Episode 7 did feel like a different show. It wasn't bad, it just felt out of place, especially after Kali's lead-in in S2-1. I was expecting more from that. And it wasn't really
needed, as it seems the only take-away was Eleven/Jane discovering where her home truly was.
Again, not bad, just out of place. And considering how much they put into it, I would expect to see Kali and Crew more in S3. The best take-away from 7 was her hair-do!
I really liked this and watched in all in one day. Just like Season 1. It didn't have the 'chills' of the first season as we are well aware now of the demogorgons, but it was still very entertaining. The
Feels still exist for the whole crew, including the new-comers.
[BLACKOUT]I liked Max a lot, and I could see why Mike would have problems, not with her personally, but with just another girl trying to join the crew, when he's still missing Elle. Her step-brother is a dick, but then seeing how he is treated by his father, it explains - if not excuses - his attitude. We'll see where he goes in S3, but Max certainly laid down the law - as well as the bat! That was cool!
The only thing I didn't like about this season, was the lack of Eleven being with the team. I was hoping it wouldn't take too long for her to return, but instead they waited until the second to last episode!
Grrrr. I would have loved to have seen her go out on Halloween. That could have been a trip!
All the rest are great, but Eleven - or Jane now - is a highlight, and not having them all together made it feel a little off. But, over and done until next year... The only major downside to streaming the whole season at once. [/BLACKOUT]
