Stranger Things
Season 1: I can't see what all the fuss was about. It's an interesting enough story for me to continue with the next season, but not as great as everyone was making it out to be. 6.5/10
I have not continued with it.

There is too much "action" in this sci-fi series, the fight sequences become tedious and boring. A few holes in the plot spoil the story somewhat. 6/10

Them
A suspenseful, upsetting, and uncomfortable watch. This series includes rape, infanticide, murder, kidnapping, racism, animal killing and torture. We could only stomach 2 episodes an evening. (the suspense was so intense I forgot to breathe at times). Episodes 1 - 8 were 8/10 but episodes 9 and 10 let the series down a bit, in fact, I didn't think that episode 10 was necessary at all. 7.5/10
