Summing up the highs and lows of a fun but uneven StrangerThings
always gets its nostalgia stuff right. For those who grew up at a time of mall rats and summers spent at the community pool without smart phones and social media, the new season delivered.The Byers family has always been the emotional core of. And yet, in Season Three, they could not catch a decent storyline for love nor money.
Still, Joyce got more of a story than poor Jonathan, the forgotten son. Joyce doesn’t seem to care that Nancy is sleeping over, that Jonathan is ok once the monster appears, and doesn’t even look for him in the chaos of the mall being attacked. Jonathan and Nancy had their own newspaper adventure but it was small potatoes compared to what the other groups got up to. The Byers moving was, ultimately best for them in a town and a writing staff that seems to have largely forgotten they exist.
The same was true with Erica, Lucas’ brilliant little sister who was introduced briefly last season . Even though she was given much more to do this season, the show didn’t overplay its hand with her. Erica’s sass augmented the story, but she never became cartoonish. Also, her bonding time with Dustin over her secretly being a nerd was very cute.
Finally, we pour one out to Alexei, a character who also didn’t need to die. He made for a traditionally funny “Soviet in the west” type who had to pantomime with Joyce to be understood. But even when Murray showed up and translated, the humor then just turned to Alexei’s sarcasm and love of slushies . Dosvedanya, comrade.make Billy, one of its thinnest Season Two characters, into the primary vessel for the mini-Mind Flayer in Season Three.
With as much time as the series devoted to its final battle, there certainly could have been some consideration given to the fact that people in town were disappearing en masse to be turned into goo.
