Previous seasons of the show have taken a bleak stance on how humans use new technologies. The new season takes a more ambivalent approach, showing both threats and opportunities.

Black Mirror season 7 is out now on Netflix. Charlie Brooker, the show's creator, says he's "worrying in what I hope is an entertaining way" in an interview with NPR's A Martínez.

These are the first new Black Mirror episodes since before the pandemic. The show continues to be among the best anthology TV series ever made.
