Stranger Things (or yet another brilliant TV show you need to watch)

Stranger Things or yet another brilliant TV show you need to watch



As we know the USA is responsible for many legendary TV shows. Nowadays, this form of entertainment has become so popular, that there are countless numbers of new TV series coming out every year. However, there are some which stand out from the rest with its originality and perfectly written plot.

Stranger Things, a Netflix original series is definitely one of them. Set in the glorious 80's,  it tells a mysterious story of four boys, who spend their evenings playing games, excited about such stories like "The Lord of the Rings". One night one of the friends vanishes into thin air and there is no easy way to find out what has happened to him. Throughout the whole season, we learn about the mysteries and phenomena, which take place among many different and vivid characters.




So, here are some advantages of Stranger Things, which are worth mentioning:

1. The incredibly well-created sense of mystery, which is so exciting and thrilling that you cannot stop yourself from watching it!

2. The cast is really talented and authentic in their roles. The kids are truly awesome - they are authentic and natural, which is a huge achievement considering their age. One one the popular actors is Winona Ryder, who plays the mother of one of the boys.

3. Incredible music - if you are tired with the modern sounds, you won't be disappointed! Because of the fact that the plot is set in the 80's, you can prepare for some legendary golden oldies, deeply poetic lyrics and extraordinary sounds!

4. This particular TV show has only 8 episodes - this might be surprising, but in fact, it has a great effect. The plot isn't stretched on purpose, we NEVER get bored. Every single episode seems to be well-thought and filled with wonderful details, which create its unique hypnotizing atmosphere. Right from the moment when the opening credits show up, you will not be able to quit watching the show without reaching the end.

5. There are also some famous references to the motifs that the majority of fantasy or science fiction fans adore.  I won't get into details - in order not to spoil it - but be ready for some mind-blowing theories and epic scenes.

These are only some of the reasons why this show became one of the most exceptional ones in the USA and beyond. And if you happen to watch the whole show and then you start to feel this huge hole inside because "It's over" - don't worry! The second season is planned for January ;)
