DirecTV, Christmas, 9:30-11 p.m.

Also on Netflix Instant

This British import is a contemporary Twilight Zone, mostly focused on the dark, dark possibilities of over-reliance on technology. Each episode is creepy and perfectly plotted and a little unnerving and stars someone pretty great. The first has Rory Kinnear as the British prime minister forced to do something hilariously awful in order to save a princess from media savvy kidnappers. The newest episode has Jon Hamm trapped in a remote cabin swapping creepy stories at Christmas.
