"Black Mirror" is back! Fans of the hit Netflix original can stay up late into the night to catch the five new episodes of season 6, available to stream now.

You can watch the official "Black Mirror" trailer here.

The show, which first aired in 2011, is beloved by fans for its dystopian and unsettling themes. Even still, show creator and writer Charlie Brooker said this season will “stretch the parameters” of what "Black Mirror" is.

“Partly as a challenge, and partly to keep things fresh for both me and the viewer, I began this season by deliberately upending some of my own core assumptions about what to expect,” he said to Netflix. "The stories are all still tonally 'Black Mirror' through-and-through — but with some crazy swings and more variety than ever before.”
