Bad news for all of you who thought 2017 has been the worst year ever: 2018 isn't looking so hot right now either.

Next year, 365 long days will probably come and go without a new season of the Netflix smash hit Stranger Things, if the internet's daddy David Harbour has the right intel. The streaming giant confirmed that a Season 3 is in the works earlier this month — but it didn't specify exactly when the show would return with new episodes.

Harbour told Varietythat the masterminds behind the series, the Duffer brothers, will probably need a ton of time to actually write the next season. Plotting out all the weird paranormal stuff and '80s homages that will take place in Hawkins, Indiana -- and perhaps beyond -- takes a ton of time and creativity, so there could be a longer wait than last year.

“I mean, one of the things that’s annoying for fans is that it takes us a long time to do them,” Harbour said in a Variety Studio interview.

“Like, you probably won’t get [Season 3] until sometime in 2019. But also part of the thing is, like any good thing, they need time. And those guys work so hard. I mean, they just sit in their apartment and write for 12, 14 hours a day.”

Next year will be a dark, liminal time for fandom. Everyone waiting to see who ends up on top in the final season of HBO's Game of Thronesis also probably out of luck, as star Sophie Turner let it slip in an interview that Season 8 probably won't be ready next year either.

So, we can look at this one of two ways: 2018 will be a frustrating purgatory for TV watchers everywhere, or 2019 will be extra special. Sitting here in 2017, it's hard to look on the bright side. Hopefully we can get back to the Upside Down sooner, rather than later.
