What BollyAI Thinks

Series 7 landed with an 89% Rotten Tomatoes score - the best Netflix-era reception the show has received since its arrival on the platform. Critics recognised a season firing on all its premises simultaneously, with Brooker sharpening his satirical lens on current anxieties around AI, digital identity, and platform capitalism. Six episodes of consistent quality is a higher bar than the show has consistently cleared in its streaming era, and Series 7 met it. The season includes a sequel to the show's most popular episode, handled with the confidence of a creative team that knows exactly when to revisit and when to leave well alone.
