Nottoomuch, assures showrunner Charlie Brooker.
Theres probably a slightly wider scope, and its probably more idiosyncratic than before, he says.
You cant pick which [episode] best represents the season theyre all outliers.
Here Brooker gives EW the exclusive rundown of each episode (spoiler free).
But Brooker says its one of the most unusual episodes hes done.
Each episode this season is a different genre; this one is a social satire, Brooker says.
Its got a creepy serenity to it and wont be what people expect.
This is one of those, but Brooker adds its the most grounded of the three.
A kitchen sink nightmarish thriller, he says.
Men Against Fire
A military story set in a post-war future.
Theyre hoping some new technological advantage will save them.
Its a horror thriller, almost likeThe Walking Dead.
It deals with online rage, teases Brooker.
It starts out like a stylish standard police procedural, then takes a bizarre turn.
Well,thatwe expected.
