- Hey Knights! Welcome to our BLACK MIRROR Season 6: Beyond The Sea reaction. Two astronauts on a distant mission are able to live their domestic lives on Earth, including being with their loved ones, vicariously through robot doppelgangers who are controlled by them...yeah what could go wrong!?
This episode was fantastic and the ending will stick with us for a very long time as all good Black Mirror episodes do. Starring Aaron Paul as Cliff Stanfield, Josh Hartnett as David Ross and Kate Mara as Lana Stanfield all of their performances in this are outstanding. The entire episode could've easily gone the cliché route but instead the writers take a turn when we least expect it.
We hope that you enjoy our commentary as we react and post reaction discussion.

BLACK MIRROR JOAN IS AWFUL REACTION: • BLACK MIRROR Season 6 ...

I like how everyone thought (including myself) David would kill Cliff and take his body. But we all forgot one big plot point, its a TWO MAN SHIP!!! Which means if one dies the other wouldn't be able to run the ship alone pretty much killing yourself.
Yeah! We all assumed one would take care of the other! We did keep in mind the 2 man ship situation. We just figured neither of them would care after what happens to Cliff’s family.
Yeah! And Cliff did mention that his wife hated David and didn't want him to return.. so there's no reason for David to pretend to be Cliff if he's not wanted there.
At first I thought David was going to use his body to go after and kill the people that killed his family.
@@sallyatticumno point in that, they turned themselves in , they’re in jail lol
@@iAmBeautifulAlways Still what I thought. That he would go after their families or find them in court or something. It wasn't a complete theory.
Bro the false sigh of relief when the light does green is so deceptive 😂
Moral of the story , misery dont just love company..it demands it.
That would actually be a great tagline for this episode!
@@OfficialMediaKnights Damn, lmao there goes my riches, love yall channel. God bless.
Thank you so much for watching this with us! It means the world ❤️
Lol she said “ I like the more messed up episodes” I can’t wait to finish now 😂
Hahaha the ending definitely met my, ehem, requirements 😂😂😂
Haha! I said that too! Annnnddd then that ending! 😂😂😂
3:25: "Hide your kids, hide your wife." Couldn't be more accurate.
it's the chair kick & the blacked- out eye, menacing look on Hartnett's face for me! (& i thought, performance wise, it couldn't possibly match or gett better after A. Paul's emotional cry scene!
I am just glad Josh Hartnett is slowly making a comeback! He was soooo good in Penny Dreadful!
This episode made me sad and realize how awesome Josh is as a villian that M. Night Shamylan wanted him in his new film TRAP
Another show you guys gotta check out is Poker Face! so many underrated but amazing celebs in that show!
This is definitely an episode that stayed with me and sparked insightful discussions. Just wanted to drop a line and say how much I've been enjoying your reactions. Keep it up, you guys. Cheers :)
17:59 Obviously ignoring the hindsight, I think I would let him borrow my link, despite the red flags.
It's not even a question of if it's the right thing to do, or to show kindness to a person who's suffering. At this point, it's about survival.
My real body is stuck in space with the one guy who can bring us back both alive. He has no human interaction except for the one day in the week I have to perform my physical, and the few times there is an issue I need to fix. Even if his family was not murdered in front of him, there is no way he'd last 4 more years at this rate. And my survival depends on his mental health.
You make an excellent point! There certainly is a very interesting dynamic of morality vs survival - having a healthy sense of suspicion though, is a good thing, I believe. Especially considering that Cliff has a family he needs to worry about, and David is visibly unstable from the beginning. It's definitely a difficult question to answer that requires a lot of nuance!
Loves y’all’s reactions so much! This one was insane 😂
We would pay to see every single one of you during those final moments! What a ride!
9:33 this part makes me laugh just cause like, why clarify it’s him lol. They’re the only two people around in space ahahah
AHAHHAAHHAHA, did not catch that until you mentioned it! I'm guessing it was because he had no idea how to handle it. Maybe he also didn't want to startle him as he approached him from behind? Either way it's hilarious 😂
@@OfficialMediaKnightsyeah that’s the logical reasoning, but it still makes me giggle 😆
Saaame, now I will always giggle thinking of that line 😂
She feels like a invisible woman to her husband. Hey 👋🏻 guys.
