Some people are going to love season 2....some people will strongly hate it. Its not like season 1 and kids definitely went from charming to how do i put it...overbearingly early teen.

let me know what you think about ep 7 when you get there.
I may have to avoid this thread for a while. I'm not a binge-watcher and like having anticipation between each episode. Therefore, the plan is to watch one episode a week (which will hopefully help with the next 1+ year wait for Season 3).
I hope i get a chance to watch it before too many spoilers are on my feed. Fun fact, they shoot a lot of the show literally around the corner from my house. I live in a very outdated area....

Done. I only partially enjoyed season 1, and found season 2 marginally more enjoyable despite its issues. A lot of my problems the first season had become a bit more clear now that the nostalgic veneer has worn a bit, but they fixed a couple of things that I hated. Namely, Steve.
That said, this season was bloated as hell.

There were a lot of unnecessary storylines this season (Ep 7 really) and though they fix some characters they ruined others for most the season.

Oh my god, episode 7 was so unnecessary. And really, Dustin was the only character I actually liked last season (not counting Eleven because duh). This season I actually liked Dustin, Steve, Max, and Nancy and Lucus got slight enjoyment bumps. There’s just so many logic gaps across the entire series.
Dustin's dialogue became a little too tryhard for humour this season which took away from the heart of his character. I definitely agree with Steve, Lucas, and Nancy being a lot more enjoyable this season than last season with the best performance in the series coming from Will but the others seem to have a harder time performance wise this season and it is evident in certain scenes.
We have two episodes left and we love it so far. Some in our watching group have even gone so far as to say "better than season 1". I don't agree with that statement.
It reminds me of the GotG vs GotG Vol. 2 debate about which is better, all a matter of personal preference.

I don't know about y'all, but something shady about that mall..perhaps it's that there isn't a toy store of some kind?
I don't know how many of you reading this were sentient in 1985, but the level of detail in that new mall video is scary accurate.

I’m glad to see Steve get a job to support the kids.

This came out like 2 days ago but here’s the first “teaser” for season 3. Just the episode titles.
I wouldn't read too much into those. When they announced the titles for Season 2, most of them ended up being fake.
