If you know me, you might know that I'm the kind of guy who would notice a scientific issue while watching a movie or tv show.
I didn't, however, catch the anachronism of a 2000s periodic table in season one of the 1980s-set Stranger Things.
Clearly, ten or so elements (#108 and #110-118) - those discovered after 1983's setting for the first season. Another couple of them would need to be presented in three-letter, temporary names because the controversies around the names for elements #105-109.
In all, I don't think the periodic table anachronism caused audiences to enjoy their Stranger Things any less.
