Pretty sad when West end theatres need to have TV and film adaptions/spin offs to stay afloat. You liked the TV show? Now go and see it with a bunch of worse, shouty actors, unconvincing sets and painful seats at £100 a ticket. Bargain.

A bit of a (very vague) tease for season five.

There's also a spinoff in the works.

The rewatch confirmed my initial impressions. Season 1 is a great start but really lives on the nostalgia in a way that's more cloying than the rest of the seasons. Winona's crying a lot and that's not fun. It all feels a bit serious. Season 2 is a step up. Steve becoming a major player and teaming up with Dustin was a masterstroke. It's the Aliens of the series. Bigger and with more killable monsters. Huge soft spot for Season 3. May be the best season. I love the lighter tone on this one. Loses some points for how ridiculously easy it is to move around that super secret Russian base. Season 4 could have gone full parody but instead takes a welcome u-turn into horror. Beginning to wallow in itself a bit maybe but they've kind of earnt it at this point so I'll allow it.

That last 2 hour 20 episode was a bit of an endurance test, frankly a little too much of a good thing. It got a touch Marvel there for a bit with people throwing each other into walls.
Interesting spot to leave it on. Not too sure how they pick it up from there particularly given there's talk of a time jump between seasons to account for the aging teens.

We have the last episode to to... and it's two and a half hours? haha. The episodes this season definitely were longer than what came before. I've been enjoying it so no complaining but each one is movie length.

I'm still enjoying this season. We're on the last episode of season four that's posted. We'll be done just in time for the last two episodes to be available.

Mild spoiler I guess?
It was kind of cool seeing Robert Englund show up in this.

Watched the first episode last night and thought it was decent. I hope Ivy gets a nice royalty check for Teenage Werewolf and Fever working their way onto the soundtrack.

Four episodes in and not feeling it, but I'm glad folks are enjoying it.