Having to spend 4 years with the guy who murdered your family is crazy. I know it’s just a show but did think it was a little unrealistic that they had no contact with Mission Control, this is even present on the Apollo missions that lasted like a week. Maybe they could have helped out.
Yeah they mentioned Mission Control once! Right after the “tubing incident” it did kind of feel like they just sent them out there with no supervision. And yeah 4 years! I personally (Ari) don’t think Cliff waited long after the end to do his business. Because they alternative sounds like hell!
What difference would being in constant contact with mission control make?
Well first of all why didn't they just send their clones up to space instead of the other way around? It just makes no sense. I feel like black mirror just has so many plot holes here and there.
@@glad_exe they are not clones (clones would be human). They are robot replicas. My assumption is that the replicas are still a work in progress. If they break down on earth, there is a possibility of repairing them while the space mission goes on. If the replicas were to break down in space there would be no way to fix them and the mission would be lost. And such missions would probably cost tens of billions of dollars
@@glad_exeI thought the same thing at first, but David said at the beginning of the episode that the affects of space on the human body is a large part of the mission. They wouldn’t get any information by sending the replicas into space.
Hey guys! Thank you for watching this with us ❤ What an episode! This one was basically a movie and we found the plot to be quite interesting! The writers made an incredible job at taking concepts that have been done before and making us feel like this might be a cliché story but then they'd go for the unexpected! Brilliantly done!

Really hope Loch Henry is the next reaction because that episode is GREAT. Maybe one of my favourite Black Mirror episodes tbh and its a classic BM that makes you feel empty and dirty inside afterwards
Loch Henry is definitely coming to the channel! Been hearing some great things about the episode. That’s some big praise! Excited to discuss it with you guys soon😃
That one was good too.
I love how feeling empty and dirty inside is the litmus test to how good a BM episode is. Yall need psychotherapy 😂
It’s like the measuring tool we all use to know how good the episode was😂 we definitely need help
Shut Up.And Dance
"The full choreography" LMAO, that was good
This was a great episode. But it's one of those things where you have to be able to control how you talk to people in certain situations especially when you don't know the person's mental state. It's like when someone beeps the horn at you at a traffic light. You could either decide to not react. Or you could get out or make some kind of gesture to that person that could lead to you being killed. Or if someone is robbing your house. Do you go downstairs and tell them how crazy they are? Do you call them a low life. No you call the cops.
You’re absolutely right when it comes to behavior in a real life scenario! Safety is first! Never let ego get the best! But in the case of this episode! I’ve watched it a few times and I think although what Aaron Paul’s character said was wrong and probably played a part. Josh Hartnett’s character had already made up his mind. There’s very subtle acting that gives us a hint when the idea clicks in his mind. And it’s during the “you don’t even know what you have” line or something among those lines.
His body language and demeanor changes and if you’ve watched the episode and know the twist it’s like you can see the idea slowly come together.
What Aaron Paul’s character said just really sealed the deal. But I don’t think he really wanted to go down and apologize in the first place.
I saw some of your reactions over on J20 compilations to The Last of Us and so I came over to your reaction channel. You guys are so insightful and fun to watch, I hope many others who watch J20 and Mixed Reactions will view your reactions and elevate your channel. You deserve it.
love your channel , been binging all your videos
Oh wow. I probably shouldn't have done two episodes today cause I definitely feel that Black Mirror effect on me now, but this was fantastic and I wanted to see the reaction for this too asap. Messed-up and extremely atmospheric, I really enjoy space stuff too and this was a very interesting concept from the start and that just got more and more intriguing and bleak and fascinating, which is what every space thing should have lol. Very intriguing mix of concepts here, and just. Wow. Getting to watch both Aaron Paul and Josh Hartnett doing some acting masterclasses in this (Aaron Paul was 2 in 1!), and the alternate universe take on the '60s that's still very....'60s. The juxtaposition of the color grading with the couples at the beginning is so well done. I think the soundtrack reminds me a lot of the 2017 Prey game, and so does the atmosphere when they're up there. A very complex one, with extremely layered characters. Like my gut reaction to Aaron Paul's character was very wary, and continued to be so due to his overall way, but then that fight they have and he does get show his emotion and we get more of a glimpse into who he is...and obviously Josh Hartnett's...well. Quite a switch from my initial read of him, which makes sense but I wonder if this is all the trauma or if there was something more to him under that golden sheen at the start. Very very very interesting. I've really enjoyed all three episodes I've seen so far, this one is one of the haunting ones that stick.
