It really is---as far as the "name" stars go, Modine phones it in and Ryder chews up the scenery something terrible, but the kids are the stars here and they're amazing. Think Super 8. It's all got a Stephen King sort of feel to it and it's a great watch.

The intro to the show is such a nostalgic piece of art. I swear they threw in extra film dust that got into my eye.
Awesome show! Watched the whole season. Marco Polo season 2 here I come.
You're going to LOVE it. Gods, they hit it out of the park on that one. Incredible.

There is a season 2 out now!?Done watching season 2, this show is great but I expected something a bit more over the top for Ahmad...

Edit : I think you may be talking about Marco Polo not Stranger Things.
Did you catch the reference to MK Ultra? Google it if not. Very funny piece of real history.I got a kick out of all of the posters in the kids' rooms - Evil Dead, Dark Crystal, etc. Fun attention to detail that really makes the show tribute to that era. Big fan of the soundtrack too. Any show that uses Joy Division and the Clash will get immediate love from me.
