Black Mirror Season 1 (2011)

An unimaginable request for a prime minister. Energy and points obtained by people on bicycles. The possibility to review and analyze the memories of the day.

The season that started the Black Mirror mania. With only 3 episodes, all very British, the first season showed the world what Charlie Brooker's mind can do when he wants to antagonize technological evolution in any way he wants. Well thought out, well acted, very diverse in themes and unexpected in development.

Doctor Who - Season 11 (2018)

Aventurile celui de-al 13-lea doctor dupa prima regenerare in trup de femeie.

Primul sezon experiment al iubitului serial, cu o femeie in rolul Doctorului si fara imaginatia lui Stephen Moffat. Rezultatul e un Doctor Who mediocru, concentrat pe corectitudine politica, eroi istorici reali si dusmani prea evidenti. Situatia e rareori gri, raul e usor de dibuit si eroii sunt imaculati, facand sezonul 11 unul dintre cele mai plictisitoare pana acum. Jodie Whittaker e simpatica de ajuns dar are nevoie de scenarii mai puternice.

Productie:  BBC   
Creator:  Sydney Newman  
Cu: Jodie Whittaker, Bradley Walsh, Tosin Cole, Mandip Gill, Samuel Oatley, Sharon D. Clarke

Rating: 7/10
