“Some members briefly experienced an issue streaming on TV devices, but service recovered for all accounts within five minutes,” Netflix told Reuters.
The streaming platform has ranked “Stranger Things” as its third-most popular English-language series globally. The highly anticipated season was set to be released at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
