Also I bloody hate the Jonathan/Nancy/Steve triangle.

I hate love triangles in any shows, but this one is even worse because I really like Steve as a character like he's smurfing great and sorry but Jonathan is not as cool OKAY.
Steve is the best character in the god damn show.
Steve is smurfing great. Tbh, I'm glad they flipped the "popular, rich dude is an ass" trope on its head. There's nothing wrong with Jonathan and he's a nice and cool dude, but he didn't get the girl and doesn't deserve to. Frankly, Steve deserves a lot better, though. And I say that as one of the rare people who actually likes Nance.

Through Episode 5

Thoughts so far:
  • The reveal of what happened to Eleven after season 1 (She was in the Upside Down for 10 minutes!!!) was pretty anti-climactic for me.
  • I'm glad Lucas is much less of a little asshole this season, and even though Mike is my favorite character, it was A++ seeing Lucas call him out for his low-key racism in the Halloween episode.
  • Max is great and Mike is being a total trouthead to her. I wanna know what her and her stepbrother's deal is, though.
  • GODDAMNIT DUSTIN YOU HELPED GROW ANOTHER DEMOGORGON YOU LITTLE SMURFER GG RIP MEW MEW




Denmark and I will be finishing up the season this afternoon, so I'll post my thoughts as I go (maybe) and post my final thoughts after.
