      CNN started the 24 hour news cycle in 1978. But then again, not that many people had cable back then. Most people had antennas back then, it would be another 10-15 years before most people were hooked up to cable. And I remember the local TV stations went off the air after midnight.

      Yeah, Too many films/shows think the second it hit the 80s that everyone went out and got a new late 80s style home and wardrobe. My 80s childhood was mostly held over 70s decor and hand me downs. This show really captures that vibe. My working class, single income home was very similar to the Byres' home.

    They're so young to be biking alone at night? I was their age in the 80s. Back then pretty much all kids that age rode their bikes all over the place during the day or night with no supervision. We just generally spent a lot more time going out and running around on our own back then than kids do these days. That's one of many things about the 80s that Stranger Things captures so well!

    Riding a bike alone in small town Indiana was a normal thing. I grew up in the early-mid 90's in a small Indiana town and was on my bike all day every day in the summer. Me and my friends would ride 7 miles to the next biggest city and ride around.

    I was 9 in 1984 and in a NY suburb and yes I can assure you we all rode our bikes alone everywhere. Even after dark. Of course we also never had car seats in cars and were more likely to be sitting together with no belts or anything else in the back seat or the “way back” of a station wagon. It was normal then.
    The Duffer brothers definitely did a great job capturing the era’s clothes, attitudes, lingo etc (and the eras horror movie tropes - including Winona Rider!).

    Cell phones have really changed the horror genre! What we're once totally inescapable situations can suddenly be overcome by a character simply pulling out their phone. It's interesting that here, the writers were able to retain the feeling of independence... and sometimes desperate isolation, that existed in life before cell phones, by setting the story in the eighties -while, at the same time, still allowing instant communication between some of the characters with the walkie-talkies.

  • @michaelgonzalez6295
    @michaelgonzalez6295 Před měsícem +1

    This show can best be compared to combining the Harry Potter movies, "It: Chapter One" and "The Goonies" and make it a TV show. There is a "strange thing", teens use kid logic to solve it (like analyzing behavior IRL from how they play games, eample in 16:08) and hopefully not die. Death in this show is real. And it is great because we watch the "survivors" grow up over the course of the seasons remembering their mistakes and lessons.

    I think you're going to love the series. Whoever told you it's a "kids show" is nuts, but it is that kind of young people in peril thing of classic horror with calls back to classic 80's kids movies like the Goonies and E.T. It gets scary, from time to time, but nothing all that much worse that what you've seen in the first episode (though there are some moments of gore later on).

    Not even a minute into the video and I love the reaction; I guess that Mary might be referring to somebody else as lots of people claim this was for kids... usually people who never watched it and claim that the main cast were mostly kids (there are actually enough adults on the main cast list to even that out even if we ignore the actress and actor for Nancy and Jonathan just because they play teens) or simply kids who watch this without adult supervision...
    and about that adventure part... as I am already directing this at your editor, Mary, this contains spoilers
    the kids' story arc is indeed an adventure movie; but what people like a lot about this first part of ST is that each arc has a different genre to it; Joyce' family drama turns into Poltergeist like haunted house, Hopper's procedural crime turns into a conspiracy thriller; and the teenage drama of Nancy and Jonathan turns into them sleuthing their way through a mystery and the actual monster movie bit; whicht is why the later parts do not work for some;

    Not a "kids" show, though reasonably safe for teens. It's clearly aimed at people who grew up in the 80's, that's when you're going to get most value out of it IMO. The kids would be maybe 10 years older than me, but I totally recognise the world. I remember I saw the trailer for s2 having never heard of it before and I thought it was a movie, I'm a sucker for production values and ST has production values by the truckload.
