Sadly, this episode was just on a totally different level than the rest. Feels too similar to ideas already explored in other movies; and it isn't particularly well-presented here to elevate it above those comparisons. Also Waldo himself is just super annoying

A cartoon become a political entity on the back of anti-establishment soundbites? Nah, it couldn't...(looks at Nigel Farage)... oh.

probably the most lackluster episode, as far as this series goes. still entertaining and strong, but it just didn't have the shock factor or necessarily the humanity so sharply present in the other episodes. to me, it just felt a bit too ordinary. it was still immensely revelatory about technology and our mass media culture, but for me, it didn't reach the level of excellence i've come to expect of this show.

Seen: 3.

Just plain bad, even if it had moments.

Laughable.

Ted running for political carer.

My least favorite episode to date, it's mildly entertaining.

While this has now become one of the most scarily realistic representations of modern society, it's still fairly flawed and lacklustre in its execution. I wasn't really a fan.

Where's Waldo? In my least favorite episode of 'Black Mirror', that's where.

The whoe series seems to be emanating from the idea that mankind will be beaten down by its own material and technical advancements. There is nothing which guarantees our authenticities as unique beings. We can easily be replaced by anything, so long as those "things" can attract desire and be valued by the society.

Excellent.

Initially thought this would be too british-political for me since I don't know what 'tory' means, but I was fascinated by the unexpectedly impassioned conversation about political apathy that developed. Great performances made this work; the pathos of Rigby's rants caught me by surprise. (Seems my taste in Black Mirror episodes is turning out rather contrarian...)

A more light-hearted episode, but hardly any less brilliant than the darker ones. I think Rigby did a terrific job playing both the perfect parody that is Waldo as well as the comedian who effortlessly panders to an unserious demographic, all the while questioning his motives, especially when a little romance is involved. There's some pretty satisfying to watch moments of writing and acting here, like when Waldo lets loose against his two candidates.

While it lacks the subtle message the other Black Mirror episodes excelled in, I feel like the story and acting still held up. Could have easily turned into some predictable boring romance but rose above it.

Thanks to an unshakable sense of disconnect that previous episodes more or less manage to avoid, 'The Waldo Moment' is a relatively weak episode as far as 'Black Mirror' is concerned, but it's nonetheless effective in its commentary on critical apathy and appeals to the lowest common denominator...until the deliberate, but silly, ending.

Waldo is about as subtle as a kick in the balls, as is this episode's message. Still good though.

Started real good, ended real stupid.

this one was a bit too 'on the nose'

Telecracy against democracy.
