Netflix Stranger Things
Netflix is finally bringing Stranger Things back for Season 2, and fans can’t wait to see what’s happening next in the world of the Upside Down. The series will be released all at once, just in time for Halloween, on Friday, October 27. But exactly what time should you start looking for the newest season of Stranger Things? Historically, Netflix shows become available around 3 a.m. Eastern on the release date. But sometimes Netflix throws a curveball and releases a series a little later than that, such as when it released Season 3 of House of Cards at 6 a.m. Eastern.
However, that season was outside the norm. In May, Netflix in Australia and New Zealand tweeted that Netflix originals will always be released at midnight Pacific (and simultaneously around the world.)
@MrAaronVenn @BlackEarthNomad @netflix @NintendoAUNZ Netflix originals are released worldwide at midnight PT, so that’s 5pm AEST. Hope you cleared your weekend!
