I agree in the sense that Black Mirror seems almost required to be extra pessimistic when... there's a better and far more complex story available with a different approach or ending.

Granted I'm also WAY burnt out on pessimistic Si-Fi, it's the default now, and it's predicable and far too easy.

That's not to say it can't be mostly dark, but for many movies and shows, that's most of the meat...

Gosh yeah. Even watching Black Mirror this season is difficult because I'm so tired of dystopian stuff.

Can you recommend any recent non-dystopian scifi?

Honestly I was just thinking of watching old Star Trek DS9

Not a bad plan :)

The Orville is really good if you haven't seen it yet
