Stranger Things: Episodes 1 & 2

Like Euphoria last night, this strikes me as good TV. Stranger Things spins a nice tone that converts its copious cliches from tedious to cozy. The plot intrigues me -- hence episode 2 -- although it would have to get very cerebral or philosophical to justify the time, and I'm skeptical it would, considering the broad audience it's harvesting here.

I bet I'd like both series I started this week, each a youthful escape. Neither suggested the level of joy or intrigue I'd demand.
