Stranger Things season 5's premiere clocked in as the biggest premiere week ever for an English-language show (Korean-language thriller Squid Game season 3 drew 60.1 million views in its first three days of streaming earlier this year). Stranger Things season 4 finished its run with 140.7 million views, so it remains to be seen if season 5 can beat it. In our Stranger Things season 5, part 1 review , we gave the show four stars, with our verdict reading: "After a three-year wait, Volume 1 of the fifth and final season of Stranger Things doesn't disappoint, with blockbuster set-pieces, riveting twists, heartbreaking performances, and a cliffhanger that will make you wish it was Christmas Day already. Roll on Volume 2." You can keep up to date with our Stranger Things season 5 release schedule , or catch up on what's already happened with our Stranger Things season 5, part 1 ending explained .
