Chapter Six: The Dive

Another great episode with one hell of a cliffhanger ending! Not much leaves me lost for words, but I genuinely can't think straight right now. Not going to do a long review because I NEED to watch this next episode right now!

This season has been fantastic. You can feel the tension and mystery about Vecna and El's past rising in this episode. Episode 4 has been my favorite so far and I really hope the part 1 finale can top that. This episode was not that far off in terms of overall quality than episode 4. Not my favourite but still pretty close. I have been hooked every episode and this does the job as well. Like all episodes (except the first episode which was slow) this had a great opener, middle part and ending. Thoroughly entertaining. Not one moment I felt bored. The episode was very intriguing. I wanna watch the part 1 finale right away but I have been watching this all night and it's morning now. So saving the finale for tomorrow. The duffer brothers and Netflix went all out this season with an hour and twenty minute long episodes. Only episode 2 felt too long to me, the rest of the episodes I enjoyed this length. I have heard the final two episodes are movie length which is just amazing. How they can keep you hooked for this long is amazing. In many long episodes (for other series) sometimes get bored due to unnecessary scenes which do not progress the story forward or around it. In stranger things 4 I have not found these sort of scenes. Every scene revolves around the story or progresses it forward. Every episode has been consistent with top quality and storytelling. This season has been a masterclass so far. And I'm grateful that I'm watching such incredible television. So far the most entertaining Stranger Things season. I have never given these many 9's and 10's. May be Westworld season 1 and true detective season 1 lol. Another 9/10 from me.

The episode is pretty much closing in on the season's climax and you can feel it to with the sense of suspense and tension that it raises ever so slowly.

I like how episode by episode a new situation or problem emerges that the group(s) have to find a solution to get passed. Not only does make it interesting but it builds chemistry between the characters and this is the point in the season where they have the opportunity to do that before the end.

This is no different than the last episode and to be honest I can kind of think the nina project is slightly better than the dive but overall this is a solid episode.

This is the most charismatic and fun episode in the whole season. LOVE the reintroduction of Susie (I was expecting to never see her again). The full revelation of Hopper's storyline with Antonov is so satisfying, and Murray absolutely carries the comic relief.

Another top notch episode again.

This season may just be the best one yet for me, as the show continuously proves that it knows its strengths and is able to execute its storylines in the best possible way. It also proves that it is capable of combining many different genres of film/tv in its storylines.

In this episode, the plotline in Hawkins shines the most in my opinion, and had me very tense, intrigued, and glued to my tv. I can't wait to watch the next one, but am so bummed that we'll have to wait a couple of weeks for the last two!
