'Stranger Things' gets the 'Mystery Science Theater' treatment and it's as glorious as you'd imagine
Watch Next

Netflix is the gift that keeps on giving. First, it gave us Stranger Things, then it revived cult classic Mystery Science Theater 3000, and now, it has combined the two properties to form one super-powered blob of pure '80s nostalgia.

Okay, so it's not actually a whole episode devoted to the Duffer Brothers' bingeworthy hit -- the new season of MST3K (which debuted today) sticks to the B-movies that became the cult show's bread and butter -- but it's a delicious taste of what might've been... or someday could be? Someone start crowdfunding, stat!
