Minority Mindset

Sometimes, a TV show will wrap up its story well, even if it’s not a particularly famous or highly-regarded series. These satisfying endings are uncommon, but a strong finale, especially for a Western, can really shape how people remember the show.

In the first part of Stranger Things season 5, Dr. Kay, played by Hamilton, was revealed as a new villain. She’s established a military base in the Upside Down to help her track down Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown). Her intense interest in Eleven and others with similar abilities is reminiscent of Dr. Brenner’s experiments with the children.

Although his new film, Anaconda, involved working with a real snake, Ice Cube recently shared with USA Today that the experience wasn’t nearly as challenging as something he faced while filming the 2008 war movie Tropic Thunder. When asked about encountering animals on set during shoots in places like Australia and New Zealand, he revealed the most difficult situation actually happened in the United States.

Since The Expanse first aired, many new science fiction shows have emerged, ranging from grand, visually impressive series to reboots of older favorites. While some were creative and fun, few consistently delivered the same level of quality or explored such meaningful themes. Many of these shows faltered with disappointing endings or lacked depth in their characters, leaving a void for a smart, mature space drama that truly stood out and set a high standard for the genre on television.

The first new project in the Stranger Things universe is a prequel focusing on the backstory of Henry Creel. Another upcoming addition is an animated spinoff called Stranger Things: Tales From ’85, which will take place between the second and third seasons of the original show.

He always seemed to bring bad luck to those he cared about, and several people close to him suffered terrible fates. Losing Sirius Black and Remus Lupin, who acted as father figures, was particularly devastating. But perhaps the most heartbreaking death of all was that of a character who didn’t even get to experience life fully.
