Pretty Much It revisits Steve's bat-swinging Stranger Things glory

Eric and Miles return to the first season in matching varsity jackets, with Joyce's alphabet wall and the bicycle chase along the way.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Stranger Things used to be SO cool...

Eric Striffler and Miles have a clear favorite when Steve Harrington picks up that nail-studded baseball bat. Watching him take on the Demogorgon, Eric declares it "Literally the coolest scene in the whole goddamn show."

Pretty Much It posted nothing new this week, but "Stranger Things used to be SO cool..." is its busiest video right now. The first-season rewatch has reached about 413,000 views, with the hosts in matching red-and-black varsity jackets, rediscovering Barb, Steve's early hairstyle and the wonderfully unsettling sight of Joyce communicating through Christmas lights. Their jokes occasionally give way to a filmmaking observation, including the forced perspective in Eleven's diner introduction.

There's another kind of rewatch in "I got too drunk before watching this weird old Halloween movie": Eric revisits his own commentary on The Halloween Tree. The description places the original recording in his van at five in the morning, then the return viewing two years later. That upload and the six-film Resident Evil marathon with Jake and Mike round out the channel's busiest videos.

Subscribers held steady over the week, while daily views are running below their usual level. Nearby in movie commentary, Like Stories of Old is having a particularly busy day relative to its norm; YMS is a little quieter than usual too. For Pretty Much It, the strongest ongoing draw is Eric and Miles finding plenty to joke about, and some things worth admiring, back in Hawkins.
