This Is What 'Black Mirror' Has in Common With 'Succession'

Few shows can transpire the unique sense of unease as effortlessly as Black Mirror does. What makes the show particularly unsettling is that though Black Mirror depicts fictional events set in a techno-centric dystopian future, viewers can sense that the building blocks for the dismal future have already begun piling up. While technology is a massive part of every Black Mirror episode, it serves primarily as magnifying glass to glance deeper into human nature and identity. And more often than not, what's revealed through the lens is deeply disturbing.