Sorry for this loooooooooong comment. This episode is all about human interactions.
First, the original French version of Beyond the Sea is the one Shannon sang to Sayid in Lost at the start of their romance. So it's a romantic thing but also, maybe, an illustration of strangers going towards each other.
Then, the second song in French (the singer is a Belgian legend of the 1950s and 1960s) says: "If you only possess love, my friend, you hold the whole world in your hands".
The ending also reminds me of a French thing. In the play by the philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, Huis Clos (Behind Closed Doors), three individuals find themselves, once dead, locked together in the same room forever. They have nothing in common and hate each other. "Hell is other people" is the key phrase of the play.
Love is everything and therefore you have to reach out to others, unlike Cliff, but David on his side is too sociable: he likes to be adored like a star, he exposes himself proudly, does not protect himself and does not not protect his family, but others can be a danger.
Finally, we need those we don't like to survive. David and Cliff are interdependent and stuck with each other behind closed doors for 4 endless years. Cliff first lent his link because he needs David to stay mentally and physically healthy. Finishing the episode on Beyond the Sea may mean that they will have to live together and cooperate despite what happens, like strangers who depend on each other.
OK, I'm going all over the place it seems... Finally, the way you see the metaphor of working all week until the weekend, Ari, is pretty pessimistic. Can't we do a job that we love and sometimes meet future true friends there? On the other hand, I have an idealistic view of work and I quit all my jobs after 2 or 3 years because my bosses suck LOL
Loved the fun facts! It’s good to know a little bit more of context through what the songs were saying. And yes! There’s only two possibilities with the ending. They left it up to us to decide. We both have different views on the outcome! Ari believes that Cliff would’ve definitely k*led David shortly after we cut to black. Denise believes that Cliff would try to ride it out until they’re back home. And then maybe devise a plan to get back at him. Also yeah…I know it may be a little pessimistic. But reality sometimes can be a bit harsh. There’s a lot of people stuck doing a job out of responsibility for bills or family. It’s pure survival. And then of course there’s many lucky people that get to fall in love with what they do! But we’ve all been there at some point in life where we feel trapped by an endless cycle/routine. We definitely feel you when you say you quit frequently because of your bosses - very few things are as suffocating as working somewhere the leadership is weak or warped with egotistical wants. This is where your mentioned quote does come in - Hell is other people. And all we can do is face up to reality and make the changes we can because we owe it to ourselves to live the best life we can, appreciating the ones we love and who love us because if this episode shows us anything it’s that life is fleeting and fragile, and can be turned upside down, even by those you have helped.
@@OfficialMediaKnights Living only for their two weekend days and finding no satisfaction in their job: THIS is hell on Earth. Yes, I was there too, for almost ten years. Since then, I only do jobs that I love (until I don't love them anymore and leave... I'm a free spirit LOL) Sure, not everyone is so lucky, but your view of working is so depressing and sad 😭: Monday to Friday it's like your life is stolen from you, you don't see your family and friends, you don't like any of your activities, it's like five days totally wasted. I had absolutely not perceived this subject in this episode.
Unfortunately, this is the daily life of many poorly paid hardworkers, probably the majority on this Earth. It's called exploitation 😟Good luck to them. I guess I'm damn privileged.
To end on a more cheerful note: your stress during this episode is super entertaining. This YT video is really funny 😄
Hahaah fair point, it may come across as depressing, we always just looked at it more as a wake up call. You're right - if you're spending so much of your time at a job, you should be able to enjoy it. Sadly, the system in many countries doesn't allow much freedom - whether it's education or even the sociopolitically pushed narratives of work and its perceived importance to a person's value. Everybody deserves to enjoy life to the fullest. We have experienced both scenarios, and let me tell ya, feeling stuck like that IS depressing af 😂😂😂
Also giiiirl, this episode was AGONY 😂 We both were stressed the f*** out but I'm glad our suffering gave you joy 😂
Thank you again for always providing such great comments and thoughtful insights, it's always such a joy! Giving us plenty food for thought!!
@@OfficialMediaKnights Arf, you're too kind❤
One show I’d definitely wanna see reactions to is lost. That was such a good show and is black mirror quality in my opinion. So many great shows out there :)
Why wouldn't they have it the other way to where the replicas are on the ship. It would make so much more sense. Guess that tells you how this hypothetical situation automatically assumes these corporations and big tech prioritize their own desires over whatever their employees/workers may need, which I guess is a valid assumption to make tbh.
