Nosedive is the first episode of Black Mirror series three, released on Netflix in 2016 and starring Bryce Dallas Howard as Lacie Pound. In its world, every social interaction is rated from one to five stars on phones, and those scores decide jobs, homes and status. The pleasant five star chime became a shorthand online for performative approval and social validation, shared in edits and memes that mock rating culture, review scores and the need to be liked by everyone.
