A "teen" version of X-Files?

Very engaging and well-written series. Unlike X-Files, the story line is ongoing rather than a different storyline each week (like X-Files was), thus maintaining a continuity of characters and plot. The twists and turns and unexpected reveals are what keep things at a heightened level. Special effects are, in some cases, mindboggling but effective--and rarely detract from the storyline. I've ordered Season 2 and can hardly wait for it to arrive to see what happens next!Read full review...

Not as Good as I Expected

The main characters were middle school age. The adults were incidental to the story. The monsters were few and far between. The ending was incomplete.

I guess that the rest of the resolution will be in season 2. I'll pass.Read full review...

Best Christmas present ever

This show is so good, and they made it even better with this presentation. You couldn't have asked for a better way to get fully nostalgic with this format. I hope they release a special edition for season 2, as well. Read full review...

Strange that it is so Good

Like most I loved the "retro" VHS packaging on this Blu-ray. But what was better was that the center piece that holds the disc was not that cheap plastic that always breaks, it was a felt-like disc, so no scratching of your discs either as you try to put them back. The only negative, like most have already said, was that you had to sit through the several minutes long preview and some other thing without the ability to skip past it. Believe me I tried all the options to no avail.

Otherwise like everybody else, I am loving the series. The cliff hangers are really that--you almost always have to move on to the next episode---I see why people binge watch this, because you can't get away.

The name certainly lives up to the title

I like oddball, interesting (that is to say quirky) entertainment. This series certainly fits the bill. My son told me about it.He has BluRay and I have DVD so told him I would buy the combo set and give him the BluRay but I kept the box. Read full review...

Reminds me of the "Harry Potter" film series on a TV budget.

I was amazed at the depth of the emotions I felt while watching it (I hated the predatory Romeo!). That led me to stop viewing it to regroup my feelings. The next day I got back into it and didn't stop watching "Stranger Things, Season 1" until the end of Chapter 8. I then ordered Season 2!Read full review...

Great deal, great show!

The market dictates that these end up super cheap right now, and I got it to see if Netflix shows are of a high enough quality to subscribe. Well, it convinced me to subscribe! Stranger Things is so far an outstanding show. The VHS packaging is really cool, and the poster is cool enough, but not really my thing. For 5 dollars, this was an excellent preview of an excellent streaming service.Read full review...

Great Show, Clever Boxset Design

Great show!! The way they designed this set was very interesting and smart. Making it look like an old VHS tape is a throwback to the 80s, much like the show itself. I also loved the poster and cover art. Being a big fan, I just had to buy this! I’m so glad that I did. If you love the show, you will for sure want one of these box sets. It’s worth it!!
