the fourth season of Stranger Things (2016) just arrived at Netflix, but fans are already looking forward to new episodes. However, as they face the long wait – as the series may not return until 2024 – the Amazon Prime Video presented a potential competitor for the production of Netflix: Paper Girls (2022).

Inspired by the comics Brian K. Vaughanthe series is also set in the 1980s and is full of mystery, action and funny scenes, in addition to being carried out by a teenage cast. Paper Girls follows four teenagers who deliver newspapers in a city in the interior of the United States.

However, the morning after Halloween, they run into time travelers at war and end up accidentally transported to the future, where they need the help of their own adult versions to return to the past. However, the “selves” of the future are nothing like what they imagined when they were 12 years old. To make matters worse, the group is hunted by a militant faction of time travelers known as the Old Watch, which has banned such travel.
