Chapter Six: The Dive

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!

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.

So many people complaining about tonal issues. Like, not everything needs to be 100% grimdark, guys. This show has always been an homage to 70's and 80's horror, which, last time I checked, is full of stupid, corny humor, intentional or not. Get over it.

Stranger Things has always been this way, and if you don't like it, well, why are you watching?

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.

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!
