Let's put the hate in perspective

I just don't get it. I've loved Black Mirror since the start, and whilst admittedly there are a few dud episodes throughout each season, and that is of course the repercussions of an anthology series, this season has felt to me like a marked improvement.
Each episode feels like a mini movie, with a higher budget and more fleshed out themes. It's not perfect by any means, but at it's best it is solid, gripping and thought provoking, and that's more than can be said for a lot of stuff outside of netflix/amc. -

Put the few negative posts on imdb into perspective and realize that this third season has been received incredibly well by both critics and fans alike with a 93%/96% approval rating on RT. Netflix has already ordered a fourth season.

Pretty much came here to say this. The only reason I started the show at all was because of all the praise I'm hearing for the 3rd season, but I started from the beginning and the first episode of the 1st season was not particularly good.
It was extremely heavy handed and illogical in the end and left me rather disappointed. It was well made and acted but the story was not really that good. -

I agree. Can't comprehend the hate. Netflix is not to blame here, and people are forgetting that Charlie Brooker is still writing the 3rd season. This season feels a lot more whole for me. I found 15 million merits and the waldo moment to be unwatchable, but this season has been exceptional for all episodes, so that in my book is a vast improvement.
