While Stranger Things season 5 debuted with massive viewership, its numbers plunged in its second week on Netflix.
As pointed out by What's On Netflix (and per Netflix's own viewing figures), the sci-fi show's viewership dropped from its huge 59.6 million premiere week figure to 23.6 million in its second week (December 1 to December 7).
That doesn't necessarily spell doom for the show, of course, since it likely just means that almost everyone watched the new episodes in their first week streaming. There are two more releases still to come for the final season, too, with Volume 2 landing on December 25, and the finale streaming on December 31.
In our Stranger Things season 5, part 1 review, we gave the show four stars, with our verdict reading: "After a three-year wait, Volume 1 of the fifth and final season of Stranger Things doesn't disappoint, with blockbuster set-pieces, riveting twists, heartbreaking performances, and a cliffhanger that will make you wish it was Christmas Day already. Roll on Volume 2."
