"San Junipero ," like many Black Mirror episodes, deals with some tragic themes but the relationship between Kelly and Yorkie is heartwarming and the ending is uncharacteristically uplifting. The aesthetics of this episode are sublime, the lead characters are endearing and the performances are masterful. What truly elevates this season though is "San Junipero" which is arguably one of the best Black Mirror episodes. While episodes like "Playtest" and "Men Against Fire" aren't quite on the same level as the others, they're still strong stories that explore the darker side of technology. Audiences are treated to yet another shocking twist in "Shut Up And Dance" and "Nosedive" perfectly explores the relatable fear of public rejection and humiliation. Even though some of the stories were larger in scale, season 3 didn't forget the show's routes. With the show's move to Netflix came a bigger budget and the opportunity to explore grander stories.
