I just wrapped up season 1 of Stranger Things and wow, Netflix does it again. Here’s everything I loved about this series.
Casting
The casting of this show was perfect. From Finn Wolfhard, Millie Bobby Brown to Winona Ryder, everyone brought their A-Game.
Score
With Stranger Things taking place in the early 1980s, the opening credits has a nostalgic look and sound. The score throughout reminds me of Tron: Legacy (which was one of the greatest scores ever).
Story Line
The storyline is also a highlight of this show. I’m happy that the show runners started this season with 8 episodes, versus stretching it to 10. The pacing this season is perfect and I don’t remember it dragging at all.
Overall feel
The props, set pieces, and wardrobe really makes you feel like this is taking place in the 80s.
Major props to the Duffer Bros. and everyone involved in this show!
Now that the season 1 is over, Stranger Things Season 2 is set to premiere in 2017 and will take place in the Fall of 1984. Below is some theories about season 2 and more. What’s your favorite things about Stranger Things? Tell me on Twitter @VinceValholla
