Season 3 is very entertaining. Although nothing has topped season 1 (if that were possible); season 3 certainly holds it own and gives us what we love about the series: Eighties nostalgia, cliff hanging horror, and a generally good story. The critical reviews on here have some credence because there are some real cheesy parts. A few episodes are like an eighties movie spoof which doesn't play well with those of us that like the sci-fi thriller that we seek. But the critical reviews are a bit too harsh. Every episode written and directed by the Duffer brothers is great. The filler episodes done by others so far are forgettable. I'd recommend watching it; next season hopefully it will be more sci-fi thriller and less romance killer. P.S. After writing this to be fair if it wasn't for the cheesy romance parts we wouldn't have the laughs either so keep that door 3 inches open and sing it proud Dusty-buns.
