He should stop comedy once he realizes what is happening.

Do people remember the sets afterwards? It doesn't seem like they do. He told a joke about his nephew, then he vanishes, it seems like people in the audience didn't know about the nephew even related to the set?
Yeah. Nobody would ever be able to reference anything

How is that at all the same?! Podcast vs a goblin. What!?

Anyways, I watched this one too. The first ending was pretty predictable. I knew almost right away that Adam Scott's actions would end up causing the crash. I didn't see the 2nd twist coming and it wasn't needed either. Really it ended up being the same ending as the first. Everyone seems to die (or not exist), but the main character is killed (or does not exist) and everyone else lives.

I did like the shorter run time of the 2nd episode.
Same outcome. Even though it was different, it was still very nostalgic. That being said, I watched the original 20 min ago

103 Replay
This was the weakest episode I thought. I liked what they were doing with destiny and how this cop would always find them, but things fell apart when she showed up to her brother's. He bought into the magically camcorder within seconds! They did this to keep the story flowing, but they could have at least questioned it.
Him: Prove it
Her: Turns on TV. Sees what is on. Goes back in time, tells him what is going to be on TV before she turns it on

Also,them taking back alleys and the tunnel to get to college. That was laughably dumb. Especially when the tunnel literally led to the middle of campus. I assume they were going for an underground railroad theme?

Episode 4. That looks like principal tower, but the other buildings don't look familiar

'The Twilight Zone' Renewed for Season 2 at CBS All Access
I'm really shocked. All four episodes have been mediocre at best for me.

Yeah, it's all been pretty bad so far. I liked the Traveler episode and the plane one, but the rest were just not great at all.

I think I will stop watching unless you come on here and tell me it was amazing or at least as good as the average Black Mirror episode.

Finale was last night. It did some really cool 4th wall breaking, but still ended up being pretty meh.

I enjoyed most of the episodes, but I don't think I can recommend them. They were short and mindless with good actors, so there's that I suppose.
