You see, this video from Instagram’s Doug the Pug garbed as Barb, Eleven, Mike, Chief Hopper, Joyce and other favourites from Hawkins is vital viewing. Because, fan of the Netflix show or not, Stranger Pugs will change your life. Or at least the next 25 seconds.

We already know three new characters will be introduced in Stranger Things season two, but there’s now a strong argument for bringing Doug into the cast. As everyone. Seriously, ditch everyone else and give us nine hours of this, please.
