Watch the ‘Stranger Things’ Cast Recap Every Previous Season With a One-Minute Rap

With the long-awaited final season of Stranger Things finally kicking off on Wednesday night (Nov. 26), audiences might need a little refresher on what’s happened in the four seasons released over the last decade. Luckily, the cast of the hit series is here to help.

During The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday (Nov. 25), 10 of the show’s core cast members — Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp, Caleb McLaughlin, Sadie Sink, Gaten Matarazzo, Joe Keery, Natalia Dyer, Maya Hawke and Charlie Heaton — delivered a one-minute recap of all 34 episodes preceding the season five premiere through a fast-paced rap.

As they reached the end of each season of their recap, the pace picked up, with the cast quickly speeding through the plot, while Schnapp hilariously complains about Will Byers’ consistent bowl cuts throughout all the seasons.

When they reached the end of their rap, the cast gave five seconds of their recap to what’s coming in season five. While they didn’t reveal much, the cast offered a set of hints for the audience: “Season five, Vecna’s lair/ Don’t start floating in the air,” they rapped. “One more year with better hair/ Stranger Things, we’ll see you there.”

Fans of the show have been patiently waiting for the final season to drop since July 2022, when the fourth season released its final episodes. Back in 2022, Stranger Things proved its status as a cultural behemoth when the show’s inclusion of Kate Bush’s classic track “Running Up That Hill” provided the song with a massive chart boost, sending the English singer-songwriter’s 37-year-old track to No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
