Like most people on the planet, my newest obsession is the Netflix show “Stranger Things."
I binge-watched both seasons in four days and I have no shame about it. I love everything about the show, (except season 2, episode 7 *insert eye roll here*). It’s scary, funny, suspenseful and fascinating. There's a little something for everyone including 80's nostalgia, conspiracy theory fuel, budding romances, high stakes, middle school drama, and goonies-esque adventures.
Since we can’t visit Hawkins, fight Demogorgons and babysit with Steve Harrington, here are the best and most famous lines from both seasons of “Stranger Things”.
