Finale Frenzy

 

 

SOME users found it difficult to log in on Netflix onWednesday night to watch the finale of Stranger Things, the series that debuted in 2016 and became an instant hit with viewers with its band of adventure-loving kids, nostalgic 80s setting and the Upside Down. The streamer faced a similar technical issue during the season 5 premiere of the show on November 26.

 

The crash on Wednesday lasted for about a minute and was fixed after a few refreshes. Users encountering the error were met with an image from “Nailed It!” with the caption: “Something went wrong. Sorry, we're having trouble with your request. You'll find lots to explore on the home page”, reported Variety.

 

During the November 26 crash, Netflix was down for about five minutes when the first four episodes of Season 5 released. Season 5 of Stranger Things was the most-watched title worldwide thanks to the three new episodes. Between December 22-28, the fifth and final season received 34.5 million views.
