Nah. It's a dig at everyone. The general public seems to really hate that episode. I thought it was one of the strongest of the series. But now I'm finding out that most people really fucking hate that episode. I just don't understand people.

Yes. I'm talking about Episode 7 (The Lost Sister) of Season 2. It's a sort of "stand-alone" episode (by which I mean, it doesn't directly tie into the events of the rest of the season) that focuses on 11 as a character and her time away from Hawkins.

You have turned into a monster.

I like what they're going for and I enjoyed S1 enough for what it was. But I don't think it needed a S2. But I will say that, ultimately, I thought S2 was more successful than S1. But a large part of that was 11. She's amazing. I'm looking forward to S3 WAY more than I was looking forward to S2.

Those actors are so fantastic though. Every one of them. And its an excellent take on a sci fi genre.

I like the self-referential nature of the show. People will bemoan the "nostalgia" but it's never felt like an exploitation of nostalgia to me. Anyway... yes, I like the aesthetic and the tone. My biggest issues with S1 were the adults and the plotting. S2 fixed both of those things. My biggest issue with S2 was the "bigness." The CGI is lame and the story gets a little unnecessarily large. But that's a small complaint. That's why liked E7 so much. It brought it back to a character perspective and used the "bigness" in a way that aided the plot, rather than BECAME the plot.

We watched this episode the other night and I was similarly surprised when I went online to find out people hated it so much - I thought it was one of the best bits of the series so far.
