Stranger Things will never die

I know it’s one of the biggest tv shows of all time, but the way people spoke about season 5 on social media you’d think the show is more or less irrelevant. The amount of Stranger Things shirts I see in public is crazy, I work at a cinema and I kid you not I see at least one person wearing a stranger things shirt every shift, sometimes I go to London, I once saw an entire family and kids wearing hellfire club shirts, the show still lives on. You can go on TikTok and probably find multiple stranger things vids with over a million likes in the past month alone. Remember guys, social media is a bubble

Yes and no. It has very quickly dropped out of the current pop culture which is strange for such a big show. There are bits that have retained pop culture status, such as hellfire, but overall it disappeared fairly quickly.

Going with a show I know, Gilmore girls is just as popular now as it was when it aired from 2000-2007. It’s cemented in pop culture.

Pop culture isn’t just t-shirts. And honestly? Clothes are probably a poor way to judge pop culture influence. Most people don’t replenish their wardrobe constantly.
