    One of the trackers ended up up in her jugular. I think when she noticed that one would have been impossible to get out without bleeding out, she accepted her fate.

    honestly the one thing that really bugged me about the whole episode was that they *easily* could have made a teddy bear. Like, her coat has faux fur on it, but you can easily do it with cloth, hay/grass (let alone some other soft filling), and a little ingenuity and time to waste. If they were getting medicine it would have made sense, and now I get the metaphor, but STILL - you can make a decent teddy bear if you have time. They didn't exist for ages, and they weren't mass-produced until nearly the 1900s (but people had made similar things themselves, but again, not mass-produced - i.e. pretty much in the way I said)

    This episode made me realize how the human being is so similar to the robot. The robot did anything it was programmed to do, whether it was morally good or bad. It made me realize how we can let ourselves be used easily by hostile “leaders” and how we can set aside our morals. It reminded me a lot of when the n4z1s used to excuse themselves by saying they were only following orders.

    Meh, I think it's underrated for good reasons. It's just a generic horror story that doesn't bother to go anywhere. Can you spot any exposition within the episode? Because I can't. Black Mirror is a clever show, and they could've done better than this, in my opinion. I have seen short independent horror films that pack in more than this! All opinions aside, this is a very lazy episode of Black Mirror. You can't write a script and just let the audience do all of the hard work for you. What happened? Why are there robotic dogs everywhere? Why do they stick trackers in you? Who built them? Where is everyone else? Literally every question is left unanswered and that is unacceptable! Anyone can write a story without context and let the viewers do the work; adding in a clever twist is what was needed. I hate the "it was all a dream" cliché, but it would've been better.

    I’m so glad you revisited and gave this episode a proper review! I know this episode gets a lot of hate, as the casual fan finds it boring, but it is honestly one of my favorites - definitely in my top 5 in the series. It’s frightening! And it’s not completely far fetched. I loved everything about the dogs though, from their similar Boston Dynamic design, to its POV, to the way it moves and sounds. The decision to shoot the episode in black and white was absolutely spot on. I read somewhere that Charlie originally wanted this episode to have no dialogue whatsoever, and while I think that’s an interesting idea, I’m glad it wasn’t the case. Also, the thought of the dogs being controlled by people - the idea being it was some old, evil, mega-rich weirdo living in seclusion on some island off the coast in a huge mansion-like compound, remote controlling the dogs. Again, an interesting concept... but overall, I like the ambiguity that the episode portrayed. I know it isn’t gonna happen, but I’d love to see a series / season following this episode. Just think The Walking Dead, sans the walkers and replaced with these dogs. Great video, as always dude 👍🏽

    Has anyone else considered the possibility that the teddy bear in the ‘Metalhead’ episode of ‘Black Mirror’ might be more than just a simple toy? Specifically, could it be a receptacle for consciousness, similar to the bear in the ‘Black Museum’ episode? The idea struck me that the desperate quest for the teddy bears in ‘Metalhead’ could have a deeper meaning, possibly linked to preserving the mind of the dying child mentioned in the episode. This could create an intriguing thematic link between the two episodes. Thoughts?

    I liked this episode as a proper "change of pace" for Black Mirror instead of the "happy" ones like San Junipero. It was black and white, and was more of a bottle episode where the connectivity of the other episodes did not apply, yet was still in the theme of being dark and technology run amok. Plus, the change of pace is felt in this being basically a chase Doing that theme would lead one to do a "end of the world" episode and this one I think fit nicely.

    Ok, so you can see some light in the deep darkness of this episode. It's just that this little glimmer of hope won't really change much. This whole episode is just comparing the final days of a dying child and the last few steps of humanity before the inevitable end. These robots feel no pity, no remorse, no fear. They will not stop until evey last human is dead. This episode is about as dark as it gets, so it makes sense why it's shot in black and white.

    What's dark is that the robot is almost certainly a drone. The technology doesnt seem so far advanced they could casually make an advanced AI for a replaceable, mass produced weapon and it was able to problem solve at a level beyond a simple point and shoot program. So there was probably a human operator somewhere behind it, guiding its actions, playing it like a videogame.

    Metalhead had a horrible ending. If anything, it's an unintentional satire of unbridled suburban consumerism transcending through to the apocalypse it likely caused. It's about a "parent" who can't say no to their "kid" about getting a toy -- so a whole bunch of people have to die to get it.

    @@dustinjones7458 "Sometimes I think the world is divided between people who understand why you'd do that and people who would operate metal head drones for a paycheck." Okay, because only those two options could possibly exist. There couldn't possibly be the option of comforting the kid in some other way and not risking your life, especially as it was an obvious suicide mission. Furthermore, there's nothing indicating they are operated drones. Also, having everyone die to the metalhead robots for a teddy bear is still dumb, even if it is for a dying kid. You're right; there are two types of people in the world: Naive idealists who think the ends justify any means if it "feels right", regardless of whether those ends are correct or even attainable (e.g. communists). Then there are people who have a balanced sense of judgement and don't act purely on the emotion to throw everything away to make some useless point or satisfy some pointless sentimentality. The kid is dying and you're going to kill three people to give that kid a teddy bear? Hence you've already resigned yourself to the fate that all is lost, because that is the only way to justify such a fruitless suicide mission. There are two types of people: Those with hope and those without it. The only implication that living and resisting is pointless in the Metalhead world, is the characters' willingness to sacrifice themselves for trivialities. They have lost all hope, while no reality in life implies hopelessness; it is a choice to lose hope. Just ask Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.

I mean, would you want to be the one going for the bear-or the one operating the drone?
