I take exterior illumination very seriously.

All I think of when I see Christmas lights is that damn show now.

But if a bulb was dead wouldn't the strand not light up?

Only if they’re run in series. If they’re run in parallel the rest of the lights will stay lit. Most modern lights are in parallel now.
LED strands of light up regardless if one bulb is out.
Ah, fair enough, guess I've not messed with an LED strand.
