I'll watch it, but I feel like the quality has dipped a bit. Lots of "well known" actors in that preview, when I feel this series was really good at casting relative unknowns.
Hoping we get something like Love Death + Robots where 90% of the episodes are a major hit.

Hasn’t been a solid season of black mirror in years
Yeah, it’s been noticeable since the show left Channel 4 and Netflix took over.

I've been a fan of Black Mirror from the jump but what drew me in on the first few seasons was how plausible yet unlikely some of the episodes were in terms of actually happening in the real word ....... but now adays nothing would surprise me because reality is just as twisted, corrupt, and technologically advanced as the episodes.
That kinda takes the thrill out of it a bit in a way (on top of some of the terrible episodes/seasons after seasons 1 & 2)
That said I'll be tuning in for at least an episode or two to see if they can recapture any of the magic from the first few seasons.

Will always tune in for new Black Mirror
For me, i dunno how to describe it other than the novelty wearing off. 14 years ago when it was just some weird British show doing a sorta modern take on the Twilight Zone, it felt unique if not innovative. This was around the time British shows were killin with Misfits, Utopia, Orphan Black, Luther, etc. delivering a quality and maturity that at the time in the USA you'd only find on premium channels but not to the same wide range of stories.
But I think in this era of streaming, every other show has some weird twilight zone type backdrop or plot twist going for it. From Severence to From to Paradise to Silo to 3-Body Problem, etc. It's no longer a carved out storytelling niche, so these anthology stories will really have to just stand out.

I won't say going American made it bad, but it has gotten considerably worse the longer it got Hollywood/Netflxed. The original UK seasons were like cooked crack
Something tells me if Brooker and co. were forced to make a new season and had to use no Americans and set it in England, it would improve.
The budget and the casting has become a crutch.
shyts gone completely downhill since they had nikkas fukkin each other through the video game
But ima still check it out
