I loved the Jonathan / Will brotherly love conversation they had.

and omg its bad enough they killed off Eddie , but now max is in a coma? this show is going to be the death of me

max's confession about billy and herself was heartbreaking.

eleven and will's reunion I thought was better than mike and her.

Yep so much emotions I was waiting to see who will die.

It was a good paced episode you honesty thought the kids had it .. but they didn't. This episode had less of the trio . Steve , Nancy and Robim but they did most of the season.

Poor Max she fought so much and El did help her as much as she could.. Max died than coming back but at what cost ?? Where is she El couldn't see her ???

Poor El so much pressure.. Her and Vecna fight was good and it was even I liked how they keep telling the story. It was him all along I like that he isn't officially dead .

Like the didn't win but they are together.. El and will was sweet but Hop and El was better ..

Also johnathan and nancy just break up and well do go putting nwncy and Steve he is to good for her .

Ps I cried when Dustin told Eddie uncle about his death , Eddie had no chance of a normal life after this

dustin's reaction to Eddie's death was great. then having to go through all that again by telling his uncle about his death. so heartbreaking.

el does have a lot of pressure. she is the only one with powers who can do something about this chaos. she did her best.

im glad venca isnt dead either. he is such a good villain on the show.

I thought it was an ok finale, bit slow in parts

Best scene was Will/Jonathan, that was and they were so criminally underused this season...

Really good scene with Eddie and Dustin too..

Glad that the kids and parents all reunited

Did have a feeling about Vecnar not completely gone

Max

I love how this whole season the hinted about Will sexuality without saying it.

Poor Max

I honestly feel like the main thing that made me a bit iffy about this finale, was that Eddie had died. I wish he had been in more than this season. He was one of the best characters in the whole show.

Hopefully Max will be okay. I wonder why El didn't see her in her mind or whatever? It's like she's just completely gone even with being in a coma.

I feel the same way about Eddie. I loved his character since the moment he entered the show. I really wanted him to survive so he could be in s5 as well

This episode was great, but I wasn't a fan of everything.

MVPs of the episode were Lucas, Nancy, Eleven, Eddie, and Max.

Sadie and Caleb's acting was outstanding. All the awards.

Dustin's scene with Eddie's uncle made me sadder than Eddie's actual death. I think because I predicted Eddie dying.

I do think the "two days later" kind of threw things off a bit. I get that they had to reunite groups, but I would have dealt with a longer episode if we got to see the immediate aftermath.

The ending scene... wow, the set up for season five is insane.

I'm not a fan of Jonathan lying to Nancy, and I'm also not a Stancy fan because I think it would be a disservice to all parties if Steve and Nancy got back together. I would prefer Steve/Robin being platonic soulmates and Steve getting a new LI/job/college... than his storyline being about Nancy when he knows she's with Jonathan. I think he could have had a scene about thanking her for giving him the "push" to mature without the romantic overtones.

I feel like although they got an entirely separate storyline, I do wish the Russia SL was kind of... pointless? Although, I suppose they needed to shut down the demodogs, so it furthered the plot that way. But really, aside from kidnapping Hopper, we still don't really know why the Russians were operating and studying the monsters... so the plotline kind of seemed unappealing to me.

Hawkins gang was the best part of the season for me.

I didn't get the Russian storyline either, I was hoping that we would get an answer into how the monsters were there, how they found them etc, but nothing. That storyline could have lasted 2 episodes, not that long..
