This article is written about how popular the hit show Stranger Things is right now all over the world. Stranger Things recently released the fourth season to their show and is hitting record breaking viewing number. For example, the season broke the viewing record for biggest debut weekend for a Netflix series along with other records. Also compared to Netflix originals in the first 28 days of streaming, Stranger Things season four is second behind Squid Games. We are informed that this season of Stranger Things is doing extremely well, while still having a chance to grow more. They originally released seven episodes of the show and got lots of views on those episodes, then they released two more episodes and it boosted it even more.

After analyzing the article I gather that the fourth season of Stranger Things has exceeded all expectation and is doing extremely well with ranking. It talks all about records it has broke and records it could break, so from the naked eye the show is flawless. The article makes sure the emphasize that is many different ways and it is drawing in each reader by explaining all the accolades the show has. This is a very good news story for Netflix and producers of Stranger Things because this gives the show and steaming service more publicity than it already has.

The thing that this article isn’t telling us is the quality of show. It has informed us about all the records, streaming views, and all the hours people have watched. But, it doesn’t say anything about reviews it has gotten, and I think that is key when breaking down a show. The title of the article states how the show has passed the billion-hour viewing mark which might make sense to why it doesn’t have anything in there about how good the show really is. It is very possible that the season could not be that good, but still have lots of hours and views. They should have included something about critics loving the new season and how great it was, but they included none of that. Ultimately, the article could have contained more information to really give a sneak peak inside the show and tell people if it is worth a watch. These numbers seem to be a bit misleading, and people want to know if this show is legit.
