San Junipero was nice in that it was the only episode in the season that wasn't completely dystopian, I won't give it away any more than that.

Personally, Shut Up and Dance was my favorite episode, as it was on the level of White Bear as being so insanely messed up. Also one of my favorite albums is OK Computer by Radiohead, so when Exit Music (For a Film) played, just wow.

You might like "Everyone in Silico" too [1]. Almost felt like San Junipero was based on that. EiS paints quite a dystopia, but was more believable. Looking forward to reading Rabin Hanson's "The Age of Ems".

That one was the worst. Not well thought out plot.
