"Black Mirror" is back to bend our minds all over again this month, and Netflix has just given us our latest look at the sci-fi series in action — and now I'm excited.
The new teaser for Charlie Brooker's satirical anthology series dropped yesterday (March 31).
It contains more scenes from the six new episodes, reveals all their titles and serves up some fresh details about what's in store when the series returns on April 10.
Now, I've been watching "Black Mirror" since the series first appeared on our screens over a decade ago, and this looks like a must-see new collection of stories.
I say this as someone who really didn't enjoy the previous season all too much. None of them were truly bad episodes on the level of "The Waldo Moment", but they also don't represent the show at its peak.
However, Charlie Brooker's admission this new chapter is "a little bit OG 'Black Mirror'" (via Tudum) and the footage we've seen so far makes it look like we're in for a treat.
The stakes look high (especially for the USS Callister crew), hints of dark humor, and, unsurprisingly, there's some twisted new tech on display.
In other words, it looks like everything we could want from a fresh batch of "Black Mirror", right?
What are the 'Black Mirror' season 7 episode titles?

Everything is going well for her until someone she hasn’t seen since school — a woman named Verity — shows up for a focus group tasting session.
