I like it for different reasons than the other episodes, I thought it was really funny.

Yeah, you've said. I plan on rewatching the show again and maybe it'll connect a little more on the 2nd viewing, but I just found it to be fairly uneventful and mediocre as a whole. I think that's mainly because I like the episodes that teeter on thriller/sci-fi horror territory.

Completely and utterly gobsmacked. Spent the first 35-40 minutes thinking what the **** is going on and where is this headed. (much like most of the episodes of this show) But once you get the reveal it hits you like a ton of bricks. And then you just sit back and watch everything resolve while tears keep running down your face.
Absolutely brilliant and original writing and conception. And the acting by the two leads is as good as it gets. Blown away. Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth? Ooh heaven is a place on earth They say in heaven love comes first We'll make heaven a place on earth Ooh heaven is a place on earth

Gobsmacked is exactly how San Junipero left me, I remember thinking exactly that right after I watched it. Just thinking about that episode kind of makes me teary eyed.

Nosedive was so good to me. I loved it. I loved watching a perfectionist slowly crumble and fall to pieces.
