Tomorrow is My Sunday. I have a few pakidges waiting in a parcel locker, so I'll pick those up ASAP and get food at some point, but other than that my only real plans for the day are to laugh about Stranger Things.
Season five is hot garbage, and the finale in particular is so disappointing that a lot of people were/are convinced that Netflix and/or The Duffer Brothers had posted hints that it's actually fake and they will be releasing another episode, or even another entire season. For whatever reason they were convinced it was going to happen on 1/7, and when it didn't they decided it must be happening on 7/1 instead because, you know, that's 1/7 "upside down."
Allegedly one of the brothers has an ex-wife (Leigh Janiak, who wrote the Fear Street movies . . . which happened to feature two Stranger Things stars) who was an uncredited ghostwriter, and with her gone the writing went to crap. I don't know if that's true, but it's one explanation that makes sense.
Whenever the brothers have interviews about the finale and people ask the most basic obvious questions, their answers always boil down to "We don't know" or "We don't care" or "We decided not to show that on camera or mention it at any point."
At least one spin-off is definitely happening, but it's hilarious to pretend that anyone fucking cares anymore.
