Yeah, believe the hype on this one, folks. Here we have yet another Netflix Original that came out of nowhere to immense praise which deserves all the accolades that it receives. I love me some retro 1980s-style stuff, so Stranger Things is a godsend in my eyes - it's set in the 80s, and is clearly inspired by the films of John Carpenter and Steven Spielberg, with elements of Stephen King stories to boot. The score is beautiful synth, and it's extremely atmospheric and effective. The horror elements do work, but the story is grounded in terrific character drama which elevates the material, and it helps that it's possible to become so firmly invested in these goings-on and care about the characters. Stranger Things is quality television, and I'm most definitely interested in another season!
