Ok - Just finished it last night.
I was about to quit after EP1, then watched 2,3 and 4 in one go. 5 & 6 in another night and then finally 7,8 and 9.
I didn't mind episode 7. It was a bit weird, but I thought it was OK. Also I wasn't aware of episode 9, so while watching episode 8, I was constantly thinking "how the hell will this end".
Best bits:
- Seeing the cast grow up
- New characters Max & Bob
- Posessed-Will
- Snowball dance
- That 80's vibe. I need more!
OK bits:
- Eleven's mom. So she's adopted by Hopper now, but she knows she has a mom, who by the way has been fighting to get her back? How does that work.
- Max's step brother. Don't even remember his name. Smoking while working out. Oh the edge. The part with Mrs. Wheeler was cool though. They should have let him smoke in the shower.
Ugh bits:
- Bob
- Why did Hopper have a box of confidential information stacked underneath the floor of his dad's cabin?
- Wynoda has a couple of those "ok, watch me act" moments. Seems fake sometimes.
Edit:
I also tried watching "Beyond Stranger Things"

but that was the ultimate cringefest for me.
