Cool Stranger Things Videos: Hopper P.I., Dacre Montgomery audition

Stranger Things David Harbour

I haven't had a chance to watch the third season of Netflix's hit series Stranger Things yet, but that doesn't mean I don't have any idea of what occurs in the season. Sites have really had fun putting spoilers in the headlines of articles that then get displayed on the front page of Yahoo.

For example, I know that "fans are obsessing over Chief Hopper's perfect Hawaiian shirt" (another headline claims that "people are oddly turned on" by him in this shirt), so it makes sense to me that someone has decided to cut together a "Hopper, P.I." video imagining what it would be like if Hopper (played by David Harbour) and fellow Stranger Things characters were the stars of a show much like Magnum, P.I. Complete with the Magnum theme tune.

While this video contains clips from Stranger Things season 3, they don't strike me as spoilers, and the video overall is a lot of fun anyway.

I'm also aware that Dacre Montgomery's character Billy Hargrove has a larger role in season 3. I thought he was a great addition to the show in season 2, so I'm glad to hear there's more of him in the new episodes.

The audition video Montgomery recorded when trying to get cast as Billy is available to watch online, and it is quite a spectacle. Check it out:
