Endings are hard. Just ask Game of Thrones. Years later, the HBO fantasy series is still tarnished with a season 8 brush that washed away years of hard work, meticulous plotting, and – most importantly – the goodwill of fans. The likes of Lost and How I Met Your Mother, too, are casualties of not being able to quite stick the landing after the expectant eyes of the world tuned in for their finales.
Next in the firing line is Stranger Things. The pressure is on, not only because of how staggered the Netflix series has been in releasing new seasons since its debut way back in 2016, but also because of how deeply audiences have fallen in love with the residents of Hawkins.
