Re: Stranger Things

I finished watching the second season of Stranger Things, and I have two things I want to add to my original post. First: the seventh episode was brilliant and beautiful, and I loved it. The moral of the story is not to trust what men say about television shows about young women, especially when the characters of the young women in question are difficult and complicated. Second: the alien creatures get fed in the eighth episode, AND BOY DO THEY EVER. I think the viewer's response to one particularly grisly scene is supposed to be horror, but I was filled with contentment and satisfaction.

My three main ships are:
- Dustin Henderson and his monster pet Dart
- Steve Harrington and his nail-studded baseball bat
- Eleven's spiritual sister Kali Prasad and myself

My three favorite characters are:
- Lucas Sinclair's little sister Erica, who steals every scene that she's in
- Sam Owens, the head doctor/scientist who is in a difficult situation but has a good heart
- Nancy and Mike's mother Karen Wheeler, who reads romance novels in the bathtub and drinks too much and is frustrated with her shitty husband but loves and trusts her children unconditionally
