Billy is a bigger psycho than ever, but for once it’s not his fault. Plus, Lucas plays Love Doctor, Robin questions how many children Steve is friends with, and the exploding rats are adding to Hawkins’ monster problem.
This is a shockingly good season of TV that surpassed all expectations—even as it blew through plot faster than I used to blow through my allowance at the comic book store. Plus, the Fireflies are clowns, humans are scarier than Clickers, and paying attention to this review is how we show love.
Summer arrives in Hawkins, and girlfriends and science camp cause the boys to start drifting apart. Plus, Steve forgets how to talk to girls, Hopper forgets how to act like a human, and rats are exploding!
Season 2 is a little heavy on the table-setting, but there’s no shortage of action at the end. Plus, an army of darkness terrorizes Hawkins, a king finally emerges, and the season is highlighted by a surprising MVP.
Another episode, another rampage from Joel. Plus, we discover the origin of Ellie’s immunity, find out the truth about Joel’s scar, and get a front-row seat to the Fireflies’ appalling incompetence.
We close Season 2 with an epic battle against the Mind Flayer. Plus, Will gets an exorcism, the “King” finally makes an appearance, and Dustin gets the thrill of his life.
Hawkins Lab is under siege by Dart and his buddies. Plus, Bob Newby (Superhero) speaks BASIC, the Shadow Monster gets a creepy new D&D name, and the reunion we’ve been waiting for all season doesn’t disappoint.
As Ellie struggles to keep Joel alive, we meet our most twisted villain yet. Plus, broken fingers, popped-off kneecaps, and never trust a preacher in an apocalypse.
We interrupt our amazing story for this completely unnecessary diversion. Plus, El finds her “sister,” gets an emo makeover, and is forced to deal with an unwanted vision.
