On July 15, 2016, Netflix released a show that continues to be among the streamer's most successful franchises of all time: Stranger Things. For nearly a decade, the series brought audiences into the Upside Down and introduced them to a range of characters, from beloved fan-favorites like Eleven/Jane Hopper and Steve Harrington to terrifying villains like Papa/Dr. Martin Brenner and, of course, Vecna/Henry Creel (which are actually just a few of his names).
For four seasons, Stranger Things was riding high, with fans willing to wait entire years between seasons just because they were so committed to the mind-bending series. Unfortunately, Stranger Things Season 5 didn't get quite the same love. Rather, the show's final season, and particularly the series finale, were met with heated backlash for a range of reasons, from the handling of the "Byler" fan ship of Mike Wheeler and Will Byers to Eleven's tragic fate and so much more.
The backlash to Stranger Things season 5 was actually so intense that it gave way to a surprisingly widespread conspiracy theory, Conformity Gate, which espoused the belief that the Stranger Things finale was so inconsistent with the rest of the show and, in some fans' views, so poor in quality that it was surely a fake-out finale and a real final episode was coming. Ultimately, that was proven untrue, which has left a sour taste in the mouths of some in the fanbase.
Nevertheless, the 10th anniversary of the show has stirred up plenty of celebration, such as a series of Instagram posts on the official Stranger Things account, sharing videos of multiple cast members reflecting on their impressions of one another the first time that they met, including Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Natalia Dyer, Jamie Campbell Bower and several others.
