    Still the greatest TV show of all time. While certain episodes and story elements are SLIGHTLY weaker than in the first season, this is still amazing in nearly all of the ways the first season was. Max is a great addiction to the series, and her dynamic with Billy works well. Overall, this could have ended the show, and I would have been happy.

    Perhaps the best of the seasons produced so far. The second season of Stranger Things is an even better season than the original, and if there's one thing that's harder than reconfirming, it's improving.

    This is a good continuation of the first season of Stranger Things. I love the way the authors tell this story.

    As with last year’s introductory season, a Spielbergian sense of wonder and a John Hughes-like knack for underage anthropology invigorate the show’s approach to scary science-fiction.

    Stranger Things 2 ultimately feels less like a cash in on the success of the first season and more like its narrative complement, allowing the creators to fully explore the ramifications of the world they created.

    All in all, Stranger Things season 2 is ultimately more of the same, but still a very worthy sequel, which is good news for those of us (like me) who only hoped for the Duffer Brothers to manage to carry through the success of the original run with an affecting, and believable, continuation of the story.