Okay wait I just thought of something. If they are able to have their consciousness inhabit their ‘avatar’ body, then why the hell didn’t they send the avatars in space and keep the real guys down on earth?! What’s the reason they had to be separated from their families and risk dying if they have the technology to be in space without risking their lives to do it? Am I missing something in watching reactions or am I making a good point lmao
No no...We've been asking ourselves the exact same question. It comes down to this: if it was the other way around we wouldn't have an episode 😂 Maybe it could be justified by "they need a specific amount of energy to charge the replicas which would simply not be viable on the spaceship" But they never really gave us any limitations when it comes to how they work except "they charge in a chair looking thing"
Think of it like this. If there is an error with their replicas for whatever reason on earth, then the only down side would them not being able to see their families for some number of years. But if it was the reverse, any error that could happen with the replica in space then botches the mission completely, and the mission more than likely costs a LOT of money
@@OfficialMediaKnightslmfao okay true. I guess I’ll just go with that bahaha
THIS. It would've been so much more logical to have their robotic selves in space, stay on Earth, and inhabit them once a week. We sort of get a reason in the very beginning when David tells that fan the mission is about "sustaining life," but if they just EQUIPPED THE ROBOTS WITH SENSORS they could tell if conditions were habitible for humans without risking lives!
Also, why doesn't Cliff call someone from down on Earth when he discovers his family dead?
Also also I feel like they would've immediately called the mission off and evac-ed them after what happened to David's family. Like what the f*ck.
Regarding the mission David says “survival of human life is central to the mission”.
Not gonna lie...I've been procrastinating on watching black mirror but...commenting for the algorithm!!!!✊
Thanks for the support! Definitely give this episode a watch when you have the time. It’s worth it!
Glad that you are doing BM! Stronger than S5 for sure~ great reaction as usual! My fav is Demon 79 ~ hoping it'll pique your interest , if not that's ok too~! Congrats on growing the channel so much!
Hey! So nice to see your comment. We love Black Mirror! So glad you guys are enjoying these as well. We’ll be doing Demon 79! Really intrigued by that one. And thank you so much! It means the world to us ❤️
Hi guys. Just found your channel with BM. Just some late advice to doing reactions that MANY channels make a mistake about. Throughout this reaction I noticed so many predictions being made and "I know they are going to" phrases being blurted out. The BEST reactions are those that come natural WITHOUT predictions because YOU DON'T KNOW. That's what we as an audience look forward to. Even if you don't know because it is a "first time" it taints the freshness of the feelings and words you say WHEN an action or scene occurs that's surprising. Thank you, guys for your BM reactions.
SPOILER
That was one of the great episodes of this season. However, the ending was soul-crushing and infuriating. The first one was probably the best.
Yeah! That’s most of Black Mirror episodes. Few have the honor to have a happy or happyish ending. Absolutely loved what they did with it. And not knowing the outcome only adds to the fuel in terms of being disturbed.
Love these vids and gotta love the Denise... too cute!
WATCH IDENTITY!!!!! A Must see
I’m early as hell!! So excited to watch this one
The early bird! Thank you so much for watching. This was such an experience!
This one and the last episode are the best for sure. The last episode is funny, but also dark. And this episode has the most ‘dread’ feeling this show is used to
I feel KIKE that’s a great contrast! A few episodes to try something new and the rest to keep the good stuff and what the show is known for. That’s probably the best part of making an anthology!
@@OfficialMediaKnightsomg that’s a crazy autocorrect! Lmao edit edit!
This episode really disturbed my mind a few days after watching it.
I always wondered why the didn't have the avatars in the ship instead
yo i just opened youtube. and saw this. eyyyyy
Hell yeah! Thank you for watching! ❤️
When you have a gut instinct. This could be what happens.
The 1969 time period with the family murder I feel like is an ode to the Manson murders in the late 60s, that included Sharon Tate, this whole episode was crazy especially the ending. Only thing that threw me off was when i rewatched it, the same van Cliff drives is the one we see parked by David’s house early in the episode. Was it all pre-meditated by Cliff the whole time????
Yes absolutely, it definitely felt like a strong reference to the Manson murders!
Also HOLD UP!! The same van?!? Holy crap, wait, that'd be crazy!!
