I'm not the kind of person who gets effected deeply by media, but I was working on a project that had me sitting down for about 12 hours straight this past weekend so I ended up watching every episode of Black Mirror in a row. I had just visited the Bodies Exhibit that morning and after viewing the entirety of your show in a row, I ended up in a strange mindset of existential dread that was weighing me down. I kinda lost my cool when I ended my marathon viewing with "Be Right Back". I lost my mother at 15 and I fear losing my wife or her losing me constantly, especially after watching that episode. I ended up having a severe anxiety attack later that night that landed me in the ER because I couldn't function and thought I was having a heart attack. Thank you for creating such a brilliant show. And thanks for inadvertently allowing me to realize I'm not invincible and to seek help for my severe anxiety disorder.

My question is, did you grow up a big fan of Rod Serling and his writing? There seems to be a big connection there between both of your subject matter and style of writing. I tell my friends that Black Mirror is The Twilight Zone with technology.
