I am late to the party with Black Mirror. For those that have seen it is it worth watching and if so should I start with season 1?

I find Black Mirror to present genuinely life changing ideas that can shock you and challenge your thinking in a way that is unusual to see in any medium these days, I HIGHLY recommend. Each episode is like a mini TV movie with almost no relationship between other episodes (except occasional easter eggs), so you don't actually need to start from Season 1 and in fact I would not recommend it. You will also see that the production quality has changed over time as budget has increased. 

I would personally watch in this order:

* Season 3
* Season 4
* Season 2
* Season 1
* The TV special Bandersnatch
