There’s some really good work in this department with some excellent acting and performances all round. With only 8 episodes, there’s a definite sense of urgency throughout a desire to move the plot along and focus on the character dynamics at play. There’s obvious inspiration taken from X-Files, the Goonies, Stephen King and the charm of Steven Spielberg which is evident throughout, blended together and delivered in such a way that makes Stranger Things stand alone as a solid show on its own merit. When young Will Byers ( Noah Schnapp) goes missing under mysterious circumstances, strange occurrences begin happening around the town whilst the ongoing investigation into Will’s disappearance takes place. The show manages to balance several groups of main characters and flesh them out with enough detail to make them realistic and more importantly, help us care about them through the 8 episodes. The first season of Stranger Things is quite simply brilliant its unique blend of intricate character development and smart writing make it one of the stand out shows from 2016.
