In the opening scene of the 2018 ‘Black Mirror’ episode ‘Bandersnatch‘, viewers are given the task to choose between two sweet cereals for the character Stefan (Fionn Whitehead), a feature that aligns perfectly with the plot about a programmer creating an interactive game. This is typical of ‘Black Mirror’, a show that consistently delves into the dark and controlling aspects of advanced technology. ‘Bandersnatch’ stood out as Netflix’s premier interactive content, thanks to its thematic relevance and holiday season launch. However, this innovative feature was first introduced in a 2017 short film titled ‘Puss in Book’, featuring a sword-fighting cat from the ‘Shrek’ series. As streaming platforms became more competitive towards the end of the 2010s, the interactive aspect of select Netflix programs served as one of the few unique selling points to distinguish it from others.
In December last year, Netflix significantly reduced its collection of interactive content, such as “Puss in Book”, with very few titles still available. As of May 12th, “Bandersnatch” and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy vs. the Reverend” are set to depart from the platform, according to What’s On Netflix. Both “Bandersnatch” and “Kimmy vs. the Reverend” were special episodes, although the latter served as a finale for the sitcom, not being essential to the overall storyline of the show. Neither Netflix, Charlie Brooker, nor Tina Fey have provided comments regarding this matter.
It seems as if these titles departing from the platform, coinciding with Netflix’s revamped homepage, indicates a significant transformation in the streaming marketplace. The updated homepage will continue to showcase TV shows and movies, but Netflix is also focusing on highlighting its live events and games. You only have one more weekend left to decide the fates of the stories in both “Bandersnatch” and “Kimmy vs. the Reverend.” This means you’ll need to make your decisions quickly about how these tales should conclude. Whether these episodes will continue in a non-interactive format is yet to be determined. Perhaps Netflix will let us decide on that matter.
