    • Trivia
      Steve Perry, former lead vocalist for Journey, has said that the Stranger Things season 4 remix of Journey's 1980s smash hit Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) was done pretty much the way he originally wanted it done in the 1980s, but lacked the technology. Steve was so impressed that he even helped with the development of the remix.

      The maple syrup bottles did not have flip-top caps in the 1980s.

    • Crazy credits
      The Stranger Things opening titles and fonts mimic the film grain and look of 1980's television series opening credits.

    1 of the greatest shows I've ever seen
    What an amazing series. The story, the characters and everything was great picking by the team in the hiring process. This series is unlike any other, although it may resemble some of your favourite movies in the 80's as the series pays homage to E. T, Stand By Me, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween and plenty more.

    I have made my friends watch as well as my family and no one had been disappointed with what I have introduced them to.

    Season 1-4

    This series has so many different feels when watching from nostalgic value of personal interest to imagining the great times of the 80's. The monsters and the upside down dimension is so cool, how they have created this other world and all these creatures coming from within. The story is solid with great characters, the excitement kicks off straight away which the show captures you straight away into the world of the upside-down. The seasons get better as the show takes you along and at the end of every season, you are always left wondering what just happened and already coming up with plans how the story will progress from there. That's 1 of the great things about this show, it always leaves you thinking and completely glued to the tv as things start to develop. Me and my mates will watch it and be surprised or shocked to the fact that you have no words and be sitting there for 5 -10 minutes taking this all in. I love this show because when a series makes you completely lose your mind, then it gives you chills and not many series can do that for me.

    Definitely recommend to anyone to who has not seen Stranger Things or thinking about watching it.

    • What timeline does this show take place?
    • Does each Season 'resolve' at the end? Or is there a cliff-hanger such that you have to progress to the next season, presenting more of one continuous story?
    • Why does Dustin have teeth in season 2 but not in season 3?
