Netflix Announces Stranger Things Season 2 Premiere Date With Surprise Super Bowl Ad

Spot includes an Eggo commercial from 1979

If it seems like the world is turning upside down, Netflix just confirmed it.

Continuing its tradition of using big TV moments to announce the premiere dates of its shows, Netflix dropped a surprise ad during the Super Bowl’s third quarter for Stranger Things 2, which will debut around Halloween. Stranger Things 2 is the title for Season 2 of Stranger Things, which was last summer’s big hit.

The ad features footage from a classic Eggo commercial that debuted in 1979 and aired in the ‘80s.
