Dramas that are difficult to watch

[mtbc]

The television drama Black Mirror (2011) occupies a strange and special place in how I regard shows. As an anthology series it is unusually good at presenting interesting ideas to which I am glad to be exposed. However, as evening entertainment, goodness, it's often bleakly, unpleasantly depressing, it's more fun to watch Waking the Dead (2000) and that's a show that makes Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999) seem light. I find Black Mirror heavy going and do not choose to watch it but I would like to be in the position of having watched more of it as I find myself coming back to thinking about episodes that I have seen.

Yes, the pig episode wasn't much notable for me in any respect, apart perhaps from having a small nice twist.
