This episode recaps: The Netflix original TV show Stranger Things’

Anthony & Joe take a

look at the hit TV show ‘Stranger Things’. Approaching the show in a

different way then normal: one of us saw only a few episodes and the

other watched the entire season. This time, its Joe who’s the Pro and Anthony who’s the Noob.

We spend an hour

discussing the themes of Stranger Things, its appeal, the meta narrative

and its relationship to viewers & culture in the real world.

A key question we look at it is: ‘why

now, does Stranger Things work, when other similar shows like Freak and

Geeks (released more than 10 years prior) failed to take off?’
