'Bandersnatch' Has Serious Ties to the Rest of 'Black Mirror,' So How Is Netflix Going To Explain Them After Shockingly Removing It?

One of the most troubling concerns that has emerged within the streaming ecosystem in recent years is the removal of original content that was developed for the service that it aired on. While licensed content is cycled around on a regular basis, streamers that remove their own projects essentially prevent them from being seen elsewhere, as it is rare that they are ever given a home media or digital release. In some cases, these removals happen to content that has been poorly received, such as Disney+’s deletion of the Willow sequel series. However, it is shocking that Netflix removed Bandersnatch from its streaming library, as the Black Mirrorepisode had been met with critical praise upon its debut.
