Season 5 of Stranger Things entered Netflix's list of most popular English-language TV titles after the series finale became eligible on New Year's Eve. The season has reached 105.7 million views so far under Netflix's 91-day counting rule. For batched releases, Netflix counts each volume's first 91 days, so Season 5 will continue to add views through late March. The article places the season's performance alongside other top Netflix titles and prior Stranger Things seasons.
Key details:
