    Wrong character, @mickeyrat

    You're referring to Will; we were referring to Mike.

    I don't know what criticisms others have. But for me regarding season 3, I think Mike and Lucas are two of the most annoying television characters I've ever seen, most attempts at comedy fell flat (especially anything related to the new character Robin), and Hopper was just a little "off" to me this season. Not sure how to explain it. He just seemed different than the first two seasons. Way less likeable. 

    Minor nitpicks aside though, I've enjoyed all three seasons and watched them through twice. I particularly liked that season 3 went full-on 80's by making Russians the bad guys. But despite two viewings, I'm still not sure exactly what those Russians were trying to do. But that's the 80's: Russians being evil for the sake of being evil Russians. 
    Lucas' sister was more entertaining than Lucas.

    And I just assume the Russians were trying to somehow use that stuff for their own benefit to win the cold war or something.

    The first two seasons had some Bechdel test fails. The second season, the female characters, including the children, seemingly had to wind up with male romantic partners. And the story behind the way Sadie Sink (Max) was blindsided by the Duffers to kiss Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas) is pretty shitty -- even if she later said it was fine.
    I've never heard of a the Bechdel test before. So it has to have these rules to pass?
    1. It has to have at least two [named] women in it
    2. Who talk to each other
    3. About something besides a man

    This is sort of a horse shit litmus test, though, no? Why would a movie/tv show have to have this? Especially a show based around a bunch of nerdy teenage boys who are awkward around girls?

    Is there an opposite kind of test for male actors too? Unless I am missing something this seems stupid.

    I think it just speaks to dumb writing for female characters

    Finally finished S3 this weekend. I felt this season was up and down compared to seasons 1 & 2 but they really nailed the finale. Man, when Hopper nodded was tough.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Just finished season 3
    thought it was horrible compared to the first two
    seemed to be more “campy”
    lowlights:
    Steve and his nerdiness, and sailor uniform 
    the “terminator “ Russian
    Lucas’s sister
    taking the time to sing TNES song before giving the code
    will be interesting to see if they can pull off a season 4

    ^ Agreed with this. The cheesy singing was cringe worthy. Hope it rebounds in season 4

    Not watching it yet but did Eleven get married?  Do the other boys go off to college?

    Considering they were kids then teens and it seems like 4 years has passed.  This will be interesting.
