I am such a big fan of Netflix – not because I can ever find any shows or movies to watch there, but for its original series. Specifically I really, really like Stranger Things.

The cast will include series originals Joel Hodgson, Mary Jo Pehl, Bill Corbett and Kevin Murphy, though newcomers Hampton Yount and Baron Vaughn will be playing Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo.
