It's not always a horror show. The one where the two women in love live happily simulated ever after was really sweet.

But yeah, it's too gratuitously bleak for me. I feel like that's a crutch, a failure of creativity.

I love it too, one of my favorite episodes of TV ever made. That being said, the ending wasn't all rosy. The bank of stored minds was pretty unsettling. The closest to a "good" ending I can recall was "Hang the DJ", the dating episode.
