Must watch! Masterpiece alert! Black Mirror's 3rd Edition's NOSEDIVE


Do yourself a favor and watch this NOW! 
Well, let me give you a little bit of context here: If you are into fiction series (many are more drawn to them than to actual movies and the number of brutally good, well-made, extremely compelling series may overwhelm even the most ardent TV lover with lots of free time on their hands!) you may have heard of the British miniseries "Black Mirror". If not, you should have: it is a MONUMENTALLY good three-season production, mostly revolving around the dehumanization of today's society as a by-product of modern technology, mass media, the Internet, social networks... It paints a very bleak picture, for sure, so do not turn to it expecting to have a popcorn filled Sunday afternoon easy-watch, because it will very likely let you down in that regard.
If you are, however, not that impressionable or over-sensitive and just want to have an incredibly smart portrayal of the problems previously mentioned and are not afraid of watching a series which will actually make you think, I cannot recommend this series enough.
As we have recently tackled the topic media and, more specifically, social media, leading to very interesting discussions about their effect on humans in class, there is no way you should miss this AWESOME episode which kickstarts the 3rd season of the series (which in turn, comes across as bleaker, scarier than ever). I don't want to spoil anything here, but it shows the extents to which people's obsession for being accepted in the social networks can reach. But please, judge for yourselves.
Seriously, not unlike the really good episodes of the series (most of them, actually), it is a masterpiece of modern art, in my view.
