It’s official: We’ll be waiting a little bit longer for the next chapter in the Stranger Things saga, but according to Netflix, it’ll be worth it. The delay — and the reason behind it — was formally confirmed over the weekend at the streaming giant’s panel at the Television Critics Association summer press tour, where the company’s VP of original content also discussed what fans can expect from Stranger Things Season 3.
After-show specials for today’s biggest TV are pretty old-hat by now, but it’s another matter when Netflix attempts one with its all-at-once binge model. As such, Stranger Things will go Beyond with Netflix’s first stab at a post-binge talk show, launching alongside the new season.
