Stranger Things has been one of the most successful Netflix original series in recent memory, and the Emmys definitely recognized the show accordingly: it was nominated for a whopping 18 Emmys this year, including one for Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Supporting Actress and Actor nominations for Millie Bobby Brown and David Harbour, respectively.
But as the Emmys started to unfold tonight, it became clear that Stranger Things was not going to sweep the night like many thought it would. In fact, the entire cast left the Emmys empty handed. Millie Bobby Brown lost in her category to Ann Dowd for her performance on The Handmaid's Tale, and The Handmaid's Tale also won for Outstanding Drama Series. It was a tough reality for many fans who tuned in tonight just to see one of last year's most popular shows get some awards love, but instead they had to be content with taking to Twitter to air out their frustrations.
Emmy or no Emmy, one thing is certain: the cast definitely looked fly as hell on Sunday night.
If all this awards season chatter has got you aching for some brand new episodes of Stranger Things to binge on, you're in luck because the show's second season is premiering Oct. 27 on Netflix, and the trailer looks dope. Binge-watch it while you wait.
