#7: Reacting to VR
Considering the scary nature of “Stranger Things” and the tender age of the primary cast members, it should come as no surprise that people want to freak them out. While they’re acting, they don’t get the full experience of seeing the CGI and special effects, so Netflix gave them VR headsets so they could fully immerse themselves in the horrifying world of Hawkins. Even though we can’t see what they’re seeing, it’s hilarious to watch their reactions to whatever it is that’s happening. And this isn’t the only time we’ve gotten a laugh at their expense...

#4: Barb’s “Return”
Jimmy Fallon clearly loves “Stranger Things”, because he has taken the opportunity to involve the show in several different skits.

Each of their performances was distinct and each seemed better than the last. Watching the other cast members look on as one of them performed showed just how tight this crew is.

The whole piece was “La La Land” themed, with stars from all of the years biggest TV and movie hits making appearances.
