My ranking of Black MIrror Series 7's episodes (after three go-rounds of the season):
1) Plaything
2) Common People
3) USS Callister Into Infinity
4) Bete Noire
5) Eulogy
6) Hotel Reverie
(note: the positions of "Plaything" and "Eulogy" are definitely subjective on my part, due to how well those episodes may or may not have resonated with me.)

Since it's a ranking of your personal preferences, wouldn't that apply to all items on the list?

Currently watching Kids in the Hall on Amazon. Something really threw me for a loop: they kept censoring the use of the F-slur, even when it's used in a reclaimed manner by the extremely gay Scott McKinney, and even excised the "Running F-----t" skit entirely. And yet, they keep a sketch about a racist cabbie repeatedly using the N-word uncut.

One of the actors from Extraordinary Attorney Woo is in I Am Not a Robot. It was quite the surprise.

I've been re-watching The West Wing, which appears to be set in an alternate timeline where the US government is functional and its politicians care about what the Constitution actually says. One of my favourite scenes.
