10 Most Binged Horror TV Shows Of All Time
6. Black Mirror
Are you ready for a little bit of dystopia?
Black Mirror is a show that acts as a testament to word of mouth. The sci-fi anthology series started life on Channel 4 and became an underground hit. It didn't have massive exposure, but it got people talking. After budget concerns following the second season and a Christmas special, the show shipped to Netflix, where it found an even more extensive audience and gathered tonnes of attention.
The series is infamous for holding a mirror up to the technologically-obsessed tendencies of the modern world and explores an entirely new concept in every episode. This, naturally, makes it easy to blast through, as your attention span will never wain, with fresh ideas and storylines coming at you like machine gun fire.
Now, it's safe to say that the series has lost a lot of its charm in the past few seasons. What once felt like an intimate and gritty experience is now an overly Americanised, self-righteous sci-fi romp. But, no matter how you feel about the quality of the latest ventures, it still gets massive viewer counts, proving that perseverance can turn a niche series into a megahit.
