OK, so, hear me out:

Stranger Things always features songs that were popular at the time the story is taking place

and it starts in 1983, but the story has reached 1987

and it’s the final season

and they’ll have to feature one extra-notable contemporaneous song in the end credits of the final episode…

…and so…what if Stranger Things — •the entire series• — is a giant Rickroll??

That would be so epic. But if they do, I sure hope they have Rick Astley make a cameo.

As everyone’s favorite character is taken for all eternity in to the grasp of the mind flayer. Tracks for me.

Kind of felt like some sort of prank when they did an entire season of Joyce and Hopper bickering when they really just wanted to kiss. Haven't been able to bring myself to watch more since sitting through that.

@grimacing @inthehands I would watch a condensed version of Stranger Things, made as if it wasn’t drawn out to fill a TV season

Yeah... Like a short internet video recap of the episode with all the spoilers put in. lol.

This sounds like perfect fodder for the 'prediction market'.

@inthehands and, if they don’t do it, there must be some talented person here that can do an epic edit and make it for us. #RickRoll #GenX

@inthehands Would this qualify as the Final Countdown (released in '86 but charted in '87)?

@inthehands I'm still expecting an after credits scene where the adults are sitting around a table with D&D going "same time next week?".

@inthehands

you don't think they would use the Star Trekkin song

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Trekkin%27
