The New Haven Nose On Imagine Dragons As The Worst Band Ever And 'Black Mirror: Bandersnatch'

Netflix
Fionn Whitehead as Stefan Butler in 'Black Mirror: Bandersnatch.'

On Monday, Imagine Dragons played the Halftime Show at the College Football National Championship Game. The reviews were... not great. In fact, the performance has raised the question: Is Imagine Dragons the worst band ever?

And: Black Mirror: Bandersnatch is an interactive, choose-your-own-adventure-style, science fiction, psychological thriller film. It's streaming on Netflix, on some devices, as a standalone movie in the Black Mirror television series. The Nose has seen... a number of different versions of it.
