Odds are you probably know someone obsessed with the Netflix show "Black Mirror". The show portrays alternate versions of our world, featuring advanced technology and reflecting horrifying realities about how we relate to our own technology currently.

It's an anthology, with each episode centering around different characters and settings, so you can watch it in any order you like. However most people advise to skip the first episode, as it can turn new viewers off and is not representative of what the other episodes are like.

3. "The Waldo Moment"

In "The Waldo Moment", a cartoon bear named Waldo, who interviews politicians on a late night comedy show, runs in a political race himself.
