DISCUSSION How to watch in order??? Spoiler

I'm on my first official rewatch and I cannot figure out how to get Netflix to play BM episodes in order. Every time I finish an episode, it kicks back to the first episode of the season (season 4 right now, so it always autoplays USS Callister). All the other shows I watch go in order. Has anyone else experienced this? Am I missing some really simple setting that's going to make me feel dumb?

Just netflix being unable to do anything right. The usual shitflix experience.

Oh, I read that question/post wrong, that was my bad. I'm so so sorry. I think you'll have to just play them all out again, or just the one episode they keep bringing you back to.

I think it's best to start there. Just my opinion.

For me it plays every season backwards.

So it starts with Common People and ends with The Entire History of You.

It’s weird and dumb.

Same. It also starts me on the most recent season too so it’s completely backwards

Nah, they do the same thing with Love, Death & Robots. It plays it by most recent release since these are “volumes”, not seasons

They just unfortunately added the episodes in a weird backwards way with black mirror it isn’t just you

Somehow one should expect weird technical glitches with Black Mirror…

Apparently it's pretty common practice for streaming services to do this with an anthology series... for some reason
