If you have a Netflix account, then you’ve probably heard of a little show called “Stranger Things”. If you’ve watched it, you know the feeling of binge-watching eight episodes in a row and then not knowing what to do with your life afterwards.
Here are a few reasons you should rewatch Stranger Things:
*SPOILERS AHEAD*

You can kinda tell.

Portraying a mother who’s child has disappeared is one thing, but portraying a mother who’s child has disappeared into an alternate dimension and talks to you through lights is a much more challenging role. We’ve always known she was amazing, but this one really took the cake.
You’ll realize that Jonathan Byers (Charlie Heaton) looks like a young, blonde Norman Reedus.
I had to include pictures of this phenomenon, or should I say, stranger thing:

You’ll reanalyze why everyone is going crazy over Barb? (Like why, though?)

She had like four lines. OK, she was a good friend, but come on.
There’s more time to ask the real questions: How did Will not die in the upside down? Is the monster actually dead? Why Eggos?

These are the questions that keep me up at night.
You’ll notice all of the homages to the ’80s films that inspired it
With films such as “E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial”, “Alien” and “The Goonies,” “Stranger Things” has so many references that it’s difficult to keep track! Don’t worry, here’s a guide to help you along!
So if you have some extra time left this summer, be sure to rewatch what might be the greatest Netflix show ever!
