Season was great. One more season of maybe 10 episodes (instead of two seasons) would be about perfect. We need more info about the upside down. Hopper was an rear end in a top hat about 11 and mike, but mike was being a brat. It was a classic version of the scene, but not a feminist or modern take. Also, while it’s cool a certain character was gay, I want them to be bi, because they ship really well, and frankly, there aren’t enough bi characters out there.

Just make her bi, and will gay and have a young boyfriend next season.

Sounds like they should just smoke a nice, cool refreshing cigarette and calm down

I’m a non smoker and I barely noticed smoking this season. But then again I didn’t mind the product placement and thought it was funny.

Netflix is still giving us all the episodes faster than if they did a traditional weekly release schedule.

Also, there is still one more season after this.

Have they started on it? Because gently caress those kids aren’t getting any younger.

Eesh, I was already hesitant because of how little I liked season 3 but Gooey Pinhead seems like a stupid villain. In for a penny in for a pound though.

But season 3 is tied with one as best season? (2 is fine to good, but misfired with the back door pilot).

3 had the sheriff becoming weirdly abusive though and completely backpedal on most of his character development.

It didn’t. What it did do was have him partly backslide because he was on a hero’s journey, faced those fears, and by the end got better. A lot of shows properties do this poorly, (marvel) so when a good character makes mistakes to become better, it’s seen as a backpedal, when the reality is it’s more that media literacy has gone down with a majority of viewers for a host of reasons.

Also Tremors. They started flying in 3, IIRC.



Last of Us, HBO prestige poo poo, a bit over 10 mil an episode. It must cost a lot more to digitally de age young adults or something. Who could possibly care about this trashfire show from S2 on, it's so bad. One was good and should have been it's own thing, but nothing nice can ever not be run into the ground and the roadkill crammed down your throats until the grave.

Season 3 is great. This anti Robin slander is homophobic too. Watch yourself.

The final episode had a musical number while they ran away from a monster. The show always mixed horror with kids adventure, but that needle has gone way to one side now.

ignoring the very tense sauna fight that was straight Stephen King, the hospital, the rat poo poo everywhere. The musical bit was funny in the middle of a lot of tense poo poo, and made it better.

brevity makes a horror/coming of age/thriller a richer experience. if you want to go watch Saw or any other grim dark horror torture porn poo poo, go watch that. Stranger things has always been about 80's blockbuster feel. season 1 nailed it, season 2 almost nailed it but stumbled, and season 3 was a return to form.
