ダファー兄弟のロッテン・トマト連続記録が、Netflixの新作SF番組で正式に終了

ロッテン・トマトで常に高い評価を獲得していることで知られるダファー・ブラザーズは、Netflixでの新しいSFシリーズのリリースでその記録を打ち破った。

マットとロス・ダファーは、大人気の Netflix シリーズストレンジャー・シングスの制作と監督を行いました。最初の 4 シーズンは視聴者に好評でしたが、シーズン 5 は多くの批判を受けました。 Rotten Tomatoes では、視聴率 52% を獲得しましたが、これは全シーズンの中で最低であり、否定的に評価されたと考えられる唯一のシーズンでした。

ストレンジャー・シングス シーズン 5 のリリース後、ロッテン トマトで一連の視聴率が低下した後、ダファー兄弟は新番組ザ ボローズで盛り返しました。 85%の視聴者スコア(「ポップコーンメーター」)を獲得し、あまり好ましくないレビューに終止符を打った。以前は、何かとても悪いことが起こるは 61% の視聴者スコアを獲得し、ストレンジャー シングス: 85 年の物語は 52% を獲得しました。ここではストレンジャー・シングス シーズン 5 以降にダファー兄弟が制作したすべての番組の評価を見てみましょう。

ダファー兄弟のショー/シーズン トマトメータースコア ポップコーンメータースコア
ストレンジャー・シングス シーズン 5 82% 52%
何か非常に悪いことが起こりそうです 86% 61%
Stranger Things: Tales from ’85 season 1 63% 52%
The Boroughs 95% 85%

The Duffers produced Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen, Stranger Things: Tales from ’85, and The Boroughs, but didn’t create or run those shows. After Stranger Things season 5, their projects received poor reviews, often failing to reach a 60% approval rating on review sites. However, The Boroughs has changed that trend.

Audience reviews on Rotten Tomatoes praised the show for its strong acting, captivating sci-fi mysteries, and a vibe similar to both Stranger Things and classic Spielberg films. Many reviewers also appreciated seeing older characters portrayed in a fresh, non-stereotypical way, and expressed interest in a potential second season.

The Duffer Brothers‘ latest show has received high praise from critics, earning a 95% score on Rotten Tomatoes – significantly higher than the audience score. Jordan Williams of ScreenRant described the show, The Boroughs, as “charming and entertaining,” adding that viewers will likely want to spend more time with the characters.

The story features a group of unexpected heroes played by Alfred Molina, Geena Davis, Denis O’Hare, Alfred Woodard, Clarke Peters, and Bill Pullman. They are residents of a retirement community run by CEO Blaine Shaw (Seth Numrich), and they must face both supernatural threats and a larger conspiracy that puts everyone’s lives in danger.

In a recent interview with ScreenRant, actor Davis acknowledged the similarities between his show, The Boroughs, and Stranger Things. He explained that the comparison makes sense, as both shows feature a group of unlikely heroes who team up to protect others. Even the creators of Stranger Things, the Duffer Brothers, agreed, joking that The Boroughs uses golf carts instead of bicycles for their adventures. Davis thought this was a fitting observation.

The Duffer brothers are continuing to expand the world of Stranger Things. Season 2 of Stranger Things: Tales from ’85 has been greenlit and will be released in late 2026. They’re also developing a live-action Stranger Things spin-off, though details about the story are currently secret. Most of their future projects, however, will be produced through a new four-year agreement with Paramount Pictures for both films and TV series.

While The Boroughs hasn’t been officially picked up for a second season, the show’s ending suggests more story could be told. According to co-creator and showrunner Jeffrey Addiss, he and Will Matthews have already planned out what would happen next if the show continues, as they told ScreenRant.

All episodes of The Boroughs are now streaming on Netflix.
