Stranger Things Series Finale: Episode 378 - It all comes down to this. On this episode of Normies Like Us, we’re heading back to Hawkins one last time to talk about the final stretch of Season 5 and the series finale of Stranger Things. The bikes are parked, the gates are closing, and a show that defined a decade of genre TV has officially come to an end.
We dig into the biggest moments from the last part of the season, the emotional hits, the character send-offs, and whether the finale delivered on all those years of buildup. Who stuck the landing? Which arcs paid off? What surprised us, disappointed us, or completely wrecked us? We break down the themes, the nostalgia, the horror, and the spectacle—without pretending we aren’t a little sad to leave this world behind.
Did Stranger Things finish strong? Did it give the Party the ending they deserved? And where does the whole series land now that the Upside Down is (finally) behind us?
Light the Christmas lights one more time and join Normies Like Us as we say goodbye to Hawkins. 🎬✨
Leggo my Eggo.

Spirited Away: Episode 376 - This week on Normies Like Us, we finally step through the tunnel and into the bathhouse as we cover Hayao Miyazaki’s beloved animated masterpiece, Spirited Away. For many, it’s a childhood classic; for others, it’s their first trip into the wonderfully strange world of Studio Ghibli. Either way, we’re watching it with fresh eyes and very normal expectations.
