The first four episodes of ‘Stranger Things’ Season 5 are out on Netflix now. This piece discusses details from the show; if you’d rather avoid those, come back after you’ve watched.
There is a certain kind of magic to a show like Stranger Things, which somehow manages to re-engage fans with every new season — despite a sense it is often telling the same story, over and over again.
After more than three years away, Netflix has turned its final season into its holiday gift to the world, releasing four episodes on Nov. 26, three on Christmas Day and the series finale on New Year’s Eve. Still, whether this truly feels like a holiday present may depend on how eager viewers are to dive into yet another adventure hanging the world’s fate on a bunch of teenagers from small town Indiana.
