David Harbour Says The Cast Of ‘Stranger Things’ Were “Uncontrollably Crying” During Table Read For The Final Episode

Buy Me A Coffee

David Harbour, the charismatic actor who brought us the grumpy-but-lovable Jim Hopper, just dropped some spicy new details about the Stranger Things finale. And brace yourselvesโ€”this isn’t just a “sniffle at the end” kind of farewell. No, no. This is the grab-your-tissues-and-sob-until-your-eyes-look-like-a-Demogorgon kind of finale.

During the 10th-anniversary shindig for the Happy Sad Confused podcast on October 17, Harbour shared some inside scoop thatโ€™ll make fans excitedโ€”and emotionally ruined. Because whatโ€™s a TV show ending without a good group cry, right?

David: Professional Show Critic and Resident Heartbreaker
โ€œI can be very critical of this show,โ€ Harbour confessed, like someone who says, “I don’t usually like cake” but eats the whole thing anyway. Even with his nitpicky tendencies, he admitted that the final episode is โ€œthe best episode theyโ€™ve ever done.โ€ Big words from the man who survived a Russian gulag and fought off monsters in two dimensions!

Prepare for Waterworks, Yโ€™all
Apparently, the emotional chaos started right in the middle of the final table read. “Halfway through, people started crying,” Harbour said, as if tears were just casually handed out like snacks. โ€œThen the last 20 minutes were pure ugly-cryingโ€”like, Noah Schnapp was in peak tear-mode.โ€

Imagine a room full of actors sobbing uncontrollably, tissues flying, noses honking like theyโ€™re auditioning for a tissue commercial. David wasnโ€™t ready for it, and you wonโ€™t be either.

End of an Era for the Hawkins Gang
Harbour went full sentimental mode, reflecting on how the show was essentially the kidsโ€™ childhood in real-time. โ€œItโ€™s been 10 years,โ€ he said, probably with that wistful look only people with impressive beards can pull off. โ€œAnd this season really explores that, which makes it so beautiful.โ€

Heโ€™s hyping this last season like itโ€™s the emotional equivalent of getting Elevenโ€™s powers and being forced to say goodbye to Steve Harringtonโ€™s hair.

“Youโ€™ll Love Itโ€ฆ While Crying” – David Harbour, 2024
Get ready to love every single minute of this final seasonโ€”while sobbing uncontrollably, obviously. โ€œItโ€™s a great episode, and itโ€™s such a great season,โ€ Harbour promised with the confidence of a man who knows fans will be crying into their Eggo waffles for weeks.

So, whether youโ€™re emotionally ready or not, David Harbour says this finale is comingโ€”and itโ€™s coming for your heart.
