Stranger Things Season 3
« on: July 20, 2019, 11:04:05 AM »
I enjoyed it, probably better than season 2 actually.

First, they hit the ground running. There's maybe 2 episodes of build-up then it's just pure action for the remainder of the series. I'm OK with this because we've had 2 seasons of slow build-up.. do we really need to spend 5 or 6 episodes trying to figure out what's going on.. again? No.

The characters have also grown quite a bit and it's fun just watching them do whatever. Sure a few aspects of the plot are completely unbelievable to the point of being ridiculous but it's a show about monsters from another dimension, I'm not going to worry about it too much.

Bottom line.. had a lot of fun with this, definitely the best thing on Netflix.

Thank you for no spoilers, I am looking forward to seeing it. Will try and binge a few at a time as time allows. 1st two seasons were fun to watch for sure and I know this one will be too now.

Season 3 was my favorite season.  Lots of action throughout.  The last 15 minutes of the last episode was meh but they made up for it with the extra scene during the closing credits.

I've only watched the first half (4 episodes) so far, and yeah, it's pretty fast-paced this season.

I think next season is supposed to be the last one. Hope they can wrap it up well. Bring back Barb as the final boss.

It's not going to redefine the show for you, so if you didn't like previous seasons you probably won't like this one.. but the pacing is a lot more 'aggressive' so there's that.

Overall I think it's a fun series.
