- Welcome to our Mazey Day reaction! This is the fourth episode of Black Mirror season 6 and oh boy! We were definitely not expecting this from a Black Mirror episode. First time watching this and we have to say this episode has some top notch performances from Zazie Beetz, Clara Rugaard & Danny Ramirez. It gives us some more social criticism this time targeted at the paparazzi and how we as consumers have a say in what is right or wrong. We hope you enjoy as we react and have a discussion regarding the meaning of this episode.
In a day and age where everyone is a paparazzi this episode takes a look back at a time where forging photos or creating deepfakes was much harder. But the consequences still spread like wildfire.
This is technically a RED MIRROR episode but the creators chose not to disclose that as an effort to not give away anything about the plot. Even though this was a smart move I'm hesitant to say it didn't play a part on how this episode was perceived.
These new episodes with a tone that leans into the Horror genre are an effort from the creators to divorce themselves from what the show is meant to be. As artists ourselves we respect the bold move but we also understand how it would've been better to just classify this episode as something outside of the traditional for a Black Mirror episode.
All in all this season has been fantastic. Great acting all around, interesting premises and some deep criticisms that don't shy away from pointing the Black Mirror at ourselves.

This and the next episode are actually kinda pilot for a spin-off show " Red Mirror " which is focused more on horror elements, i think it shows that clearer in the last ep of this season.
waiting for EEGA movie by SS Rajamouli reaction. it is fun and great movie like RRR.
It makes so much sense upon rewatch why she was so surprised when the driver told her they found a man in the road, she thought she'd hit the wolf.
Yes!!! Imagine the sinking feeling she got when she realized what that could mean for her...
This is actually a great episode to rewatch because there's lots of lines/scenes that have a totally different meaning when you know what's really going on. I like it - I find it playful, like it's toying with the viewer.
I’m pretty sure the reason you didn’t hear much about this episode is that nobody wanted to ruin the werewolf twist haha I’m so glad you guys got it and appreciated this season for what they were trying to do. I actually really enjoyed this episode and the theme surrounding paparazzi and their monstrous nature was so on point! ❤
You definitely have a point there!! Which speaks volumes about the fanbase and their respect for other viewers and fans of the show! We are SO GLAD we weren't spoiled, it truly made the twist at the end that much more powerful! We loved the correlation between papparazzi and the monstrosity of it - the way victims are in front of the camera throughout the episode. It just broke our heart to see that Mazy was a victim in all her shapes - as an actor and a werewolf.
@@OfficialMediaKnights yes! also, upon repeated viewings there was so much dog and animal imagery throughout the episode (people calling each other dogs and animal paw prints in the background); perfect for a rewatch! 😊
This episode was terrible. What was the point, that paparazzi are bad people who invade people's privacies? Wow, rEALly??? Never would've guessed! Like, c'mon. This episode had nothing to say, that's why nobody talks about it
I honestly don't understand why people consider this episode as a "meh" one! I think it's freaking brilliant! The twist made my jaw drop on the floor because I would never ever even for a second would have a thought that she would turn into a warewolf! PTSD, a sense of guilt, drug addiction, but not THIS! Amazing episode! This season is honestly smth else and I think it's my fav for now tbh! Thank you guys for your reaction, didn't know what to expect but really glad you liked it as much as I did! Watching you is an enjoyment, thank you! ♥
When i realized that it was a werewolf story i got so excited and was giggling like a fool.
it was a nice homage to 'American Werewolf in London' (it's a testimony to how good the special effects were even back then). as people pointed out, you realize the twist behind the dialogue earlier in the episode from her car 'hitting a man' to the doctor telling her that 'it has gotten control of you', etc
Yes, most people miss the homage to Werewolf in London, a total classic. There's also a nod to the film Wolf with Jack Nicholson, and I love the colloquial metaphor that the paparazzi eventually "feed each other to the wolves."
