (2023). I can only describe it as a future technology laden series in the vein of "The Twilight Zone" or "The Outer Limits" (among other great series in the history of alternate TV shows) and such a gem to find with a whole SIX SEASONS worth to watch at my leisure. Like they made this show for me to find over 10 years later! Or is it perhaps part of a "Black Mirror" plot involving me? Hmmmm ...

Beyond the sea had hands down the most disturbing ending I've ever watched. One of the absolute greatest black mirror episodes, if not the best. And it seems to be very underrated on Imdb. Someone needs to make Brooker not stop making episodes.

Loved your video! My personal #1 best moment in Black Mirror is the Teddy Bear at the end of Metalhead. There is so much grit and fierce fighting in this episode, but the way the lady signs off that she's sorry she didn't complete the mission and then the realization that getting a Teddy for a child was what it was all about. So damn beautiful!

what i wouldn't give to watch black mirror again like it was the first time, i can't get enough

white christmas was superb! such intelligent scriptwriting which i completely missed this season to be honest. I also like the ending of hang the DJ.

This channel is the best. We will always support him.

I absolutely loved Loch Henry and Beyond the Sea. My 2 favorites other than the pedophile ending of Shut Up and Dance. That was fucking gut wrenching to watch and realize as it happened…mostly because they picked the perfect actor for the part. He was genuinely believable as a “nice boy”…. And that’s what makes him so fucking terrifying. He seems so kind and innocent.

The ending of playtest was incredible, his scream when he was with his mom in the end was emotional

I liked this season as a whole. I felt Mazey Day fell flat at the end. The beginning and story was good, but the "twist" was meh. The rest, I liked from start to finish.

I think a great moment was in Men of Fire where the staff show the soldier all that he had done with out the monster filter and him killing innocent people. His realization was heart breaking to watch.

I’m so glad you mentioned Be Right Back. It’s one of the most emotional episodes for me. Especially lately I lost my brother whom I was very close with and I’m in possession of his phone and laptop. As a BM fan of course my thoughts went to Be Right Back and if I had the option to bring back some form of him like she does with Ash is unbelievably tempting. But of course it’s never truly the real person you lost.

Beyond the sea is DEFINITELY N1 for me 🤯🤯🤯 I still can’t get over what he did

This list is brilliant as is this channel!!!

The "take a seat" moment will always be tarnished by how stupid it was that just using the person's tag let them access the replica. Honestly, nobody would develop that level of technology and use that kind of extremely basic security to protect it. I knew from the start of the show that would get exploited, who would exploit it based on the spacewalk at the start, and had a good idea of what they'd do after exploiting it. I was hoping through the entire episode that I'd be wrong and this was all a misdirection, but my stomach sank when it turned out I was right. They should have either had zero security at all on this system or high security. Either it is operating in a trusted environment where no security is needed or high security is needed due to the tech being operated. That idiotic tag system was almost the same as no security and it just brought more into focus exactly where this episode was going. I think if they'd chosen high security, the writers would have found a much more creative ending to this episode rather than the predictable one they went for. Personally, I'd have enjoyed the bold choice of the two working together to make the wife happy and sharing the family. That is a disturbing yet probably realistic direction this sort of technology would lead to for certain types of people.

after season 3 was aired, all of the students in my school had tapes on their laptop camera

The bird mask freaks the hell out of me on that old British woman I can’t get that image out of my head of her drilling those victims

metalhead ending with the Teddy Bear I thought was powerful (and really sad)

shut up and dance really is the best episode of the show and will always be i think, everything about it is close to perfection if not perfect

I would argue the ending in Nosedive as top 5 powerful since the protagonist goes to great lengths to impress people that dont care about her only to lose everything- it's very similar to how the youth of society is constantly publishing their lives without any consequence of how it may affect them negatively.

i just finished beyond the sea. jesus christ… that is one of the craziest episodes ever. i predicted he would murder the family about halfway through the episode, but it didn’t make the way the show writers went about it any less amazing. i also expected david to leave cliff outside.

