‘Stranger Things’ Is Not My Thing But I Am Fond Of It

The new episodes will come out in July and I can’t wait

I’ve watched every episode of the ‘Stranger Things’ series on Netflix… even though it’s not my favorite genre. The truth is that I have grown fond of the characters. Besides the fact that it’s a well-done production.

Until some time ago, if someone had assured me that I would have watched this type of programme, I would not have believed it. I am not particularly passionate about fantasy plots, paranormal elements, and horror moments.

Yet I have seen all the episodes of ‘Stranger Things’. I find that the protagonists are well characterized. There is not a single character that I dislike.

All of this makes the story even more compelling. I also appreciate the settings, the quotes, and the irony of the episodes.

So now I don’t want to change the channel as soon as I see a scene that is too “fantastic” or a paranormal event. It is true, that certain frames of ‘Stranger Things’ touch the horror genre but they do it with style.

I finished watching the seven episodes of the first half of this fourth season in a few days. I know that other new episodes will come out in July. I’m glad about it. It is a beautiful vision that brightens everyone’s long working days.
