20 Netflix Original Series You Must Binge-Watch In 2019

5. Black Mirror

Black Mirror Bandersnatch Colin

Through four seasons - two of them on Netflix - a Christmas Special and, now, a choose-your-own-adventure film, Charlie Brooker's Black Mirror has left viewers both delighted and despairing with his terrifying technological tales.

Bandersnatch arrived at the end of 2018 and, while admirably ambitious, didn't fully scratch the itch for more Black Mirror. Thankfully, a proper fifth season is on the way to Netflix in 2019, although not much is known about it just yet.

We do know, oddly, that Miley Cyrus is going to star in an episode, while Brooker himself has promised some more optimistic stories, rather than an over-reliance on the fatalism that has come to define the show thus far. In the immortal words of Colin Ritman: "Fair enough."
