This winter, more than three years since the season four finale, the final episodes of Stranger Things<\/a><\/em> will finally release. It would be an understatement to say that the show’s ending is a cultural event, as fan posts are already filling the internet and merchandise is flooding stores. Yet, despite all the excitement building up around the show, Netflix<\/a> is convinced that you should watch it alone, on a device and an account that is only shared by members of your household.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a Varie<\/em><\/a>ty<\/em> profile<\/a> about the show’s creators Matt and Ross Duffer, the idea of airing some season five episodes in the theater comes up, only for Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria to dismiss it. “A lot of people \u2014 a lot, a lot, a lot of people \u2014 have watched Stranger Things<\/em> on Netflix,\u201d she responded. “It has not suffered from lack of conversation or community or sharing or fandom. I think releasing it on Netflix is giving the fans what they want.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\r\n\n\t\t
