Finally finished it and it doesn’t have the same charm, freshness or magic as the first season. They also did Eddie dirty and the writing regarding what happened to him was so stupid.
I know it’s definitely not a popular opinion but I actually enjoyed seasons 3 and 4 more than 1 and 2 overall. For me, the season 4 stuff with Harbour, Ryder, etc dragged quite a bit, even with some good spots. But the stuff with Dustin, Lucas, Max, Steve, Nancy, Robin learning about Vecna and trying to help Eddie was some of the more compelling stuff I’ve seen on the series. As an 80s horror fan, I appreciated the Krueger allusions too.
Eleven’s story arc might have been a bit redundant at times but I thought it built really nicely to the end of episode 7 which was quite intense and episode 9 where you got the face off between her and Vecna.
At the end of the day, it got me amped for the final season. Too bad it’s a couple of years away.
