‘Stranger’ is right there in the series’ title, and it would be stronger by branching into strangeness in more than just its monsters.” “Overall, the new season has a stronger character focus, and some of the supporting roles from Season 1 are fleshed out to great effect, particularly Lucas, Dustin and Steve (Joe Keery), who may end up being the fan-favorite breakout of the year (sorry, Barb)… Season 2 is still a mostly satisfying binge-watch that makes good use of a talented multi-generational cast and an intriguing mythology. The first season’s epilogue left me with no interest in returning to this world, yet I had an enormous smile on my face for a lot of the new episodes, and particularly the last two, which turn out to be a tighter and more exciting climax than we got last time around.” “The whole thing could very easily fall prey to all the worst symptoms of sequelitis, but despite some bumps along the way - one bad storytelling choice in particular - ‘Stranger Things 2’ largely justifies its existence. The good news is, the show’s core cast remains an extremely versatile and effective ensemble, and once the story kicks into a higher gear about halfway through the nine-episode season, a lot of the old magic returns.” “Until ‘Stranger Things 2’ really gets going - and that takes a while - it trails an air of self-consciousness that veers into strained fan service at times.
Here’s what the critics are saying about the new season: Life seems to return to normal for the young heroes - however, Will coughs up a black, worm-like creature into his sink, indicating that he’s not out of the woods yet. Unfortunately, their psychic friend and ex-government lab rat Eleven vanishes while protecting her friends from the monstrous Demogorgon, leaving audiences to wonder if she died or was sucked into the Upside Down. Currently at 96% with 23 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, “Stranger Things” seems to have captured the same spooky magic in its sophomore season.įor those who need a recap, here’s where the first season left off ( spoiler alert!): Mike, Lucas, and Dustin successfully brought their friend Will back from the alternate dimension known as the Upside Down. The show took 2016 by storm, drawing audiences in with its ’80s nostalgia, lovable cast, and eerie story, and fans have waited for more than a year to binge watch their way back to Hawkins, Ind. I’d like to think the writers were in a giving mood and truly did share them with us, but it’ll be a while before we get official confirmation.As Halloween draws near, so does the debut of the second season of Netflix’s “ Stranger Things.” Will it live up to the hype after Season 1 ended up becoming a surprise hit? Whether or not these titles are the real deal is yet to be seen. These titles sound more or less in line with quirky titles like season 2’s “MADMAX” or “Trick or Treat, Freak” but out of step with more serious titles like season 1’s “The Vanishing of Will Byers” or season 3’s “The Battle of Starcourt.”
Okay, I’m starting to feel like these guys are messing with us! Although there’s no way to know for sure.
So maybe there’s some sort of countdown and they don’t make it in time. Clock an actual character? Or are they referring to an actual clock? Maybe the group is competing against time to complete a mission, or even better yet, they could be traveling back in time, perhaps to save Sheriff Hopper? Meanwhile, “You Snooze You Lose” sounds like it could relate to a clock, maybe one with an alarm that doesn’t go off. Clock” and Episode 3 is “You Snooze You Lose.” Maybe.
