From the Vault: Bandersnatch

From the Vault: Bandersnatch

As Netflix is set to remove its most ambitious creation on May 12, we revisit this classic episode of Stuff to Blow Your Mind. From its literary origins in the mirror realm of Lewis Carroll to its terrifying appearance in Charlie Brooker's “Black Mirror,” the frumious Bandersnatch is a monster from which it is useless to flee. Robert and Joe follow its trail through a maze of choice, freewill, advertising and streaming media. (originally published Jan 9, 2020)
