In our debut, Kinte and Jen break down the series premiere set in 1962 Derry, Maine, where a missing boy sparks an uneasy alliance of local teens while mysterious Air Force arrivals hint at a larger, ominous plan. We connect the episode’s key beats and Easter eggs to Stephen King’s 1986 novel IT and the Muschietti films, and track how the pilot plants the seeds of Pennywise’s cycle of fear—From storm drains to red balloons, what early clues signal the horror to come?
