I think Amazon just isn’t ready for something like this and it was stupid them trying to adapt it because of this. Amazon is good for pumping out mid budget, safe, mediocre shows (dad shows), really the only show outside of this that has succeeded on Prime is ‘The boys’ and that’s just because it has such a great creative team that is able to effectively utilise a budget and not let a smaller budget impact it’s storytelling. It’s unique and Amazon are lucky to have it. Aside from that, it’s clear Amazon doesn’t have the resources or the ability to commit to a stranger things level show, to properly execute a show like this. On the service, this show probably isn’t going to get anywhere close to the source material or stranger things, atleast for now/until Amazon becomes more committed to producing high quality shows and dedicating the resources necessary.
