The sci-fi series turned cultural phenomenon premiered last year just as the streaming service expanded from 60 countries to over 190. >Netflix says the first season was watched by subscribers nearly everywhere around the globe. One member streamed the first season from Antarctica, a handful watched from places like Bhutan and Chad; millions more streamed from countries like the US, Mexico, and Germany. It wasn’t easy to make the Duffer brothers’ homage to 1980s American pop culture land globally.
