Watched this on a binge yesterday while it rained outside. Once I made it past the first episode, I liked it.
Ryder has always been hit or miss. To see her at her worst, check out Heathers (Lick it up, baby. Lick. It. Up.). She's come a long way but her presence is always really forced and unnatural. I thought she was OK in Stranger Things.
I wonder where 011 came from. Are there 10 others that came before her, and, if so, where are they? Did I miss something about that?
I love seeing this thread bumped every few weeks by a person who just recently watched ST and say they loved it.
Agreed, the synth music was really good!
My wife and I just started watching it last week. We are hooked ! Just finished episode 4 last night. How can this series go wrong ?! When was the last time one heard Joy Division, Peter Gabriel, and the Clash in a TV series ! This show reminds me of a mash up of Steven King, Dean Koontz and ET.

I don't think anything was mentioned, but if I were to speculate there may have been a previous ten "experiments" who didn't make it, and she's their success story.

Agreed. Seriously, I've never been so nostalgic in my entire life. Watching this show felt like looking through a window of myself as a kid in the 80s.
OK, I'm 2 episodes in and not quite feeling the love for this. I'm just not connecting the dots here. Does the plot get any better going forward? I should mention I have the attention span of a circus monkey.

You sound like me when I watched this season. I finished it, but I will not watch the second season.
