I wish Winona Ryder had more screen time this season, and overall, I think there should be more focus on her character in the script. I also wish that Steven Spielberg had directed all of the episodes for a few reasons: first, there is a strong and complex narrative, but this season felt a bit all over the place in its portrayal of that narrative. While, SSpielberg is a master storyteller. Second, using the same director for all episodes would help with cohesion. Third, the past nostalgia that stranger things resurrects coincides with when SSpielberg was coming of age as one of the best directors of our time.
