Only 2 episodes in, but the horror is fantastic and the new characters are likable. The budget is really showing.

The evil this time is like a mixture of Freddy Kruger and Jeepers Creepers.

I'm also two episodes in and enjoying it.

Especially when redacted redacted redacted with the redacted, that was more than a little satisfying, not gonna lie

(I wonder who can actually decipher what scene I'm referring to here, lol)

Lot better than I expected, saw the first couple episodes last night and plan on continuing tonight.

They do great casting for this series.

I actually don't love it after four episodes. I mean, the character interactions are still great, I like the new characters and there's some amazing individual moments, but it also feels like there's both a ton going on and also not much happening so far.

To be fair, the 4 episode mark is also only something like 1/3 of the way through the season given there's 9 episodes and they get longer near the end, so it could definitely come together and be great as a whole

Nah, whatever it is he was painting in the montage from Elevens letter is going to end up being important somehow. They even made it a point to have him holding the rolled up canvas when they meet up with Mike, like it wasnt enough of a Chekovs gun to begin with.

Im 4 episodes in. The last 10-minute stretch of 4 was really great. This might end up being my favorite season since the first one.

Though I do think there are way too many characters. And the Hopper in Russia storyline has been nothing but filler so far and it feels so disconnected to everything else.

Its just OK.

season 1 is leaps and bounds better than the other 3 and imo they havent really recaptured the magic of season 1.

its too many characters with too many plot points and arcs.

which is why each episode needed to be well over an hour.

Im pretty sure its just a painting thats related to his feelings for Will. He acted like he really wanted to show it to him when they met up but he chickened out at the last second. I dont think it has relevance to the actual supernatural stuff going on

Same. Episode 4 actually made me shed a tear at the end. Starting 5 now but this is fucking solid so far.

I plan on watching it but wanted to re-watch the first 3 seasons beforehand.

I just started season 2. I only watch a few episodes a week so it'll take me a few weeks before I get to season 4.

Interesting, I thought season 3 was much much better than season 2. Not as good as 1, but still solid.

I'd say it's worth going back to finish imo.

Just finished part 1 and honestly thought it was the most boring season so far. The last 2 episodes were the only good ones. There was just too much disjointed story going on. I enjoyed the Hopper parts. The 11 segments were always my least favorite and there was WAY too much of it this season but the pay off was pretty good. I think this season could have been condensed a lot more and part 2 wouldn't have been needed with so much of the filler.

I agree. I feel like Eleven's storyline dragged on for too long, but I see why it was needed because it was also one's storyline and we just didn't know it. I also felt like some characters did nothing so far and were just kind of there, like Jonathan. In fact, I didn't really like the California crew segments because it pulled away from the main story.

I did find it interesting how Eleven and Nancy's crew were dealing with two different versions of the same evil. Kind of like one team was facing Lord Voldemort while the other was facing Tom Riddle.

Don't know if it was because it's been so long between 3 and 4 but wasn't really feeling it at first and then something just... Clicked. I thought this season half has been great. Think they really nailed that 7th episode. Super excited for the next 3 episodes or whatever in a few weeks.

With as many subplots going on it kind of did. Its like Game of Thrones at this point, everybodys separated and on their own little adventure at this point trying to get back to each other It advance their own plot.

Episode 3 I thought was bad writing with 11. Im not a fan of Maxs one dimensional character either. Im on episode 4 now.

I get the feeling the writers had no idea where they were going to take the show after season 3 because this is essentially a new show this season and I think S4 is on the right track to what the show needed.

I'm halfway through and I'm absolutely loving it, way more than I thought I would.

But the main thing I'm thinking is.....everyone one of the main characters are hyper traumatized at this point. NONE of these people are gonna be able to live normal lives after all this.

El was already fucked up enough to commit felony assault with a skate in public and would have exploded the other kid's heads if she had her powers at the time. How is she gonna function after the events of this season. Hopper is literally being tortured in a gulag and likely got frostbite and had his leg broken, how's he gonna be involved in action or a relationship later? The kids are getting shot at and watching people die in vans. I don't see how this is gonna have a happy 90s ending.