I honestly really enjoyed all the episodes, while there's definitely a different vibe to some, I think they did it really well.
Yess!! We have been so impressed with this season - each episode brought something incredibly powerful and unique, and we really love some of the changes they brought along!
"Charlie Brooker, the creator explained before that Black Mirror isn’t about technology but human nature. It’s just always recognized because of its technological advancement but if you take away all of that, humans are just awful"
i love your channel soo muce i cant wite for your reaction of the last ep of black mirror is the bast❤❤❤❤
wait
Thank you so much, what a kind comment!!! We are so happy to have you here with us, and are pumped to share the final episode with y'all!! Thanks for all the support!! Much love back!
yeah it’s one of my faves of the season as well 😊
This & the finale was them trying out a prototype for a new show, Red Mirror covering supernatural events. I was so surprised at the ending to this but apparently the signs were all there if you watch werewolf shows & movies. From the Supermassive Black Hole song to the moon constantly being in shot to the Doctor saying its about making it through the night and the next night, typically you'd say making it through the day. Ok, that last one may be reaching.
I thought this was a good episode, I just was so shocked at the ending, I didnt know what to make of it at first.
Nono! Making it through the night was DEFINITELY intentional. And all the details you pointed out were so cleverly placed. We watched it a second time and it was great seeing it through this new perspective. We’re actually excited to see what they do with Red Mirror
19:15 🤣
19:19 I can’t BELIEVE neither of you said “the PP!” Ahahahhaa
Yet another use for PP! You are so right 😂
I love your rationale defending the new direction Black Mirror is going in. I agree 100%, after all the occult aspects are just a milieu, a storytelling device to convey the dark thematic social commentary which is still in sync with Black Mirror of the past.
I knew you will love this episode. hehe. very unexpected/surprising twist hehe
We really enjoyed it! That twist came out of nowhere for the type of show Black Mirror is. But this episode is a statement from the creators. They are doing some things differently and we think it is fair. 3 episodes that cater to the already established Black Mirror audience and 2 episodes that start to take us in a different direction. We say hell yeah! Give us Black Mirror but also give us Red Mirror and let's see where they go from here!
Man, as someone that was in my early 20s during this time in L.A. and worked in the industry, this whole episode was wild and too accurate.
Which industry? Filmmaking or Paparazzi? We’re intrigued now! But happy to hear the script itself was accurate with the depiction 😃
@@OfficialMediaKnights Filmmaking. But I was also at that age where I was going out a lot to the same places Paris, Brit, and Lindsay were going to and I saw it with my own eyes. It was brutal. I thank the universe everyday that I’m a nobody.
I told you "I have a feeling that you are going to like the episode." I didn't know why, or how to explain it, it was just a feeling. After seeing it I thought "OK, some people will probably not like it, because of this fantastic dimension, which in principle has nothing to do with Black Mirror, but I DO like it, and I don't know why, maybe it's the twist, which is so unexpected, or maybe it's something else". Some reactors helped me: it's quite consistent with the usual themes of Black Mirror, it talks about our entertainment consumer society, we treat stars like dehumanized products, the paparazzi are monsters but we are all part of the system and we are all monsters. This episode also shows the material precariousness of the paparazzi: they can earn a lot of money all at once but never regular cash flow.
Finally, have you seen From Dusk Till Dawn? I have a STRONG FEELING that you will like this very entertaining and funny movie!
