Finally a fresh face that brings a new interest to the team. Hope to see more of hasim in future episodes.
Finally a story with some real hard hitting drama not bogged down by the terribly cliche over-arching plot.
For someone who doesn't love the 80s nostalgia (probably as I was not alive for them!) I was pleasantly surprised to find myself quickly immersed by the set dress and of course the amazing soundtrack. The casting and acting is fantastic especially eleven and the kids (I was even able to overcome my Winona Ryder aversion). However, I wasn't hooked until the 3-4th episode and that was short lived. I soon became bored of the cheesy cliché storyline, especially anything involving the teenagers, and the nods toward classic scifi and horror took over; leaving the plot unoriginal. Though in all I enjoyed the classic story, I feel it was tired and nothing special or worth the hype surrounding it. There was no major character arcs and the audience was too many steps ahead of the cast...leaving me frustrated. In my opinion the best thing about the show is the opening credits.
