The battle for viewership and critical reception is intensifying between IT: Welcome to Derry and the highly anticipated Stranger Things Season 5, particularly concerning their IMDb ratings. As of now, Stranger Things 5 is significantly outperforming its counterpart, boasting an impressive 8.6 rating derived from approximately 1.5 million votes. This indicates a massive and engaged global audience following the series' concluding chapter.
IT: Welcome to Derry, while off to a strong start in its own right, has achieved a rating of 7.8 with around 30,000 votes. The series, exploring Stephen King's dark universe, has garnered considerable attention, evidenced by its presence on numerous watchlists. However, these figures place it behind the established popularity and broad appeal of Stranger Things.
Both series are available on their respective streaming platforms, with new episodes slated for December 2025. While IT: Welcome to Derry is streaming on JioHotstar and Stranger Things 5 on Netflix, the current IMDb metrics suggest Stranger Things holds a distinct advantage. This divide, however, could shift as more episodes are released and viewer feedback evolves.
