Celebrate Christmas in the Upside Down With These “Stranger Things” Cards
Let us reJoyce and be merry.
Netflix just shared their end of the year streaming statistics for 2017, revealing that “Stranger Things” was the #1 show that brought us all together this year. And speaking of bringing everyone together, that’s exactly what the holiday season is all about.
Okay I realize this is fast becoming a clunky segue, but hear me out. Someone just made “Stranger Things” Christmas cards, and we just think they’re the perfect way to show friends and family you’re thinking of them this holiday season.
They come courtesy of Alon Avissar, who writes…
“This Christmas something strange is approaching Hawkins. It is a place where holiday cheer translates into telekinesis and ominous flickering lights as far as the eye can see. But for those of us living outside of Indiana circa 1983, here is a line of cards that are sure to turn holiday frowns Upside Down.
This set featuring your favorite Stranger Things characters is a perfect way to let the special people in your life know that, like Barb, this Christmas they too have not been forgotten. So before the bad men come and take them away, let these sentimental mementos light up your Christmas brighter than Joyce Byers’ house.”

Production on season two of “Alien: Earth” has begun in London, and Deadline reports that Tracey Ullman (“Tracey Ullman’s Show“), Sam Spruell (“A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms“), and Jerome Flynn (“Game of Thrones“) have joined the cast.
They join previously announced series newcomer Peter Dinklage.
No character details have been divulged so far.
“Alien: Earth” Season 2 is shooting at the historic Pinewood Studios — home of the original Alien as well as Aliens, Alien 3, and Prometheus. The show’s new production designer, Neil Lamont, is the son of Alien production designer Peter Lamont.
Set in the year 2120, five corporations wield the power of nations, and proprietary advancements in technology provide the promise of a new tomorrow. When a mysterious space vessel crash-lands on Earth, a young woman and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers make a fateful discovery that puts them face-to-face with the planet’s greatest threat.
The second season “certainly expands on the promise of the first,” according to series creator Noah Hawley (“Fargo,” “Legion”). “It’s a bigger show, more world-building, and I can’t think of a better place for taking on that bigger challenge.”
Sydney Chandler, Timothy Olyphant, Alex Lawther, Samuel Blenkin, Babou Ceesay, Adrian Edmondson, David Rysdahl, Essie Davis, Lily Newmark, Erana James, Adarsh Gourav, Jonathan Ajayi, Kit Young, Diêm Camille, Moe Bar-El, and Sandra Yi Sencindiver star.
Also on the way from Noah Hawley? A remake of Argentine horror film Terrified for Warner Bros.
Stay tuned for more on “Alien: Earth” season two now that production has begun.
