‘Death to 2020’, A Retrospective Mockumentary About the Year 2020 by the Creators of ‘Black Mirror’

Death to 2020 is a retrospective mockumentary comedy special written by Black Mirror creators Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones that takes a humorous but cynical look at the year 2020 in terms of how many things went wrong on a global scale.

Being that this talented pair understands that “art imitates life” at times, included in this list are such tragedies as the COVID-19 pandemic, the terrible firestorms in Australia and California, the worldwide protests for racial justice, and the endlessly wonky politics.

A year whose story couldn’t be told until now, because it was still happening. As the year we all want to end finally does, take a look back at 2020’s mad glory in this comedic retrospective from the creators of ‘Black Mirror’.
