Facts About Stranger Things

It was rejected by major networks

Stranger Things may have turned out to be a mass success, but so many major TV networks never believed in it. The Duffer brothers took their original pitch to over a dozen cable networks who were less than impressed with the script.

All of them rejected and Netflix was the last one that picked it up. Most of the networks who rejected it argued that they couldn’t center the show around four kids without making it a children’s show.