Also why the event occured on 1969. Not only because the Manson family Easter eggs. But to show the gap between technology that super advance and some people still have very low understanding (mostly people with religion and cult shyt).
Another ode to Sharon Tate is Lana is reading the book Valley of the Dolls. A movie that starred Sharon Tate in 1967.
Did you skip Loch Henry or did I miss your reaction to it?
We're not doing them necessarily in the order they were released! Since it's an anthology we kind of went for the ones we were the most intrigued for! But Loch Henry is coming! ❤️
@OfficialMediaKnights Cool 😎 They name dropped the episode in Joan Is Awful when Joan and Krish were deciding what to watch on Streamberry.
There’s references in that scene to so many Black Mirror episodes! So cool!
New saying unlocked: "Happy Co-Worker, Happy Life" . jk
20:44- 😂 Rude 😂
Hahahaha listen y'all did NOT prepare us for this ish 😂😂😂😂😂
@@OfficialMediaKnights😂- True, ill just say this- Black Mirror hit hard this release with the first 3 episodes. Sometimes they have one, maybe two good ones a season. They came to play this year, and I’m all about it. I hope you two are well 😊❤
Can’t wait for Loch Henry! These 2 episode have been wild! They understood what the audience wanted from Black Mirror and they delivered. 3 out of 5 ep being good is a win in our eyes! We are doing great! Wishing you the best weekend ever ❤️
so my reaction too!!🙀
Right?! This episode was agonizingggg!!!
18:37 also Cliff's fault. His relationship with his wife wasn't very good, he kept ignoring her.
Can definitely see that. He never let himself be vulnerable around her - remember his reaction when she told him that David cried and he incredulously asked if he did it in front of her? That tells us a lot about Cliff...
@@OfficialMediaKnights I don't think it was Cliff's "fault". During the episode you see that Cliff was more of an introverted, closeminded religious man, and maybe too stringent. Perhaps he felt he could not fully interact with his wife when his consciousness was in a "plastic" body and, therefore, he could not express emotional/physical feelings to/with her. Perhaps if he felt this way, he should never have taken on such a mission. At any rate, initially I was so sad for David, but at the end after he murdered Cliff's family, I felt that David had crossed over to being horrible judging by the evil smirk he had on his face when he kicked out the chair for Cliff. So very upsetting.
Hiiiii there.... Any plans for..... Sardar udham..... Movie?????
why not just have the robots be on the ship?
Great Idea 💡 👏👏👏
Amazing episode! I think Joan is awfull, beyond the sea and demon 79 are some of the best in whole the seires!
We are super excited to check out Demon 79! So far these episodes have been fantastic. We really enjoyed this one!
@@OfficialMediaKnights Omg cant wait for that reaction!
I honestly felt too heartbroken by what happened throughout the episode to comment on release day.
Can definitely feel you on that, it was an emotionally upsetting one... Very heavy.
I too was so upset by what happened in this episode, Josh's family at the beginning of the episode and then Aaron's family at the end. I have to say I did not like the evil smirk on Josh's face as he pushed that chair out towards Aaron.
As great as this was, I wish he *didn’t* kill them. Like what if it was red paint and he was faking him out, just to give him a glimpse of what he feels like. Then maybe he’d understand- Of course I get that David was insane, but he was generally a pretty nice guy about the whole thing. Despite being like twice Cliff’s size, he didn’t try anything physical on him or forcefully use his replica or anything.
did you guys skip episode 2? are you watching them out of order?
We are gonna do Loch Henry but yeah since it’s an anthology it doesn’t really matter what order we watch them in.
Where;s episode 2?
It's out!!
WHAT WITE EP 2
Loch Henry is coming ❤️
ENTHIRAN the robot movie reaction please 😢😢😢😢😢😢🤧😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩 tamil movie
No it’s not it doesn’t take 2 years to go back space travel doesn’t work like that
Too bad it's crap since Netflix took it over!!! Nothing at all like the past seasons, does not feel like black mirror at all. What a major let down!! ABSOLUTELY Ruined Black Mirror!!
Hahahaha, maybe some counselling will help you cope with the disappointment. Meanwhile the rest of us are having fun with it
@@enadegheeghaghe6369 Some folks love to nitpick and are never satisfied. Sad, because then you don't get to just sit back and be entertained by the stories.
This episode, Demon 79, and Joan is Awful are some of the best work in all of Black Mirror imo
