Atlanta: Three Slaps (2022)
Incorporates a true story into the theme
It's a story of a boy who seems to think he's getting a rough shake of a home life, only to be removed by CFS and quickly realize the grass isn't always greener.
For the people calling it "racially charged nonsense", it actually happened - it's based on a true story of the Hart family. "These white people, they gonna kill you" sounds like the mom is being dramatic until it comes to fruition.
There are things I don't understand about the episode. The opening scene is barely, if not loosely, related to the rest of the episode. I also don't quite follow the connection between the couple feeding the kids "healthy" versions of foods if their intention was to k*ll them. And finally, while I get the comedic side of it, who truly doesn't own a wash cloth?
Black Mirror: The Entire History of You (2011)
Chilling + Ahead of Its Time
For whatever reason, this episode is the most memorable to me of the Black Mirror series. I am not saying it's the best written or acted, but it epitomizes Black Mirror and the dark side of technology. Great pace and tone setter for the series.
