The BLACK MIRROR Timeline Explained

Ойын-сауық

I review, breakdown and explain Black Mirror Netflix. I discuss Season 6 and give the full timeline of episodes from the first up until the most recent. I go all the way back to 1969 with Beyond The Sea and take it into the future finishing in the year 2100 with Metalhead. I react to all of the easter eggs that pave the way for the actual order of episodes based on time and give my theories and predictions on the time period that they were set in.

    Question - do you think Metalhead is at the end of the timeline? Or do you think the dogs were eventually defeated somewhere in the middle of the timeline and civilisation rebuilt and started adopting new technology again? Let me know, i'm intrigued to hear thoughts on that matter! 👀

    In "demon 79", when Nida sees Michael Smarts future as a politician, you can clearly see that his actions led to the creation of the dogs. In the future, Michael Smart implements surveilance systems, creates viruses and terrorizes people. On the news in the episode "Loch Henry" you can see that "Michael Smart unveils robo dogs to the police". So basically, metalhead IS the creation of Michael Smart.

    I am sorry to say that but author complitely missed the ENOURMOUS point that episode "Demon 79" makes. When Nida looks at Michael Smarts future, she sees that he causes mass surveilance, creation of the viruses and sophisticated technologies that lead to racial eugenics in "Men against Fire" and creation of robodogs of "Metalhead". (On the TV in "Loch Henry" you can see that Michael smart unveils robodogs to the police. Basically, he is the person that leads to creation of horrific Black mirror distopy.

    I hope you guys can excuse my english. I strongly believe that 15 Million Merits, alongside Men Against Fire, are simulations. There is only one episode that actually let us know "hey, you just watched a simulation" and that is Hang the DJ. However, that doesn't mean that they had to explicilly tell us other episodes were simulations too. I also believe that all the simulations were done after the "grain" technology was developed, and simulations are made with digital copies of the conciusness from real people.

    I think it’s more likely that they are existing in different universes rather than on a timeline in one universe. Some universes seem to have better technology sooner if for example were thinking that “Beyond The Sea” was set in 1969. They wouldn’t have the technology to use a consciousness into a clone body from space and then 10 years later have “demon 79” without any of the same type of technology. I think they are alternate universes

    That could be, but its important to note that in Beyond The Sea the space travel and clone technology was perhaps not privately funded, but rather funded by the government. The government would probably want to keep super-advanced tech away from going public for as long as possible, in order to get big stocks, shares and control in new tech companies once the gov's ahead-of their-time technologies and synthetic implants (like the grain in s.1 ep.3, or the eye implants in Nosedive) is allowed to be expanded and made commercially available. This explains why there is a "break" in publicly available tech between what we see in Beyond The Sea and up to the 2010's

    For the White Bear episode at 2:18, we were shown the calendar for October month. Using the information that the 1st of October was Tuesday, we can use Zeller's Congruence to calculate the possible years. I calculated using python and got 29 such years from 1901 to 2097. The relevant years from those are .....1996, 2002, 2013, 2019, 2024,..... So according to the Blackberry release, it must be the year *2013* which is the closest after 2007.

    YES ! Also the politician having his symbol be the demon talisman and the demon wanting him alive points to the White Bear and Metalhead tech being demonic. I think Demon 79 was trying to tell us that we should look at the timeline in a completely different way, with most of what comes after being either done by demons or politicians using demonic tech (which would imply a cult existing in the higher ranks of society).

    I think there are multiple timelines at play here, where events from certain episodes effect what happens going forward. Basically if Demon 79 goes 1 way or the other reality splits in two. And possibly further if the ruin is used again. Maybe the rune was used causing the Metalhead apocalypse-as Gaap stated it presents differently. So anytime we are in an apocalyptic scenario it could mean a rune was involved.

    I think Man against fire is before Crocodile. This makes sense when you realize tech is often first used in the military. Crocodile is before the Entire History of You. It later introduced the grain. Easier rewatch. Then Arkangel, basically the same but then grain but for children. Then San Junipero, the first addition of cookies (Correct me if I am wrong). In USS Calister and White Christmas (And Black Museum) there are way more advanced types of cookies. So White Christmas came. Everyone had the insane features. Black Museum is around 10 years after White Christmas. When people found out that that technology isn’t that good for humanity. Maybe there are 2 timelines. A sci-fi one and a normal one. 1: Beyond the Sea, History of you, White Christmas, Crocodile, 2: The National Anthem, Shut up and Dance, Loch Henry, I just don’t understand where 15 Million Merits would go. Because it’s so different. Maybe its actually set inside of a supercomputer like in Joan is Awful?

I assumed there had to be a reason they’re trapped inside, not outside, something out there stopping people from any exploitation of resources beyond the walls of their tower, and no contact with others, just… getting weirder and more whacked out over time

    There’s actually a theory that there are two timelines happening in the black mirror universe, the human world ei (the entire history of you, crocodile, loch henry, shut up and dance) and the cookie world(15 million merits, nose dive, hang the dj, joan is awful) and the crossovers (white bear, white Christmas, uss calister) I would love to work on a project with you explaining what’s happening in both, for example the development of cookies and cookies gaining rights coincide with hated in the nation and a few others. There’s another piece of tech that has been expanded upon with this 6 season and that’s replicas (beyond the sea, be right back). You can also break the timelines down by the most apparent technology 1 would be current tech (mazey daze, shut up and dance, the national anthem, smithereens) grain development(arch angel, man on fire, uss calister, white Christmas, black museum) cookies (nose dive, Joan is dead, white bear, 15 million merits, hang the dj etc) replicas (beyond the sea, be right back) and cross overs which references tech and the human experience.

    I always assumed that 15 Million Merits was way in the future due to us never witnessing the outside world and the story is exclusively set in an artificial environment. Like the point about the reality show hype I see as being a product of the cyclical nature of media. Its nostalgic, people got bored of the format then came back stronger than ever for a new audience.

In the other timeline, no one finds the rune and Michael Smart (politician in the episode) creates robodogs, and other technology that leads to mass surveilance, war on immigrants as in the episode "men against fire" and the absolute horror of "Metalhead".

Just my thoughts. Very well done

    I disagree with San Junipero being in 2019, as it doesnt make sense with the characters. Kelly is 73 in San Junipero, and going by the 2019 theory that means she was born in the 40s. San Junipero is built exactly for the elderly to be reimmersed in their youth, their era. If Kelly was born in the 40s, it wouldnt make sense for the 80s to be her era as she wouldve been 40+. Yorkie even said to Kelly when she was in the 2000s that "this isnt your era" so its safe to assume that San Junipero is set in the future where people born in the 70s/80s/90s are now elderly

And I had no issue with the tech in ep 2 being old video cameras or the current true crime phenomenon. I just kind of wish the werewolf thing had a tech explanation. Like even an Easter egg in another ep talking about developing a lycanthropy virus or something might've made that one a little easier for me to swallow. Though, I'll also admit that someone spoiled that episode twist for me before I watched, so my thoughts could be tainted.
