Final Chapter of 'Stranger Things' Series Mesmerizes Audience Amid Brief Netflix Glitch
The finale drew roughly 137 million viewers since November, but playback glitches and a brief Netflix crash affected many fans trying to watch the episode.
- At 1am UK time on New Year's Day the two-hour Stranger Things finale dropped after fans stayed up all night, and minutes later Netflix crashed with users seeing the error `Something went wrong. Sorry, we’re having trouble with your request.`
- Amid huge demand, the series has amassed roughly 137.1M viewers and the finale was showing in more than 350 theaters, while more than 370,000 fan petitioners demand alleged unseen footage.
- Observers noted both on-screen anomalies and prior platform outages as viewers flagged an Under Armour logo on Nell Fisher’s Holly in episode 7, while Netflix silently fixed an editing mistake and crashed in November.
- Angry viewers vented on social media with messages like `Of course @netflix is glitching and the ep is not even showing?` despite Stranger Things Season 5 remaining available to stream on Netflix after its holiday release.
- Given the series' global audience of roughly 137.1M viewers and screenings in more than 350 theaters, fan petitioners and Netflix's silent edits may prolong debate on streaming reliability and the final cut.
