List of Black Mirror episodes
Black Mirror is a British television series created by Charlie Brooker. The series is produced by Zeppotron for Endemol. Regarding the programme's content and structure, Brooker noted, "each episode has a different cast, a different setting, even a different reality. But they're all about the way we live now – and the way we might be living in 10 minutes' time if we're clumsy."[1]
In September 2015, Netflix commissioned a third series of 12 episodes,[2] which was later divided into two series of six episodes.[3] The third series was released on Netflix worldwide on 21 October 2016.[4] As of 21 October 2016, 13 episodes of Black Mirror have been released, including one special, concluding the third series.
