Except for the last mini-season. I thought it was a modern day Twilight Zone.

to watch them for the first time. 😋Another awesome thing about this series, you don't have to watch in any particular order, although Black Museum S4 E6 has Easter eggs from several of the episodes, so I would recommend saving that one for after you have watched the previous episodes. Enjoy.
They are all deep and most of them are fairly dark, so not really the best candidate for binging. I did and survived, but most recommend against it.

I know what you mean about not binging. I could only take Frankenstein Chronicles in small doses, but I loved it.

But the show got less dark each season. I liked the fact that they weren't bound by a set time format. Whatever length it took to tell the story.

television, I have ever seen. I didn't watch in order and with the season's being so short, it's hard for me to put them in a category. I just watched Striking Vipers, I quite enjoyed this episode.

That was absolutely riveting. But the darkest one has to be "Crocodile". The level of evil stupidity in that one strains credulity though the scenes of Iceland are nice.

Christmas, Striking Vipers and Black Museum. I disagree with the above poster that said, they aren't as dark after season 1. Crocodile, Black Museum and Arkangel are all very dark episodes. I love the twisty nature of this show.
