the stuff available on streaming networks. It's definitely a "Stranger Things" for the older set -- which is probably why it was a limited series (1 season). Was it all believable? No, but if that's the standard, most shows don't meet it fully. Think of it as a comic book. It was about as believable as Superman, Batman, Flash or any of them. If you liked comic books as a kid, you may like this series more than just a little.