Wow, never knew Aaron Paul was in Black Mirror, for some reason absolutely missed the Beyond the sea epsiode as well lol

They’re saying it’s Kids Kenny! KIDS!!😂

beyond the sea was also great ❤i knew it was gonna be after seeing Josh Hartnett was gonna be in it 🥰

Older i get the more i get in dramacomedy. Dark humor and or dark twists shows

I can think of a different ending to Beyond the Sea where he painted the house walls and made a scene that looked like he murdered the other guys family. Then kicked the chair and told him to have a seat as he now understands how much he lost

The best episode is Black Museum. What happened to the well meaning doctor was a surprise as well as the fact that the woman's being was still trapped inside of the child's toy. Next is White Christmas, the guy's psycho killer date and when the husband finally got to see the child wasn't his were big surprises. Third is Crocodile, when the investigators discover the pet hamster. And I liked Mazey Day, did NOT expect that werewolf angle, it was fun! I wasn't moved by any of your choices except for Loch Henry. I found Shut Up and Dance boring, I didn't care what was on the video, wasn't really surprised at the ending. Also, I hate that the series felt the need to add the "goody goody" episode San Junipero. It was a nice story, but it felt like the creators were saying, "We have some happy episodes too!" Unnecessary.

Beyond the Sea was hands down grotesque, gut punching, and downright depressing. No true resolution or anything good. I felt hopeless in the end 😢

The story of entire history of you is the true definition of Oedipus complex. The desire to find the truth till everything spirals down to your demise.

Question: was it stated categorically in The Entire History Of You that Liam's child wasn't actually his? To me, it was left ambiguous - and Charlie B himself has stated his intention was that he *was* the father...

honestly, the ending of beyond the sea was disappointing for me. It just doesn't seem realistic to me that david would do that; it's TOO extreme and feels like the writers just thought of the most dark ending they could make without it making sense. He was in love with Lana, why would he do that? Jealousy? I don't think he would - and I think it made his character too detestable, prior to this he wasn't written to be a psycopath like that imo. Personally if I were to rewrite the ending you would, following an intense argument between the two on the space station, see cliff's body waking up and moving around back on earth and at first you wouldn't be 100 percent sure who was inside it, but then you would realise it was cliff (seemingly) as he apologizes to lana for being so cold and the two make love. As this happens the scene is intercut with Cliff in space, locked out of the airlock, banging on the window and screaming in desperation - you realise the one inside Cliff's body isn't him but David impersonating him, fully taking over his life. And the real Cliff dies in space with nobody ever knowing. Great video though!

Mine r shut up and dance white bear deep blue sea and 15 million merrits these episodes were so shocking to me regarding their twists but overall i liked all the episodes except the very first one

6:55 Why couldn't the replaces go into outer space instead?

Im suprised "mom, mom, mom, mom..." didnt make the list.

How is white Christmas and white bear not on here

What’s missing in 3 out of 5 of this season’s episodes is the use “futuristic” technology. I’m very disappointed.

I’m a little confused why no one questions whether the video of Kenny is real, wouldn’t it be easy especially for hackers to fake something like that?

Just saying. Shut up and dance. Is a grand slam.

Unpopular opinion. Be right back was just okay. Not bad but definitely not one of the best.

This list is great but White Bear definitely needs to be on here, it’s more powerful than Loch Henry imo.

Monkeys paw.

Life as a game?

Why didn’t Cliff go to the relevant authorities after finding his family slaughtered?

Black Mirror hasn't been like the first few season

Black Mirror - White Christmas was Great

Forgetting the TOP TEIR ending of Mazey Day lol 😂😂

I'll never forgive you for ranking Loch Henry 😿

I only watched the 1st episode. Sorry to say her over all's at the end only signifies for her all the things she had to go through are over. But anyone who knew about hearing what someone else thought b4 the me 2 movement is subject to a nobody coming onto your mind for life. Sorry all you millions but a rapper once told y'all " it's ain't my fault" . Remember to can't go over , under or around ypu must go through and not any way someone else tells you like a therapist or psychiatrist you have to go through your own way. Good luck I almost lost my life but don't be scared of a nobody cause a nobody can't hurt you cause a nobody has no body.

Aaron Paul is crying? Really?

I hated shut up and dance for its ending. The ending was so predictable, not the exact reason of course, that the wife and I just did not like it. My response was the same as the mother but for a different reason. I was disgusted that kids was the choice the writer went with to explain why Kenny was so driven by the bullies to comply. I expected something based on him being on the spectrum and our unfair treatment of those born with defects they have no control over. That online bullying of those unable to handle the situation and how far down a rabbit hole it could go. Imagine the ending where Kenny just killed a man due to online bullying over a video that a normal person would not care about. Nope. Instead it was just a pedo ending.
