Considering the significant hype surrounding “Stranger Things” season 5, which, if you somehow didn’t know, marks the grand finale of the juggernaut sci-fi streaming series, it was no shock to see it rocket instantly to No. 1 in Netflix’s top 10 over the New Year’s period.
The popular show’s final episode debuted on Netflix on December 31, and was such a big deal that the big red streaming service even held theatrical screenings of the feature-length conclusion. It’s no surprise that the internet has been abuzz with reactions ever since, but what is a little more unexpected is how swiftly “Stranger Things” has been booted from the Netflix top spot in the platform's most-watched list.
