The first four episodes dropped just two days ago, and Episode 4, \u201c<strong>Chapter Four: Sorcerer<\/strong>,\u201d is already breaking records. As of November 29, 2025, the episode sits at an impressive <strong>9.8 out of 10 on IMDb with more than 20,000 votes<\/strong>. This makes it the highest-rated episode in the entire series, with fans binge-watching the first 4 offerings before the show finale ends its run.<\/p>\n<p>What makes this milestone even juicier is how the rest of the series stacks up. Only one Season 3 episode ever reached the top 10, \u201cThe Battle of Starcourt,\u201d which sits at #7. Meanwhile, the show\u2019s lowest-rated chapter is still Season 2\u2019s infamous \u201cThe Lost Sister.\u201d Many fans felt the episode\u2019s detour away from Hawkins totally disrupted the momentum, with more than 15% of viewers rating it a one. Some viewers even expressed that this arc felt less like a real Stranger Things episode and more like a backdoor pilot, testing potential spin-off characters.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\">\n        <blockquote hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/StrangerNews11\/status\/1994824943452750240?s=20\" class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">With a 9.8\/10 on IMDb, STRANGER THINGS S05E04 Sorcerer now stands as the highest-rated episode of the series \ud83d\ude31 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/xsmbdMHKbV\">pic.twitter.com\/xsmbdMHKbV<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Stranger News (@StrangerNews11) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/StrangerNews11\/status\/1994824943452750240?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">November 29, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n        <\/figure>\n        \n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>But the mixed reviews from previous episodes are long gone with the critical and popular success of Season 4, and especially episode 4, which will be the last chapter fans will get to see until December. <strong>The next three episodes premiere on December 25<\/strong>, and<strong> the grand finale lands on Netflix on December 31<\/strong>.
