Matt, Ross Duffer reveal the secret behind ‘Stranger Things’ success
Matt and Ross Duffer have revealed the secret to the success of Stranger Things.
At the Los Angeles premiere of Stranger Things‘ fifth and final season on Nov. 6, the twin brothers reflected on how the show has hit home with people.
“I think a lot of the success of the show is, people can relate to these characters, and they can relate to these actors. They’re good people,” Ross told People. “And I think it comes through in their performances.”
The fans “see themselves in [the characters] and they see the challenges they go through, and watching them overcome it gives them hope,” he added. “So, I think that’s a big part of the success.”
Matt thinks the secret ingredient is the cast, who “has become a big family.”
“For the younger cast, the kids who are no longer kids, it’s been 10 years, it’s half their lives,” he says, referring to Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Caleb McLaughlin and Gaten Matarazzo.
“They’re all very, very close. And I think the real-life bond that they have translates into the show,” he added.
Ross went on to tease that the final season of Stranger Things is “intense from beginning to end.” The season will hit Netflix on Nov. 26 with the first four episodes, followed by three episodes arriving on Christmas and the finale on New Year’s Eve.

Alec Baldwin fears wife Hilaria ‘will ditch him’ due to THIS
Alec Baldwin is seemingly furious over his wife, Hilaria Baldwin, as she is putting their wedding at risk just to become successful in Hollywood.
Radar Online reported that the 41-year-old American yoga instructor and entrepreneur, who tied the knot with Alec, a renowned actor and film producer, in 2012, is showing desperation to cement her place in the entertainment world, which is putting a strain on her marital life.
An insider told the outlet that Hilaria’s brief time on Dancing with the Stars has already caused major rifts in her relationship with husband Alec. He looked after their seven children in New York when Hilaria was busy shooting Dancing with the Stars in Los Angeles.
The speculations reached a peak as the Nightcap star was spotted without her wedding ring on various occasions. However, the Beetlejuice alum is fuming with rage and considers the whole ring drama an effort to stay relevant in the media.
“Alec feels he’s been a good sport, but it’s very clear to him that Hilaria’s putting her career ambitions above everything, including him,” the source said.
“The feeling in her social circle is that she’s being incredibly insensitive toward Alec. At this point, it’s very obvious to Alec that Hilaria’s only using him to build a brand for herself, and the fear is that once she gets her big Hollywood break, she’ll ditch him,” the insider stated.

Record-breaking snowfall blankets Toronto, shattering decades-old records
Toronto residents woke up on Monday, November 11, to a winter-like landscape that was unseasonal following a major snowstorm that had shattered two weather records that had been long held about early November.
The city was hit with 9.8 centimeters of snow on Sunday, November 9 and more snow followed overnight.
As reported by Environment Canada, this was the heaviest November 9 in 54 years, breaking the record of 1.5 centimeters in 1971.
Moreover, the total amount of snow in the two days of the storm is the most significant amount of snow that Toronto had experienced at the beginning of the season since October 1981.
“A very rare event for this much snow to fall this early in the Toronto area,” said Environment Canada meteorologist Geoff Coulson.
He explained that it is not unheard of that there was light snow earlier on in November but the quantity of snow on this particular date was the first to be experienced in Pearson International Airport, the city weather station.
The disruptive storm was experienced throughout the area with Hamilton getting 17 cm and Ottawa getting 12 cm.
Ontario Provincial Police is reported to have attended to more than 200 crashes all over the Greater Toronto Area due to the slick conditions.
The City of Toronto responded by sending out salt brine and salting activities on priority routes.
Although early in the week or early in the season the temperatures will not be able to rise beyond the seasonal average of 8°C, the early sign of winter will actually be relieved by the middle of the week, and temperatures will revert to a more moderate range on Wednesday, November 12.
