Netflix has announced the release date for a new supernatural TV show executive-produced by Stranger Things’ Matt and Ross Duffer.
The Boroughs is an eight-episode series from creators, showrunners, and executive producers Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews (The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance). The logline reads: “In a seemingly perfect retirement community, a grieving newcomer’s monstrous encounter inspires him to join a misfit crew of unlikely heroes who uncover a dark secret that proves their ‘golden years’ are more dangerous, and they are more formidable, than anyone expects.”
