Wife found this today, evidently it just appeared today.
We've watched the first three. It reminds me a lot of Black Mirror except the stories are not nearly so dark and the characters are all in the same town with some characters overlapping. I'm enjoying it, my wife still thinks they are too dark (Black Mirror gave her nightmares believe it or not). What say ye?

You beat me to the announcement, 83v45magna. I saw a blurb about it on Amazon earlier today and decided to check it out after dinner. I'm currently midway through episode 2.
My first reaction was a lot like yours: another "Tales of the Unnatural" sort of series. Black Mirror, Dispatches From Elsewhere, etc.
In fact, it's much like Dispatches From Elsewhere in that the setting and main characters (so far) are constant. The stories are different, but they all have a bit of "Stranger Things" feel to them.

My thoughts exactly - similar to Black Mirror but not as edgy. (Black Mirror was a bit too dark for me.) Possibly a cross between that and Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams, but set in Stranger Things timeframe. I'm on episode 4, liking it so far.

Ep 2 Transpose was the most mind bending to me. Especially with the reversal being taken away with the dismantling of the sea mine, and the last swap attempt, which seemed to be successful with the final scene.

I have now watched the entire series, and I think I will watch it again. It's very subtle at times, and the interweaving of plot lines begins to make sense towards the end. I tend to multitask while the TV is on; this series actually requires some paying attention to.
