That's interesting, with it only being 7 episodes and hearing you're thoughts that it losses it's way towards the end, I sometimes wonder if these things should just be a movie.

Like a lot of the marvel TV shows. They largely felt like drawn out movies rather than a TV show, and in my opinion suffered for it.

You actually guessed it. Season 2 is half of the final story, and so it ends on a cliffhanger. They should’ve just made it into a 10 episode season and be done with it, so they could cut off all the unnecessary stuff.

Oh god, I think for that reason alone I won't bother with it. I'm still pissed at how Stranger Things was handled.
