Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer The livestream for Netflix’s third annual Tudum fan event garnered 78 million views across all of the streamer’s social platforms Saturday, marking this version — presented in front of 11,000 people in São Paulo, Brazil — as up 86% in viewership from last year’s 41.8 million views, and more than 203% from 2021’s initial 25.7 million. Netflix likely didn’t set out to bring the in-person Tudum crowd to tears during the three-hour event — but once they started flowing, it was a fortunate side effect the streamer proudly displayed on social media. “I wish you could have been there to convey the electricity of the audience and capture those moments,” Netflix chief marketing officer Marian Lee told Variety Tuesday about the streamer’s first attempt at pulling off Tudum as a real-time presentation with an in-person audience, following two years of the virtual-version of the event. “We posted on Twitter crying fans in the audience because it was just like that sort of Beatles moment every time one of their favorites came on stage, there were just sobbing tears in the audience.”

Maye Hawke is opening up about Robin Buckley’s love life in the final season of Stranger Things. The star says she’s “mixed” about her character having an on-screen girlfriend for Season 5.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director The last time “Stranger Things” fans saw Maya Hawke’s Robin, she was making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for displaced Hawkins, Ind. townspeople alongside Vickie (Amybeth McNulty). Robin spent a lot of “Stranger Things 4” crushing on Vickie, a clarinetist who plays with her in the Hawkins High marching band. A lot of fans felt that PB&J scene opened the door for Robin and Vickie to become girlfriends in the upcoming fifth and final season of “Stranger Things.” Not so fast. During a recent interview with Yahoo Entertainment while on the press tour for Wes Anderson’s “Asteroid City,” Hawke said she has mixed feelings about Robin having a girlfriend in “Stranger Things 5.” Production on the show’s final season was supposed to kick off this summer but has been indefinitely put on hold amid the ongoing writers strike. Hawke said she has no idea what series creators Matt and Ross Duffer have planned for Robin in the final episodes.
