‘Stranger Things’ Parody: Barb Returns (And Goes Nuts) on ‘Fallon’

Last night, Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon invited the kids from Stranger Things to come play a game involving silly string and perform in a sketch and things got unusual.

A Stranger Things parody that’s aired on Wednesday’s Tonight Show put the forgotten underdog – played here by the show’s head writer and frequent performer A.D. Miles – front and center.

Can’t wait for that Barb spin off.

Clearly shaking in horror, Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin) offered the limp excuse that “it was pretty dark” in the Upside Down, so it was hard to find Barb.

“What the f–! You forget about something?”

The kids take turns trying to explain why they didn’t prioritize saving her.

Unfortunately, and thanks to everyone’s negligence, the Demogorgon got Barb good, and she’s not coming back for season two, the creators said in an interview.

If you’ve seen the Netflix cult hit of the summer, you know Barb definitely got the short end of the stick. She made a trade… and now, Will is back in the alternate universe! Chief among them: “We’ll make sure there’s some justice for Barb”. That stuff is all happening, we’re just not spending any screen time on it. (She flashes the bird to show the one left.) “Do the math, a**holes”. Stranger Things is now teasing season two of the show which should be here in 2017.
