Stranger Things’ second season not only presents a serious new villain, and more complicated characters but also finds a way to make minor characters more relevant.
Unlike a lot of shows, Stranger Things: Season 2 ends with giving you something to get hyped about, a bit of fan service, and presenting a calm before the storm.
Things get as bad as the last episode would make you think as you find yourself wondering how will the people of Hawkins, not just the cast, survive?
It’s a completely Eleven (Jane) focused episode and honestly, it makes you wish they mixed in the other cast members.
The first major battle goes down against the shadow monster’s babies as new relationships, romantic and platonic, form.
As three new people learn the truth of what happened last year and now, there comes the question of who will suffer the consequences.
As Eleven shows she cannot be tamed or punished, Will reveals his truth and Nancy seeks to expose Hawkins’ Labs.
As Will continues to deal with his ability to go to the Upside Down, Dustin discovers what came out of Will last year. Alongside that, Eleven meets Max.
As Will confides in Mike, and Nancy gets tired of everyone acting like Barbara isn’t gone, something is afoot with the local plant life.
The boys are back and there is a new girl who may tear them apart. That is, if this thing Will sees doesn’t get to them first.
And so Season 1 comes to an end with a few touching moments but some eyebrow-raising events and a sacrifice.
The penultimate episode of the season brings us one step closer to Will possibly being saved. But, with the way he looks, it seems time is running out.
As Hopper and Joyce meet Terry Ives, Dustin and Mike go on a search for Eleven. Also, Jonathan and Nancy grow closer.
It’s the day of Will’s funeral and while the fake body is being put into the ground, the search for the real Will intensifies.
While one missing person we are given some hope for, it doesn’t look good for the other one at all.
The truth about Eleven lurks about as something is contacting Joyce through lights.
As Eleven begins to freak-out Lucas and Dustin, the search for Will leads to weird situations. All the while, Nancy might lose more than her virginity.
Stranger Things begins with an odd monster lurking about a small town. One in no way prepared for its otherworldly powers.
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
