The great thing about shows releasing episodes weekly is the hype it builds. The downside is once you’re obsessed, you do nothing but think about that show for two months straight, with the hyperfixation feeling like Pennywise himself is juggling your thoughts. Yes, if you couldn’t tell already, I absolutely love “It: Welcome to Derry.”
Ever since the first episode dropped, I knew this show was my favorite of 2025, if not the best show in recent years. Saying that as a hardcore “Alien” fan who thought “Alien: Earth” would be my No. 1 is genuinely shocking, but “Welcome to Derry” exceeded my expectations in every way. Now that season 1 has ended and the finale is streaming on HBO Max, I’m even more impressed (and even more obsessed).
