S3 of Stranger Things was so bad I went from liking & having emotional attachment to the show to not like caring at all anymore. I could have written such a better S3 going off just the planted plot threads from seasons 1&2 (especially s1) like you had so much to work with why was it that level of badly done rip.
#& i would rewrite it for fun as a fic if i cared enough & had time but like...my exhaustion for the show & fandom is so high#it outweighs my personal enjoyment or interest in putting an idea to paper instead of just enjoying it internally or word vommiting it @ my#friends & fam too 🤷🏻‍♀️#stranger things 3#stranger things#it was so bad. the sudden stanming of the US govt in 2018 when theyd been the badguys the past 2 seasons. introducing saturday morning#cartoon evil russians instead. OOC police brutality king Hopper publicly condoned by the script for his actions & shipped woth Joyce /while/#being an entitled & jealous & violent asshole to her constantly. lowkey abusive to mike & el. & racist to Alexi#Jonathan & Nancy both have good points about the other not understanding their personal struggles (poor/girl—boyo cannot afford to lose#income & yet Nance wont even quit ruining his darkroom photos when asked & also doesnt even /pause/ to consider his needs when on her#personal quest—Nancy having to real w ramapnt sexism & Jonathan not seeing/being there & not understanding how awful it is for her)#but instead of following & validating both storylines the show only gives Audience Nancy’s POV bc they aint gave a shit abt Jonathan since#s1. Hes the only one who even like apologizes. rip. you got charicatire Maury you got racist shithead abuser billy suddenly being wildly#loved by fandom when he got the ugliest hair ever created & 0 redeeming features but ppl love to include bad dad & white boy as world’s most#redeeming qualities. and then when they decide to give him a redemption arc. instead of like. unknow. doing it through his sister? literally#the only character that would make any sense? he doesnt even hesitate for finale ep Max & turncoats bc Eleven says ‘Ur mom pretty’ like wtf#thats literally the redemption arc they give him. thats fkn it. bc the show also aint give a shit about anyone outside the Steve team or its#main ship parrings & Max aint important to them anymore but el is so El gets the redemption moment w Billy that makes 0% sense#we got the show making time for Erika to bash communism & promote capitalism on screen? but we aint got time to give Will one GD character#moment after wrecking his house. suddenly everyone is an asshole & we gonna let the cast use homophobic slurs but never gonna /actually/#canonn say Will is anything but straight we just gonna *cough cough pointed look* ok i see how it is#suddenly well developed mindflayer posession monster is...a...pile of gore? for no reason? we also aint supposed to give a fk about the 200#citizens that get turned to gore bc our protags make it? & somehow life goes back to normal? in a SMALL TOWN?? after THAT MANY unexplained#vanishings? lol okaaaay sure sweaty. GOD why it developed so BAD. love that nobody outside Scoops Troop gets to have a relationship unless#they might end up fuckin & the only reason Scoops Troop aint that way is Robin’s actress /forced/ them to make her character gay—she was#scriped to date Steve. Like aint the Duffer /Brothers/ wrote this? can we PLEASE get like—ANY of the sibling relationships like 10 minutes#of gd center stage screentime? no. okay... ANYWAY.
