SBC Halloween 2020: Stranger Things

This is the 29th episode in the series.

This episode was hell to edit, as things behind the scenes took a while. This video was made in the middle of The Purge Arc and the video was intended to surpass 8 minutes. Originally Mania wasn’t supposed to be in it at all, but it fitted the plot better. It also worked as in the middle of making the video Jeff stopped responding for 3 months with no explamation. Which ended up costing their friendship. And the filming never worked out. Which meant the video was filmed the longest out of any episode to this point. Over 2 months, this also was the longest video to edit beating “SBC: Survivor: Allies And Alliances” at over an hour and 30 minutes of footage. Originally Turd Trooper was supposed to make an appearance as a Russian Spy, and make it have a sequel for Halloween 2021, but this was scrapped because they don’t have the editing.

This is the first episode of Season 3.

This is also the first Holiday Special in the entire series.

This video features Blast as Will, when he goes home he sees something in the shed, later it ends up being BlastedGay, who’s usually played by Blast himself or mainly Lee. But Lego was filled in since he usually gets costumes of the cast to annoy them as a practical joke or just for fun. And Lee was unavailable for videos at this time. Mania is in the second half of this episode.

Charlie is also featured a lot in this episode, appearing at the start and end.

Jeff appears at the beginning, but after his disappearance they just made it out that he died.

Lego plays BlastedGay as mentioned.

This was the first episode to reach 10 minutes.

Reception:

This episode wasn’t considered the best due to slow pacing, but people said it was good and a step in the right direction. But we should stick to just 4-5 minutes. But the editing was very good. Usually people would give it a 8 or 9 out of 10.

As of January 2021 aside from “Blast And The Chocolate Factory” this is Charlie’s favourite episode.
