In 2016, Netflix was the first streaming service to air the first season of the show. 2017 saw the release of the second season, while 2019 kicked off the debut of the third season. Later, in 2022, after a break of three years, the public was finally able to see Stranger Things season 4, and now, once again after a hiatus of three years, the premiere of the fifth and final season has taken place.

Given that there will not be a sixth season of Stranger Things, this is undoubtedly a moment that will evoke strong feelings among the audience of the show.
