- mike is wearing glasses in the flash forward but he has never needed glasses?
- after robin and will’s conversation of avalanches and playful shoves and tammy, we didnt even get a one on one of mike and will
- mike never saw kali (008) get shot. how does he know that’s what happened during his fake el death story?
- how did mike communicate with el in the void? el didn’t have water and mike had no ties to the hive mind.
- did joyce and hopper just never remember they went to school with henry? what is the purpose of making a point of showing joyce and henry interact in hs if it’s never recalled?
- if it’s a hive mind and all the vines and everything died with vecna, why didn’t will?
- how did will snap all of the demos and didnt pass out or have some sort of physical reaction besides a nose bleed?

- the end of season 4 shows the upside down coming through hawkins. did not a single citizen see it? they all believed it was an earthquake.

- why are the graduation gowns orange when the school has never used those colors?
- what happened to barb? we don’t see her get killed, she was pulled off screen like the kids? the demos don’t just kill someone like that.

- how and why did the upside down freeze?
- how did el recognize will in s1 if they never met? (to our knowledge)
- why did nancy see mike getting killed by vecna in s4?

- will liked “getting lost in the woods”? (per his coming out scene)
- how did dustin get valedictorian if he was absent fighting the upside down and getting in fist fights?
- will’s coming out scene had WAY too many people AND no way not a single person didnt make some kind of homophobic comment.
- what happened to the grandfather clock/what was the significance?
and last but certainly not least
- the entire show was made for outcasts. for losers. for freaks. the first two seasons (even the third a little bit) had the stereotypical 80s nerd vibe. halfway through s3, you can tell it was being made for the general public.
i’m sure there’s more but that’s what i have.
