    This is not the way to release a show.

    It’s holiday season, people are traveling and people are hanging out with different people who are in different states of watching the show.

    January is the dump month, so I guess it’s a free space, but huge miss.

      My assumption is they are trying to get the “Family Christmas movie” crowd that goes see a movie on Christmas, and they are hoping a month is enough time for everyone to watch volume 1. Gathering the family to watch Stranger things would be cheaper than going out.
