Yea I can't fault them for being kids. But that beyond episode thing is awful. Thanks Hardwick for making this kind of show something that all networks think the fans want.

Watch Beyond Stranger Things and you have it.

Thanks for the tip. Yes, I can see that being very annoying. The nice thing about only watching them in the show is that they are following a script. I don't need to see their real personalities.

They have personalities?

Wife and I watched half of the last episode of BST and it wasn't great. Natalia Dyer was in a backless prom dress and everyone else was just chilling out in street clothes, it was weird.

Which one of those kids is doing coke in the viper room?

Natalia Dyer was in a backless prom dress

She looks way better on the show, IMO. Kinda looks sickly in her public appearances, methinks.

i learned from reddit that you are not allowed to theorize that she has an eating disorder - which is one of the safest bets in vegas

Especially on Reddit

That cast is up on their untouchable list of deities. Although that changes on a dime, as the fall of Nye and Tyson have shown

reddit is so weird. half of the subs are dedicated to making fun of people, but it's also a place where negativity and bullying will not be tolerated.

Bob dies

I was dying to read thru this thread but didn't start watching until a few weeks ago. I was deep into S2 and thought I had to be in the clear for at least page 1, and this is the 2nd post in the thread

Some people have too much time on their hands:

The lab seems way too close to the town proper.

Also, if I had to pick a biggest gripe with this show, it would be the fact that somehow no one else in this decent-sized town has any idea what's going on. Odds are there would have been a pretty good panic in town by now, or the dog things (already forgot their name) would have been in a more densely populated area, with more witnesses.

I finally got around to watching season 2 and want to read through this thread, but first...

Loved the finale. The feels... Ouch.

I hated everything with Eleven up until that last episode. If they bring back her "sister" and the others as some sort of super hero gang in season 3, I might stop watching. Loathed all of that nonsense.

Everything else, I liked. I hope Mike is less brooding now. Steve and Dustin are my favorite characters.

Postby **shafnutz05** » Sun Jul 22, 2018 7:25 pm

Yes, Eleven's arc was not great last season. I honestly have gotten to the point that her parts of the show are my least favorite, despite the borderline creepy internet love affair with her

Postby **AuthorTony** » Sun Jul 22, 2018 7:43 pm

I'm definitely bored with her.

Paul Reiser was fantastic

According to Cindy Holland, Netflix’s VP of Original Content, the third season of Stranger Things, set in 1985, won’t be premiering until next summer, and for a good reason: the Duffer Brothers want it to be better, and larger, than the last one.

Postby **dodint** » Mon Jul 30, 2018 1:41 pm

This will be like Pretty Little Liars where the high school kids are in their 30s.

Postby **Freddy Rumsen** » Mon Jul 30, 2018 1:46 pm

That blows

Postby **eddy** » Mon Jul 30, 2018 2:00 pm

That's a little surprising, because I feel like a lot of the time, Netflix likes binge over story. I'm glad they are waiting and trying to do something better with a story

Postby **Viva la Ben** » Mon Jul 30, 2018 2:21 pm

They are probably expanding eleven’s sister arc.

Shut your mouth.

Postby **AuthorTony** » Mon Jul 30, 2018 2:41 pm

"Larger" scares me a little. I don't want a spectacle show at the expense of the characters.
