How TV Ruined Your Life Series 1 Created by Charlie Brooker, written by Charlie Brooker, Jason Hazeley, Daniel Maier, Joel Morris and Dan Swimer, directed by Al Campbell and Christian Watt.
A six episode series that aired in 2011. It comes after Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe, You Have Been Watching and Charlie Brooker's Newswipe. Black Mirror started airing the same year as How TV Ruined Your Life.
Charlie comments on the effect of TV on our lives. The themes of the episodes are in the titles: Fear, The Lifecycle, Aspiration, Love, Progress and Knowledge. Each episode takes a bit of a look at the theme with plenty of commentary from Charlie. I enjoy his snide attitude and cynical outlook on life. I get a good number of laughs from each episode.
