Stranger Things

 When Meg came home at the end of the spring semester she started rewatching one of her favorite Netflix series, Stranger Things.  She loved the sci-fi thriller set in the 1980s and encouraged Cameron to watch it.  The show centered around a group of nerdy middle schoolers and Meg thought that Cameron might relate to some of the scenarios.  Cam decided to give it a try and I thought I'd join them as I enjoy watching the same television series that my children do.  Although Cameron didn't agree with Meg at first that his group of friends were similar to Mike, Will, Lucas and Dustin, he did like the sci fi nature to the show.  The second season was probably our least favorite of the three and the haircuts were atrocious, but we still enjoyed it very much.  

Tonight we watched the last episode of season three.  We decided that it would be the perfect time to bring up the big screen and projector and watch it outside.  It was a lot of fun.  The big screen made the scenes with the mind flayer even more intense.  There were some sad moments to the episode especially when one of the teenagers dies.  He wasn't likable, but it was still sad.  We were mad for awhile as it looked like one of our favorite character died in the upside down.  Thankfully, the last scene gave us hope that he was actually being housed in a Russian prison instead.  Overall, the series was fantastic and we can't wait for season four to come out.
