15 Best Sci-Fi TV Shows Of The 2010s
5. Black Mirror
In what was very much considered this generation's answer to The Twilight Zone - y'know, before that was recently revived - Black Mirror has been making us all question our own reality since 2011.
The show went on a bit of an interesting journey over the past 10 years because it started the decade as a well-received-but-relatively-small-scale Channel 4 series and ended it a larger-than-life Netflix show with a massive following. It's reputation precedes it, and if you ever sit down to watch an episode, you'll see why.
An anthology series that consists of multiple standalone episodes, it uses each of those episodes to tell a story that showcases humanity's ever-growing reliance on technology. Whether it's a gritty thriller designed to keep us on the edges of our seats like 'Metalhead', or the uplifting Emmy-Award winning drama 'San Junipero, Black Mirror is incredibly clever and highly innovative in its writing and its experimental nature forces us to think about the consequences of these potentially deadly new technologies.
