PaperGirls was created before Stranger Things, there is no comparison. One can say that Stranger Things was based on the PaperGirls comics.

[@jaives]

stranger things is a successful nostalgia bait. paper girls is unique and isn't referencing anything other than it's set in the 80's.

[@epicon6]

@@jaives It's not even set in the 80's but all over time

[@Treacho]

@@jaives Stranger Things is a better show than Paper girls anyways.

[@Treacho]

Stranger things isn't based on the comics, it was written before 2015 and the filming started in 2015. The show came out in 2016.

[@jaives]

@@Treacho debatable since the show only started. there shouldn't be a comparison. ST is 80's nostalgia bait. PG is just a well written story. This is like Expanse and GoT all over again where people kept describing the former as "GoT in space" when it was more than that. GoT may have been more popular, but Expanse was the better story.

[@imrunningsoda1350]

I have a feeling people are gonna miss out on this show thinking its just 'amazon prime's stranger things' but its not it really isnt. Its very different. People are drawing comparisons coz its based in 80s and has sci fi themes but its not stranger things. The comics came out before stranger things. I would just recommend checking this show out its so beautiful. the sci fi part is rly good and so is the emotional philosophical part. Y'all will not regret watching this trust me

[@paulstrife]

The characters have far more depth and all 4 put together solid acting. Stranger Things is incredible, but was weak in those areas. The elder cast of ST made up for it.

[@imrunningsoda1350]

@@paulstrife yesss so true

[@SnappingTurtle801]

I almost passed on it just because of the name and thumbnail. I thought it was another teen movie, not that I don't like them.... Then I checked out the trailer and when it turned out to be about time travel I was in.

[@MichaelMidnight]

This first season was so great and the chemistry among the young girls is unmistakable. Glad to see they have a friendship outside the camera! Wish them all the best and a hopeful greenlight for more seasons

[@UttRConcrete]

The cgi was horrible, robot spiders, dinosaur, and the pink light at the end looked like a SyFY channel production.

[@sumanagupta2452]

I really hope this show gets renewed

[@charlesleeray5863]

I hope so too

[@TrangPakbaby]

If it doesn’t I’m done with Amazon. This show is GOLD

[@imrunningsoda1350]

sofia talks so wisely its amazing

[@littlangel37]

They seem like they genuinely bonded on set and off set, can't wait to see them on screen ^^

[@skskskksks]

The show is GREAT, Can't wait for Season 2! I love these girls!

[@1spun716]

The mac character hands down the best..when the guy is pulling the tape apart in the barn the look on her face was priceless..great show..👌🤙👍

[@TrangPakbaby]

How absolutely adorable are these young women? The actress playing Tiff reminds me so much of my niece. So adorable and such good actresses

[@jennene07]

Same I think of my niece too

[@abbymorganRIP]

josh, timey-wimey is a well known doctor who phrase you should know this lol

[@marianacordeiro5134]

Everyone should go watch this show! I binged it in one day and I'm sad it didn't have more eps. Hope it gets renewed!

[@AnnaStock55]

They're so wonderful! Really hope Legendary manages to find someone, who will produce season 2 💜🌈

[@br00kkkkkk14]

I love paper girls so much I watched it yesterday it’s now one of my favs

[@emmaford9756]

Protect Sofia at all costs

[@cynniebynnie]

What an amazing show. I will literally never recover if there isn’t a season 2. Such an amazing cast too 💟

[@rogue8059]

I really hope this get pick up for more seasons. This show would've made my pre-teenage self so happy

[@Sin_Del.42]

Female frienship is really important and it is very unique. Given how it is depicted in popculture and how it actually is in real life. These girls are amazing! Stranger Things is it's own show but In a realistic perspective I'd pick this show over ST.

[@leroyandjunior]

This show is nothing like Stranger Things. It is much deeper and also realistic and relevant than Stranger Things. Colored girls are involved and touch based on their cultures and including the Jewish character, and the white girls came from opposite backgrounds (One from poverty and the other from a rich background), and just the challenges that developing teenage girls go through. I was hooked since they all reminded me of my teenage years.

[@oo0024]

These young women have promising careers, I just finished the series, I thought it was decent.

[@ramsam4522]

Loved this series, can’t wait for SEASON 2! It’s not the same as ST, the only similarity is that they’re both set in the ‘80s, and PG is a time travel movie, ST is not. I love both!

[@slat13]

Absolutely love the show. These 4 main actresses are young but so great in their role.

[@dis_john]

If anything, it should be compared to Dark, not ST. Paper Girls is much lighter in tone though. Binged it in two days... really enjoyed it.

[@paulstrife]

Dark definitely needs your full attention

[@whimsicalweirdo5422]

I loved the show, I hope they renew it

[@Itznanaaa]

I went to the premiere and they were there lol you guys not believe me but they were literally in Chicago and then I got to meet the actors big tony if you watched the show

[@OmarAntonioFigueroa1989]

PAPER GIRLS should be on AppleTV+

[@krillinz6407]

THE GIRL ON THE FAR RIGHT IS LITERALLY CASSANDRA CAIN EVEN THE HAIR DC PLEASE BE SMART

[@itspriyankaaa]

Show was great... I hope it gets another season...

[@tonyyoung3985]

Reading the synopses, it seems like season 1 is only a small part of the comic book arc it's based on.

[@HELINHELIN11]

hhhhhhhh sophia says" as far as you know"

[@jasminelopez3336]

I love them so much! And they did such an amazing job!

[@user-ej9fm3en6c]

Sofia　so cute!

[@TQBF0304]

Fina Strazza can definitely play a younger version of Winona Ryder.

[@nathanreddent2427]

The only similarity of stranger things and this comic so far I’ve read is it’s in the 80s. And I guess maybe the way the sky looks in the shows. Other than that. Nothing

[@vokasimid5330]

Finally an American pronounced Lucy Liu's name correctly

[@nicoslays]

Im still so mad and sad that its canceled

[@ezra5568]

We need a season 2!!

[@brandonbosticlovesjesuschr6523]

Paper girls was a great show

[@BigMacCoyle]

😁 Can't wait

[@Mariahdaynell]

I love this show ,

[@akanshaverma6236]

Great show ...why season 2 is not coming 😢😢😢

[@rycameron4231]

There is a petition for a second season of Paper Girls if you want to save it (on Change)

[@ricecakedmamii9488]

The comic is awesome!!

[@trecedoce5982]

We need a season two godammit

[@Sydniedault]

They seem funny

[@adriely228]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@UttRConcrete]

Show got canned

[@namaku8630]

The sequence is pretty obvious. Back to The Future copycat. 1st season : present time 1988 and then timetravel to the future 2019. 2nd season : future time 2019 and then timetravel to the past 1950s. I can see the pattern here.🤣🤣 3rd season : past time 1950s and then timetravel far way back to the past (the old west cowboy 1800s) 😅😅
