Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSean Astin (Bob Newby) actually returned to the Atlanta set to shoot his brief scene with Winona Ryder (Joyce Byers). In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Stranger Things co-creator Matt Duffer said: "He flew in for one day to shoot that scene with Winona. We had talked about, like, we can just flash back to them dancing or whatever, but we really thought it would hit a little bit harder if it was a new moment between the two of them. That was hard, too, just having Sean back for one day. Winona and Sean are especially close. It just made everybody miss him that much more."
- GoofsThe phone call received at the newspaper office is incorrectly indicated by a lit red button. For this series of office phones, the red button is actually the hold button. Instead, one of the five clear buttons should have been blinking indicating an incoming call, and could not have been answered by merely picking up the receiver without that button being in the pressed-down position.

Featured review
STRANGER THINGS IS BACK
Okay so, one of the biggest shows in recent memory and definitely the biggest Netflix original ST is back. What was the first episode like tho ? Pretty good i gotta say. I hate the fact that people suddenly become experts in reviewing tv shows and all that but I still respect everyone's opinion. The first epi was strong and undoubtedly a good start. The ST feel is still there, the cool '80s vibe and the soundtracks and the atmosphere and the clothes and all the usual stuff basically. The script seemed fine to me and specifically that first scene with the russians and the lab was very good and impressive to say the least. This season sounded promising on paper, looked even more promising in the trailers and is already delivering. Again, great start for a great show.
