Netflix to remove Black Mirror Bandersnatch and Kimmy vs. the Reverend interactive specials

eractive specials over the years, the standout has been Bandersnatch. Released in 2018 as part of the Black Mirror series, this interactive film allowed viewers to make decisions that impacted the storyline, leading to a myriad of possible endings. It quickly became a hit with fans, who avidly searched for hidden endings and clues.

In 2020, Netflix introduced another interactive gem with Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy vs. the Reverend. This special episode allowed viewers to step into Kimmy’s shoes as she navigated wedding chaos and faced off against her nemesis, the Reverend. It added a comedic touch to the interactive experience, delighting fans of the beloved sitcom.

However, Netflix has decided to bid farewell to interactive storytelling, with its focus now shifting towards expanding into the gaming world. This change includes launching mobile games, exploring cloud-streamed gaming on TVs, and revamping the TV interface to highlight gaming content.

The removal of Bandersnatch and Kimmy vs. the Reverend means that Netflix will no longer have any active titles under its “Interactive Specials” banner. Previous removals included Ranveer vs. Wild with Bear Grylls and You vs. Wild, although non-interactive versions of the latter are still available on the platform.

Fans who want to relive the thrill of Bandersnatch or guide Kimmy through one last adventure have a limited time to do so before these interactive titles vanish from Netflix for good. So, if you haven’t experienced these gems yet, now is your chance to dive into the world of interactive storytelling before it’s too late.
