    Here, either it’s assumed we know more, or character development was a casualty of the writing process. Either way, some characters are written pretty thin. Luckily, the young actors are all engaging, making up for a lot of that. And if you like horror — it sounds as if horror would be self-evident in a horror series, but fans of the genre know it can be surprisingly lacking — “It: Welcome to Derry” won’t disappoint. At least not much.

    Assured, atmospheric, and full of eerie, unnerving dread, the series doesn’t reinvent King’s world—it enriches it.

    “Derry” dribbles out character details episode-by-episode through five (of eight) episodes made available for review, routinely connecting seemingly disparate characters. That “Stand by Me”-meets-“Stranger Things” vibe of the first episode returns in episode three, thankfully, since it’s the show’s most potent element.
