As mentioned, over half of season six takes place in the past. This pushes the show to expand beyond those Black Mirror “fear the future” themes that’ve become the show’s trademark—and dig into more vintage technology than the show usually deploys. “Loch Henry” makes great use of VHS tapes, but “Mazey Day” also has an effective montage that captures just how tedious internet searches could be back in the old dial-up days.
