I feel like all the relationship are so bad this season like Joyce and Hopper are giving me nothing and I use to love them. Jonathan and Nancy I'm very confused if the un-proposal was a break up or them trying to start over or a way to fix their relationship. Than Vickie and Robin (i didn't rewatch so I don't remember if I liked their chemistry in s4) but this season gave nothing and I theyre relationship is falling really flat. I would've rather Robin and Nancy just randomly being in a relationship this season i loved their scene when they went undercover together it was everything. I also know the reason the relationship is falling flat is because everything is so rushed and theres just way too much action this season and jumping form one thing to another.
But I was actually so over Vickie when she accused Robin of being an addict, that actually pissed me off so bad like I would've broken up with her cuz I'm not about to be called an addict by someone I'm in a relationship with. Also shes a "nurse" she should know by now the signs of withdrawal and especially from the drugs she was accusing Robin of stealing. Also did she call the military on Robin😭😭 I'm confused if it was Vickie or she told a coworker and they called.
Than Holly calling out to Nacny was so badly written because Holly had no way of knowing that Nancy was in the upside down. Nancy nor the others where in eye sight of Holly to make that assumption. Her actor is a great actor tho and aside from everyone else excluding Lucas, Erica, and the other kids this season they're acting was so good.
The glorification of Eddie pissss me off like it didn't use to but like he really isn't all that for such a big hype that he gets in the Fandom. Like the gang only knew him for like 2 weeks maybe a month and Dustin acting like he lost his brother he knew from birth. Like aside from watching Eddie die which is traumatic the way he was moving this season is actually crazy. When he fought Steve I thought he was possessed and that was going to be apart of the plot or something but it wasn't.
Mike & Eleven are so werid and should have never happened like the way Hopper let it continue whlie El was in his care is crazy because the girl can't even speak she's not about to have a boyfriend she doesn't even know how to say Vagina yet like this ship is so wrong. It grossed me out when they hugged cuz of the way El held Mike's head.
The back and forth between El speaking lies a toddler to speaking in full sentences was so annoying and the switch between part 1 and part 2 is crazy because part 1 El was flopping between the 1 and in part 2 I guess the writers got tired of that shit and just decided to have her speak like a normal person which thank God but It should've been done sooner.
There too much discussion focused on Bryler and not the actual show ans that pisses me off that fans are saying they were queer baited when that very obviously did not happen Mike stopped paying attention to Will after season 1 Eleven was his main focus. I do think the writers made Will's whole arc being gay a fundamental part of why fans think they were being queer baited because nothing about Mike and Will's interactions gave romantic aside form it being Will who had romantic feelings.
The coming out scene was just as bad as everyone's acting. It gave pick me sorry not sorry.
They need to settle of Elevens name is she gonna go by Jane or Eleven but I feel like the choice has already been made for her like she didn't get to pick fr.
The Kali hate is so overrated I think it's because shes POC but who knows. She was so right with what she told El the project will once again be picked up or restarted no matter what theh do even if they kill themselves Will would just become the new Henry if they find out he also has powers. I wonder is each of the other 10 subjects had 7 different powers that Henry has because obviously Kali and El have different powers with El being able to find people, abd Kali being able to project a certain reality or memory to a person. So what where the other 7 powers.
This rant is sorta of over i have more
