Right after watching all five seasons of Stranger Things, I watched the making of documentary One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5. For how much the Internet praised and complained about Will’s coming out scene, there was zero mention of it. The documentary’s timeline even skips bizarrely from the making of Episode 6 to the making of Episode 8. Did the creators of the documentary foresee what a train wreck of controversy Episode 7 was going to be and intentionally exclude all commentary about it? Did they re-edit the documentary to remove mention of Episode 7 and replace it with more commentary about Episode 8 after the controversy? Or was Episode 7 so special in their mind that they excluded it to be experienced in the show alone?
On a lighter subject, watching the set dresser splash fake blood on the walls and everything else for Mrs. Wheeler’s fight scene made me cringe.
