If you don't propose it in the cleanup thread, chances are they'll discuss it eventually, so you might as well make your case there now. Read up here on what the content of your proposal needs to be, and note that you can't propose her until two weeks past the US release of the episode.
Episode titles are in quotations in some places and italics in others. There are even comments stating that titles should be in italics for consistency. This is incorrect. As episodes of an anthology television series, the titles should be in quotes, with only the title of the series itself in italics.

Agreed. Any episode titles should be in quotation marks. The titles on Black Mirror should also not be italic.
Wasn't aware of this rule; I added the comments for uniformity. Sorry about that. Will start reverting what I can.
Hm, the individual "series" pages are better off as individual recap pages for the specific episodes, considering the tropes are already segregated by episode. Would cutting the "Series One", "Two," etc. pages and replacing them with recap pages would be a good idea?
The third episode is interesting in that even when events can be recalled and displayed as objective proof, because the truth is often held by the liar people still lie. I cannot work out what trope that would be.
The whole idea of being rewarded for staring at the screen in the second episode reminded me of Robert Rankin's novel Armageddon: The Musical. In Rankin's post-apocalyptic dystopia, citizens are actually rewarded for pointing their irises at a TV screen, whereas Black Mirror has them paying for the privilege of turning off, but it's the same kind of thing. The protagonist, Rex Mundi, has taught himself to sleep with his eyes open, so the system rewards him for viewing while he's asleep.
Main page is currently incomplete as the first episode is airing today. Just getting it ready to avoid confusion with the videogame.
Er, hello. Don't want to tread on any toes here but I really didn't know where else to discuss this. I think Catherine Ortez from Ashley Too is a Complete Monster. She's heinous even by the standards of the story' after all she's a Manipulative Bitch who has drugged, controlled and bullied her own niece, Ashley Oh for most of her life ever since she adopted her, is even willing to leave her in a coma for the rest of her life just so that she can harness her brainwaves and continue to profit from her music whilst she's entirely conscious, leaving Ashley Oh in an And I Must Scream fate that's easily as horrible as any of the others on the show so there's heinousness right there. Her actions evoke revulsion in the main characters and when she's exposed at the end of the story, presumably she's immediately imprisoned for her actions. She's like Viserys in that while she's a caregiver, she's a horribly abusive one who cares nothing for her charge, seeing her merely as a means of gaining fortune and fame for herself, so she's devoid of benevolent qualities. Then at the end as soon as police officers with guns turn up at the studio, she shows what a Dirty Coward she is by immediately throwing herself flat on the stage, whimpering "I don't want to die, I don't want to die" over and over again. Catherine's nothing more than a narcissistic monster, obsessed with gaining the wealth, fame, power and attention she believes she deserves and feels entitled to use her niece solely as a means of obtaining them whilst living vicariously through her. I would have proposed her in the CM Cleanup Thread but I don't know how to so I thought I'd bring it up on the page for the work she appears in.
