The U.K.’s transfixing sci-fi miniseries Black Mirror has been picked up by Netflix.
If you haven’t watched its (fantastic) existing episodes, you should probably just stop reading this and go do that now.

All caught up? Great.
Though only seven total Black Mirror episodes have been aired so far, they were released mainly in two bursts during 2011 and 2013, with a Christmas special in 2014. The new batch will be a whopping 12 episodes, all of which will debut on the streaming service internationally.
Producers Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones will stay on in their roles and as showrunners, preserving the eerie tone that made Black Mirror famous.
Brooker has already started writing, with production and release dates still to be announced by Netflix.
