If you thought the episode lengths of Stranger Things season 4 were long, then you better order in some extra popcorn for next month as the Duffer Brothers continue to extend the normal runtimes for a TV series. Every episode of season 4 so far has exceeded an hour, something that would have made the heads of TV executives of the past explode.
However, in the age of streaming and with the backing of one of the giants of the game, Netflix , Stranger Things' creators are starting to break the norms in what we expect from a show such as this.
As most people watch alone or with a friend or partner, it’s possible to pause the episode wherever you like and simply pick up the following evening. So while it might be difficult to fit two 70 minute plus episodes into an evening’s worth of telly, you can always just take breaks whenever you need to and the streaming platform will save your spot.
