If you also avoid movies and books of the same ilk for the same reasons, yeah, I can see that.

To me, they're just great SF stories (well, the first three(?) seasons before Netflix bought them and Americanized them): some poignant, some horror-ish, some uplifting.

I found the "unforeseen consequences" of technology fascinating, but that's just me.

I get 'too close to reality' vibes whenever i hear or read something about Black Mirror. Can't really explain it clearly. Maybe i should just try it. It's not high on my list though :) I do love the Love, Death and Robots series though.

No, I get the "too close to reality" vibes. I actually like that.

LD&R ROCKED! At least the first season; I still watch it regularly (well, I did before Netflix EOLed my TV). Season 2 was forgettable. Season 3 kinda made up for Season 2.
