Black Mirror season 6. I've seen the first 3 episodes ("Joan Is Awful", "Loch Henry", "Beyond the Sea"), but not yet 4 and 5 ("Mazey Day" and "Demon 79"). As always, it's a mixed bag. So far, the standout is "Beyond the Sea". "Loch Henry" doesn't really work but has some truly great moments. "Joan Is Awful" is kind of a head-scratcher, and not in a good way, although it was nice to see Rich Fulcher and Michael Cera in small roles.
SPOILER



I did like Joan is Awful quite a lot. My favorite part of it is that they solved the "problem" of the life-shredding "Netflix" show by...unsubscribing from Netflix.
Joan is Awful was great, Loch Henry was OK, Beyond the Sea I liked until I realized it was going to be a violent ending. I was hoping they would explore the idea of identity more. Have not yet seen 4 and 5 but will soon.

Kind of a misnomer, the title. Couldn't have been that great a hoax, no one I know nor myself has ever heard of them.

As for what I'm watching, the newest season of Party Down (Hulu) is pretty good. Hits all those original notes with a little more story. Fun stuff.

Silo on Apple TV seems like dumb fun with a slight sci-fi edge that ticks the conspiracy boxes alright.
