Stranger Things

Stranger Things is the most-watched series in Netflix history, with a 93% Rotten Tomatoes score and over 1.4 billion hours streamed globally. The Duffer Brothers' 80s-soaked supernatural phenomenon introduced Millie Bobby Brown and revived Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" for a new generation, earning 12 Emmy nominations for its fourth season. Its cultural impact outperforms The Crown in audience engagement, as the nostalgia machine blends sci-fi horror with coming-of-age drama more effectively than typical period revival shows.
