Thanks to Season 4's "Runnin Up That Hill" amazing scene that made me wanna give this show another try. Loving it! Time for some binge watching.
I'm so jealous I did not live in the 80's

Great pilot.
E.T. + The Goonies + everything that was good in 80s. It's a nice appeal to nostalgia, and is very well articulated with the story.
Winona Ryder and the kids are brilliant in it.
Going in, only reading the show description, I was sceptic as it sounded like yet another missing child story.
But i'm really digging this! Good start on the series and with only 8 eps it should be all nice and compact too.
What a fantastic start. I got my 80's feeling back.
Best new series this year so far.
