It should come as no surprise to anyone by now, but Stranger Things is a massive hit.
While Netflix would never, ever release streaming stats around individual programs (heavens forfend!), all indications are viewers love the 80s-themed supernatural adventure series.
Over the past two seasons, fans have feverishly embraced the kids
and adults of Hawkins, Indiana, a small town where spooky things happen — methinks it has something to do with the portal to a different dimension.
But more than a showcase on the things that go bump in the night, Stranger Things have won over hearts for its nostalgic and spot-on portrayal of the flush of teen crushes and the enduring bonds of friendship. All together now, "awwww".
With a bona fide commercial and critical hit on its hand, Netflix has confirmed the series has been renewed for a third season. Though don't expect it to land on the service anytime soon — it was a 15-month break between the first and second instalments.
