The 2017 Emmys were full of incredible wins and politically-charged commentary, but the true stars of the evening was the pre-teen cast of Netflix’s Stranger Things. Young stars Millie Bobby Brown, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp and Caleb McLaughlin all showed up with their adult co-stars and peers looking very dapper and very excited about their big night out on the town. It’s really tough not to root for these youngsters, especially since they look so starry-eyed and excited to even be at the 2017 Emmys.
