UPDATE - July 7, 2019 Below was my original review. I gave it two stars. I decided to watch the next episode. I'm so glad I did. It got really good. I binged watched the rest. That said. Here's the thing. Winona Ryder deserves an Academy Award. Her acting is incrediable!

What I don't like is that it's so drawn out. The first few episodes you have to just sit there waiting...for the last few episodes where it gets good. I get you want to give the story about the characters. But it's way to boring and drawn out. I use the fast forward button on my Roku a lot to skip over a lot of the parts.

The problem is that I most likely won't ever re-watch the season's again because it's so drawn out (boring) in many of the episodes :/

I've tried watching it twice. Finally, yesterday, the 4th of July, I pushed passed the first ten minutes. You have to gain my attention within the first 20 minutes or I pass on the show. I made it through the 1st episode. Luckily, I was bored and was playing on my phone. I kept letting the episodes auto play. Then I started on a new book I'm writing. Still on auto-play. It was untill epsiode 6 that it caught my attention. But, still wasn't hooked. It wasn't until episode 7. Then I put the phone down. It got exciting. Watched episode seven and eight. Instead of turning off the TV after finally making it through season1 I wanted to watch season 2.

Then it happen. Once again. It got borring. So drawn out. OMG, just get to it. I'm on episode 4 now. Just ended with season 3 and turned off the TV. It's to boring and drawn out. Get to it!

Tonight, forget it. I rather take my time and watch Star Trek Disocery season 2 again. Now, that show is awesome! Keeps you plugged in. Keeps you wanting to know what happens next.

My final thoughts on Strager Things is summed up in one word: Yawn!
