They are only two seasons in, so it is a quick watch. Entertaining enough. Will be watching season 3.

Dude, season three dropped today. That’s what I’m talking about..

 

[Dawg_4_lifes]

Starting ep 2. So far so good

 

[hydrodawg]

You started a thread to ask an ambiguous question about a show that has been out for 6 hours? Sorry for the mix up.

 

[Rockydawg]

I got it.

 

[Fogdog]

Dropped a few hours ago? Yeah that's true, but you'd have to have been living under a rock not to hear the hype for the last six months.

 

[Hump4Hoops]

Binged it all today.

Loved it. Tons of great action, and a few unexpectedly effective emotional hooks.

 

[The Fatboy]

5 episodes in. Pretty good.

So yeah, guess I’ve been under a rock cause I’ve got no idea what Stranger Things is about or what channel it is airing on.

Help a brutha out...

It's on Netflix.
The 3rd season just dropped
Start it you won't regret it.

Two episodes into Season 3 and it is off the chain.

 

[Dawgzilla]

I don't get the hype. It's an entertaining show, but not one I consider must see TV. And the child actors are growing up to be ugly. Mike [??, the one dating Eleven] looks like Joey Ramone.

Not real sure why it matters how good looking a 13 year old boy is in relation to the shows significance.

 

[Nunya.sixpack]

Met one of the actors from this in Augusta 2 weeks ago. Great guy.

 

[The Peeper]

Same here, never heard of it

 

[The Fatboy]

If anyone missed the end credits scene you should go back and watch.

 

[Shamoan]

Just finished season 3 and it was awesome. Things are going to be strange (swidt) moving forward if there is a moving forward.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Three episodes into it myself.

Spoiler free:
It's not at all where I thought it was going to go. They did a good job with the trailer of making me think it was going in one direction, but they left enough out. I just hope it ties nicely together. And that if Kali returns, she doesn't have the rest of the gang with her.

 

[00Dawg]

They almost lost me...

When Ultra Magnus rolled by in episode 1. That movie and toy don’t come out until ‘86.
Gotta stay period correct!

At least it wasn’t a Starbucks cup..

 

[JungRebel]

Spoilers, sort of, ahead:

I dunno what's more insane: that we should believe Russians built a 10 billion dollar facility in Indiana without the federal government noticing, or that four kids could wander around it without getting killed.

 

[MSUDawg25]

I’m through 6 episodes. I’d be ok with less 12-year-old dating/relationship drama, but other than that it’s been good. Still one of the better shows out there.

 

[jamdawg96]

Yeah, I had to check myself a few times this season and remember that it's a fantasy show with tons of inspiration and nods to 80s movies that also challenged suspension of disbelief in audiences for the sake of driving absurd yet entertaining plot lines.

 

[JungRebel]

I can forgive a lot of absurdity if entertainment is the end result. All three seasons have been very entertaining.

 

[jack daniels dog]

Spent day in chair since I tricked my back earlier so binge watched season 1. Was on my seat edge most of the time and completely ready for season 2. May start it later after kids go to bed.

 

[Len2003]

I'm on episode 6. I like it a lot, but it's very different from the first season. I didn't love the second season. The first season is the best.

 

[archdog]

Finished it day 2. pretty dang good.

 

[Len2003]

Just finished it, and I loved it. Season 3 is the show evolving. Season 1 stands alone and is what it is. Season 2 was a bit of a knock off of Season 1, which I think is why I didn't like Season 2 as much. You can't make another Season 1.

The Steve and Dustin storyline was my favorite. Winona Ryder is terrible as Joyce. She's by far the worst character in the show.

I figured she would have stolen the show.

 

[bulldognation]

Don't you mean shoplifted the show?

 

[PineGroveBully]

Shoplifting is stealing is it not? Nobody shoplifts a show. I didn't add** bc I figured that one was obvious.

 

[The Fatboy]

Winona Ryder can still make the ole slacks tighten up.

 

[Rockydawg]

Perfect summary.

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

It's one of the best shows ever. Especially if you lived in the 80's and appreciate nostalgia.

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

Really? I don't think she is very attractive at all.

 

[PineGroveBully]

She was kinda hot in Beetlejuice

 

[PBRME]

Mrs Wheeler is where it’s at.

 

[Hump4Hoops]

Every scene with Billy and Mrs. Wheeler is a gem.

 

[DancingRabbit]

Back in the day she was beautiful. And low-key stacked.

The first and only thing that popped in my mind to your Beetlejuice-Winona look:
