2020: A year so [insert adjective of choice here], even the creators of Black Mirror couldn't make it up… but that doesn't mean they don't have a little something to add. This comedy event that tells the story of the dreadful year that was — and perhaps still is? The documentary-style special weaves together some of the world's most (fictitious) renowned voices with real-life archival footage.
Acting
Samuel L. Jackson's unhinged journalist steals every scene.
Writing
Charlie Brooker's razor-sharp COVID-era satire hits uncomfortably close.
Editing
Real footage mashed with fake interviews creates perfect documentary parody.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Filmed entirely remotely during lockdown — the cast never met in person, which somehow makes the 2020 satire even more meta.
Released December 2020, meaning they wrote and produced this WHILE the year was still happening. The writers literally didn't know if Trump would concede when they wrapped.
