    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Although meant to represent a Californian beach town, San Junipero was actually shot in Cape Town, South Africa. As was another in Season 3, Nosedive (2016).
    • Goofs
      In 1987, when Yorkie goes to the Quagmire, the Pixies song Something Against You is playing. The song wasn't released until 1988. However, San Junipero was not primarily intended to be scrupulously free of anachronisms; as a place where the elderly and dying can go to relive fond memories of their youth, recreating the overall look, sound and feel of the era would be much more important than making sure everything was pinpoint accurate.
    • Quotes

      Kelly: 49 years. I was with him for 49 years. You can't begin to imagine. You can't know the bond, the commitment, the boredom, the yearning, the laughter, the love of it. The fucking love. You just cannot know! Everything we sacrificed. The years I gave him. The years he gave me. Did you think to ask?

    10/10
    One of the best episodes in television
    There are no words to describe how perfect this episode was, I was always impressed by the darker theme of this TV series and the way it portrays humanity's future in a dire way.

    This episode managed to showcase that, but with a happier ending, without dropping any quality that Charlie Brooker accustomed us in other episodes, his ideas and writing are stunning and I didn't even get to talk about the acting, which was also incredible, as well as the design of the scenes, it felt so genuine and when I thought it can't get any better, there came the soundtrack, it was just sublime, combined with the wonderful acting of the two women and with the perfect cinematography.

    This episode was truly a masterpiece.
