After the near perfection of season one, season two of Stranger Things had the difficult task of capturing lightning twice and, while not as tight as its origins, season two is nine episodes of tantalising thrills.
Overall, Stranger Things 2 honours its legacy with a justified and heartfelt story, a cast of fantastic performances, and a world with a season finale that goes big, blasting the roof of the show's lore wide open. The sheer passion of the cast and crew involved screams 'we have more to tell', and, I, for one, will be there to watch and listen as they play in their neon 80s sci-fi sandbox.
