proximoceptionNext two Black Mirrors excellent, in highly different ways.
Very affecting for me, not just as a member of the exact choir each preaches to (and who sometimes forgets the church has anyone else in it), but for reminding me crazy heavily of my Vancouver and S. Carolina periods, respectively. Whether 3.4 even fits the show's title is questionable, but it does help put the other ones in perspective. At least one of the Choose Your Own Adventure paths through the next fifty years ... might not be like the others. As for 3.5, it's derivative in an inspired and pointed way: the military is 1984 is the military. "Killbot factory" indeed. Which of course it is, but our noses need to be rubbed in just what that entails much more often than they are.
