You’ve heard of Netflix and chill; now it’s time to Netflix and choose your own adventure. The streaming service is reportedly adding an interactive element to a crop of new specials that will allow the viewer to influence the outcome of certain storylines, anonymous sources at the company told Bloomberg. An episode of the award-winning “Black Mirror” will feature “live-action interactive programming” in the show’s fifth season, which is expected to debut sometime in December, Bloomberg says. “We are putting viewers in the driver’s seat,” Netflix’s director of product innovation, Carla Engelbrecht Fisher, told Variety last year. Applying the same structure to its adult content is more challenging, given the greater complexity of scenarios, but Netflix reportedly plans to debut these specials by the end of the year.
