Black Mirror Shared Universe Confirmed - Here Is What It Looks Like
Alec Bojalad Jun 5, 2019
Black Mirror creator Charlie Brooker has confirmed that all episodes of the show take place within the same universe. We figure out how.
This article is why some TV showrunners reject Easter eggs. Thankfully, Black Mirror creator Charlie Brooker hasn’t fully learned to guard himself from internet exaggerators and fabulists like myself yet. Brooker created an anthology series in which each episode features different casts, settings, and presumably universes. Then because he’s a creative and thoughtful artist, Brooker also sprinkled in some Easter Eggs into early Black Mirror episodes. Nothing major - a reference to Prime Minster David Carrow here, a Waldo bumper sticker there - it was just all in good fun.
But that doesn’t mean that all these episodes occur in the same universe, right? That would be insane. Right? Well prior to season two’s Christmas special “White Christmas,” Brooker apparently agreed.
