After watching the first episode I didn't get this question. The next night I did.
She recognizes most of the source materials and we're both enjoying it so far.
I watched one episode Saturday night with a friend, then the next seven last night. I meant to go to bed after episode 5 because I had to get up for work, buuut I finished it instead. [Reply]
It was merely above average the way it was. The hype is gonna ruin this thing even though I bet they churn out another nice season. Definitely better than most shows and well above remake abortions like mcguyver. [Reply]
Burned through this this weekend with the wife and we both loved it. I was 17 in 1983 and all the nostalgia stuff really resonated with me -- I think only Freaks and Geeks did as good a job of capturing that time. And what's funny is the Duffer Brothers weren't even born yet in 83. [Reply]

Such a shame Freaks only got 1 season. All the shit shows NBC greenlighted and they nope on that :-) [Reply]