Yes! We did in fact liked it! Good call haha Yeah I think if you’re not expecting a twist like that especially because it is Black Mirror it might take a few days and a second watch for someone to start liking it if they were hesitant at first. They definitely took a risk here. But overall the themes they’re tackling and how it was executed was really good. Haven’t watched Dusk Till Dawn yet so definitely adding it to our list ❤️ thank you so much for taking your time and commenting. Sorry YT has been giving you issues with posting comments
@@OfficialMediaKnights To be honest... To celebrate my very productive week I had taken my little bottle of rosé out of the fridge and after three glasses I was completely drunk so I persisted like a kid for this comment to appear. I don't know how you knew I had trouble posting this comment but I do know that I was not quite in my normal self and copied this comment an unreasonable amount of times. You've probably had a flurry of notifications. sorry guys 🥴
When I saw the goats I thought Nah, there's no way! Then it happened. Totally unexpected but pretty cool, although kind of weird for Black Mirror
For a series known for its twists giving the audience a twist they’d really NEVER expect was so much fun. They really went there 😂
Watch Identity with cusak
. Great film
Mazey may not b dead. The flash at the end most closely resembles a muzzle flash and not a camera flash. Maybe M.D. shot the photographer or the camera. The camera could knock into Bo knocking her out. This might open a sequel. A hunter killer story perhaps,
13:48 "What is this? Jurassic Park?" 🐺
It wasn't "bad" episode, the twist was nice fresh one for a Black Mirror ep; also it was very well acted by all parties; what makes it feel "worse" is the fact the other ones in the season were ->very
The twist in this one was dope because anyone would've tried to save that girl if they found her chained up like that. Lol I also completely understand the guys stupidity in that situation, those pics would've been worth alot of money.
It was a wild twist! I know it caught a lot of people off guard for a BM episode but we do believe not saying it was meant to be a Red Mirror episode was the right call. It would've given the twist away. But I think if we judge it as a different kind of BM episode we can all agree this is not bad at all. It might not be everyone's cup of tea but we love things that are out of the norm and definitely appreciated the risks the creators took with this. We enjoyed it and we're glad others did as well!
What a great reaction! I really enjoyed this episode - I thought it was fun, exhilarating and surprising. I personally love that Black Mirror is trying new things, and I trust Charlie Brooker's instincts in where he wants to take the show. It saddens me to see the amount of negativity aimed at this episode - much of it ignoring the quality of what's on screen and instead focusing on the opinion that this isn't what Black Mirror 'should' be. But for me Black Mirror is a show that is constantly shifting and evolving, and after a slightly underwhelming season 5, it needed freshening up. So I loved your reaction; it's so refreshing to see a positive response to this episode and see you both genuinely enjoying it. And I think you're both going to really enjoy Demon 79.
Yes yes and YES. Thank you! Sometimes as viewers it can be hard to understand what the creators intention or direction is. We think that in the case of this episode it was clear as day they wanted a shift. Reading more into this episode specifically it was originally meant to be a Red Mirror episode. But they feared that by marketing it this way it would give away the twist. And we agree. With a little research people would’ve understood what the reasoning behind calling it a Black Mirror episode was. But aside from that we think this is pretty much on brand with BM albeit while they use other storytelling techniques. We also understand how it might not be everyone’s cup of tea but then again…this is Black Mirror…it’s never really been a crowd pleaser.
Thank you so much for watching this with us and your kind comment ❤️
"No way. She's a fucking werewolf ". That's quality.
This one was deffo out of twilight zone lol
This one is really good
Have you done reactions to other episodes on patreon?
2:31 bro is this what I look like when I mentioned my sinuses to my former roommates when they cooked and I asked them to open up a window🙈. One was Mexican and the other Vietnamese. I don’t think it’s an asshole question of me to ask when it’s affecting the air quality and closing up my nostrils lol
You guys should watch Dead Set, created by Charlie Brooker before he started doing Black Mirror.
The way this took a Thriller turn. Kinda wanted her to break out in dance lol.
I think too many people take smug satisfaction in the fact that Black mirror is a clever intellectual social commentary and feel intellectual themselves in their fandom, so anything that veers toward Hollywood sensationalism breaks their self-identity bubble of comfort and causes some to reject it. I'm not talking about you guys, just some other reactors have had that mindset.
The reason I haven’t posted about this one is because #3 shook me a little too much, so this is my first time watching this. Which is okay believe me.
