^^^^This is why i didn’t enjoy the show.
The screenplay, scriptwriting, director etc... tried to capture all of that nostalgia and to me it didn’t work.
In comparison - Lost Boys did a perfect job capturing this. I guess that’s the difference between making a production in the correct time zone with actors from that generation vs a bunch of noobs with little experience being directed by well...........whomever.
Having been dragged up in the 70s, 80s this was my era......they didn’t do it justice IMO.
Questionable acting.....
Who’s the dude with the long black hair that fancies 11, he needs a lesson or two!
Also, in season 1, it started off quite sinister, had depth, from there it gradually went on a slippery slope.......it’s like they literally lost the plot!
I’m sure someone will pop up with the ratings figures on Netflix.
Mainline TV is poor these days so Netflix gets pounded which inevitably puts the ratings up, making it such a wonderful success.
I hope the pin does well for those that love the theme which will make it cooler for them, as long as they don’t screw the artwork up.
I’ll certainly consider it if it’s well put together even though I didn’t gel with the series.
