Netflix rings out the old year with 'Death to 2020' mockumentary trailer
Watch Next

How many times has it been said that 2020 is awful, the worst, etc? As the year comes to an end, the creators of Black Mirror are looking to put a stark, halting piece of punctuation on it with Death to 2020, a Netflix comedy event.

Dubbed as the "definitive story of the most historic year in history," the mockumentary Death to 2020 stars a gaggle of great actors playing all kinds of people from doctors to regular citizens to powerful politicians. There isn't a heavy dose of comedy in this trailer, but you can feel the undertones bubbling up from the dark and dramatic outer appearance.

And that jab at Quibi right at the end, just wonderful.

Death to 2020 rings out the year on Netflix on Dec. 27.
