Starting to watch season 2. Love it, kids and scary stuff, makes me feel young again. Nice diversion from all the real world junk. :smileyhappy:
No computers or cell phones either.......oh wait no satellite internet either which I'm using to watch it. Still, brings back memories even though 20+ years after my middle school years. Close enough compared to today's world.
Oh **bleep** a Ford Pinto.......lol.
Call me uninformed, but I had never heard of "Stranger Things" until yesterday. First saw it in the preview for ET after the evening news yesterday, then I saw it mentioned on another show, then I saw it mentioned on a news ticker that one of the actors had been denied entry into the US due to a residue of "a drug" found in his luggage.
Never hearing of it, then three times since yesterday. SMH. Looks like an interesting show, though.
MarkJFine I remember those trailers! That's going back a while. :p

The second season dropped on Netflix on Friday, so everyone was talking about it. I'm sure things will quiet down after a while, until it's time for S3. :)
Binge watched the whole series yesterday. Great stuff, though not as good (imo) as S1. Love all the 80s references. And Paul Reiser. And Sean Astin.
Netflix + Hughesnet -- fantastic. No problems with the VDS speed -- Stranger Things looked great on a large TV. Netflix always delivers good quality images, even with VDS turned on.
NBC streaming app + Hughesnet -- forking bad. Watching The Good Place is very frustrating because, I suppose, NBC doesn't like latency. I've tried casting from their website as opposed to the app, but there's no difference. I have tried disabling VDS and it's the same story, so I'm blaming NBC. Boo on you, NBC.
I think I will stick to the new StarTrek Discovery and Orville >.>
