Harbour received considerable praise for his role as Sheriff Hopper on Stranger Things. The character had an apparent death in the third season. The teaser for Season 4 is out and wild fan theories have been rolling out ever since then.

Harbour had the following to say about it:

“There’s always discussion on set about kicking around ideas about what would be cool and stuff, but there’s a lot of stuff that goes down in season three that you’re going to want to pay attention to before you start thinking at all about the future”

According to Harbour, the third season of Stranger Things was the best one of all. He said that episode eight was the best thing they have ever shot. It was unexpected, beautiful and tight without a second of downtime. He called it a masterpiece. It remains to be seen whether his character will make an appearance in Season 4.
