They say Netflix has lost a ton of money, Stranger Things S4 has shattered viewership records. I watched two episodes, it is outstanding...fuck Howard Stern.

Apologies forthcoming for hijaking this thread.

I haven't watched the episode yet, E4 of Stanger Things features Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill, now No. 1 on both iTunes and Spotify. It's shot up to 50+ million views on YT.

Gen Z shocked by hearing real music.

I'll probably watch E4 by the end of the day. The show has pivoted to Max played by the gorgeous Sadie Sink, I can see the correlation between her and Kate Bush.

Millie Bobby Brown's Hot Ones episode posted yesterday.

I have actually never watched the show. I thought it was more for kids. It is not about a bunch of kids????
Yes and no, Winona Ryder and David (The Big Coocozz) Harbour are the glue that holds the show together.

Why is Stranger Things so successful? It sits on the fence between suspense and horror and dips it's toes into both.

The Big Coocozz has his own personal horror!

I'm not sold yet, though only a few episodes in.
This season is a bit more straight horror and less creepy cool, but I'll still keep watching.

The episodes are long and I'm still streaming Lucifer, which is very tasty satire. Tom Ellis plays him as a consummate Casanova, he does push the envelope. However since God is manipulating the narrative he should make an appearance.

Think of it as an 80's throwback to things like E.T., Poltergeist and other properties from that era.

I recently watched Dangerous Liaisons again, Uma Thurman looked just like her daughter at 22. Wasn't sure about Stranger Things at first. Howard Stern jumped the whale when he made a running skit about being Millie Bobby Brown's manager. Also I wasn't sure if Maya Hawke could act, she was in two episodes of The Good Lord Bird, she was a breath of spring air amidst the melodrama.

Best satire I watched recently was Severance, which I think is only on apple tv
Patricia Arquette went full method for Escape at Dannemorra, she hit the cinnamon rolls hard. That's an extreme amount of weight to lose!

The writing on Stranger Things is very clever, they inject just enough comedy to break the tension. Otherwise the series would become exhaustive. With a lil bit of Tommy Chong, they feature a song I've always loved.
