There were parts of season 3 of Stranger Things that I really enjoyed and loved, but there were a lot (honestly, probably more) that I didn’t like. And that’s ok, that’s what happens with a show. But here are a few things I’m disappointed about (spoilers ahead!)
s2 was byeler central, s3 had pretty much none of that, they were just fighting
s2 was Will focused, and then he pretty much disappeared/had no role in s3
Max and Mike still fighting was kind of irritating - I want the party to be friends!
Dustin spending no time with the party
The ‘it’s not my fault you don’t like girls’ line never being addressed again
Eleven’s whole character felt really off?? just really incorrect
The tone of the whole season felt different to the tone of s1 and s2 which was weird
Max suddenly being Billy’s really close sibling? What was up with that? She went from threatening him with a bat to what we see in s3
Such a random thing but I felt bad for the rest of Hawkins they just got a cool new mall and now that’s destroyed oops
Don’t think it explained why Mayor Kline worked with the Russians in the first place? I know they said it was for land grants but... why? Why was there a mayor suddenly anyway?
The cliff hanger scene felt like it was trying to mix s1 (demogorgon) with what we literally just saw (russians), so I was confused as to where s4 (if there is one) could even go
Those are, I think, the main things that had me feeling a bit iffy about season 3. I thoroughly enjoyed it, but I think I personally preferred season 2 overall.Â