Ohhh we can definitely get you on that! We did have time between each episode so we had time to digest before we reacted to the next one. This was truly an amazing episode!
I agree. This season has played out very well, you can tell each episode was thought out to the maximum extent.
The entire season feels like a cohesive progression towards madness. Each episode becoming more and more out of the norm. Even for Black Mirror standard! Loved it
Yeah. Episode 3 was really messed up. I've only watched a few reactions to it. I don't like revisiting that ending.
Werewolves are my favorite monster so I was giddy as f*ck!
It was an excellent episode. But they need to clearly label such episodes as Red Mirror episodes.
I love your reaction to this episode! I will admit that this one is my least favorite of the season, but I enjoy this ep more and more with each reaction to it. For me, this one was rough because I knew the twist unfortunately because of another reactor's thumbnail. I might have had a different opinion if I'd gone in completely blind. Still, I think that last shot is very black mirror. Someone in pain begging for help and yet because of greed and money, she takes the camera shot, making sure to capture it. Oof!
Those final moments sealed the deal for us. This is definitely one of those episodes that leave a lasting impression and so far pretty much all of season 6 has been top notch storytelling. Sorry you got the twist spoiled…but we’re glad to hear at least watching reactions to it helps out. Thank you so much for watching this with us, it means the world ❤️
waiting for kgf reaction 🙂👀
I feel like paparazzi in my part of the world are not toxic like they are in USA or United Kingdom... This must have something to do with the size of the stardom in French Canada. 😅 Eveybody know each other, probably including the paparazzi.
Sure, we do have cheap magazines and websites covering meaningless stories about our stars, but I don't read them, so I don't really know how bad it can be.
Finally, I don't think many people here would agree that stars *have to* deal with paparazzi because it's part of "the deal"... 🤷♂ Toxic and abusive photographers and reporters are just that: abusive. :(
Usually, when a star is doing their grocery, people will remain polite and will stick to "staring" and "being slightly excited about it". 😅
Damn I'm late but I'm here
You guys are never late! Always arrive at the perfect time ❤️
Nolan’s realism was not a perfect formula. It’s a great thing of course. What I appreciated was that it leaned hard on the aspects of the heroes and villains. Thor Ragnarok had great use of color. I’m really wanting to someday see a movie that has the daring to be as vivid and comic/color accurate as marvel vs capcom was.
Definitely agreed! Nolan's realism brought a perspective to superhero movies we hadn't been lucky enough to see yet, and will therefore always be the move of a true pioneer! And yes - imagine the complexity of Nolan's storytelling combined with the colors and bright visuals of comic books! That would be a sight to behold!
@@OfficialMediaKnights Well I really mean the classic colors, at their best and cranked up high on saturation. Comics really go all over the place with aesthetics, some look dark and some run faded depressing colors. Others even go realistic looking. Looking over Onslaught saga art real quick has me seeing that you can't really match the shadow work in real life translation, unless you're working with a scene that pulls something miraculous off with lighting in the dark, like by a campfire.
Achieving that cinematically would be a challenge but if it could be achieved man…it would be a unique look. It’s always great when cinematographers pull inspiration from graphic novels/comics and recreate the look on camera. Not always easy but absolutely worth it! Thank you so much for watching this with us ❤️
@@OfficialMediaKnights It's gonna take a serious vision to coordinate a script, acting, costuming, and cgi to realize that dream. Real people don't simply perform the supernatural feats of comics. When it does happen, it will be the miracle of miracles.
It was weird but it was still a societal commentary.
Ahah weird but societal commentary tracks for sure!
👍👍
I love when she's in the back of the car snd asks what the cop says and he says "They found man in road" and she looks slightly confused and responds "man?" Just a subtle little hint at what's to come
This is definitely one of my favourites.
I've just watched T.I.M. on Netflix, that's awesome. It's very much like a Black Mirror episode but a bit longer. I would highly recommend that.
We need tumbbad. More Indian content.
