    I didn’t know this show was still going. I got bored after El moved away or whatever. Worth jumping into? I was originally in it for Winona Ryder and the 80s vibes. Oh and also Samwise Gamgee 😝

      I thought season 4 was actually decent enough. At least better than the two seasons that preceded it.

      But I’ll say the same thing that I said back when season 2 was announced: it should’ve been an anthology series. Introduce a new cast and new location each season. Keep the 80’s, keep the general pretense of the upside-down even, but change it up each time to keep it from getting stale.

      The fourth season is the second best of the lot (the first one obviously being the best).

          Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted just for that reasonable opinion, especially in a thread discussing concerns about a potentially negative reaction to season 5.

          If season 5 doesn’t deliver, then season 4 being decent isn’t worth anything anyways. Why don’t we all wait to see how the thing ends before telling people they’re wrong for not being invested in it?

            I mean a good season is still a good season. If season 5 turns out to be terrible, you can just say that the series ends at season 4.

            Yes, there is a setup of future seasons after season 4, but it’s not like Game of Thrones where it’s been setup with tons of mystery for multiple seasons. It’s a new bad guy last season, he was technically sorta involved with the previous seasons. They good guys will win and some characters will sacrifice themselves. There isn’t a big mystery.

            Plus, it’s infuriating to come into these threads and see so many comments of people saying they haven’t watched the show in 2-3 seasons. Great. Your opinion means nothing. You can’t have a reasonable opinion about season 5 if you haven’t seen the seasons before it.
