An episode with a sitcom trope of not talking directly. This ends in a heartfelt and poignant end.
Archie's character really shines here in the eulogy. That Cunningham was Jewish was an interesting twist.
Mike really looks bad here. Good that his trip was a failure.

Good ending to Rayquaza and good to get Sprigatito evolving.
There's a lot of great, creepy parts of this season. But there's also a lot of great character developments. Splitting the party between Hawkins and California gave a lot of time for people to develop.
The season had some pacing issues, with the final episode 2.5 hours to conclude all the things they started. They could've done better at integrating the stories earlier so that the season blended more smoothly.
Still, there's a lot of good drama throughout.
A long episode, longer than many movies, wraps up the season with plenty of exciting moments. I think the whole thing was exciting and gave the characters a lot of heartfelt and action beats.
The actual action ends about 40 minutes before the actual episode ends. The rest is just aftermath and there's a lot they try to wrap up. I think that's an unfortunate side effect of the season pacing.
The last ten minutes sets up the next season.
Fun character interactions with the characters trying to get around Archie. The old bus station was fun
A very tense episode that's got a lot of interesting discussions

Didn't enjoy Mike's whole anti child thing again
Good to see the story finally reconnecting
This episode had a driving plot that kept me engaged. It's good that the One/Vecna plotlines have some convergence. I think the CGI at the very end wasn't too good.
Fair episode. Didn't like the cops. 11's backstory is kinda long and the chronology was a bit confusing.
Very intense episode. I don't really get the Vecna stuff yet and where it's leading.
Surprised the mayor called in. John Carpenter was a bit odd. Fun discussions and panel. The Saymo saga was a nice send-off.
It was fine. Neat to see Ben Mank call in
Didn't get the sunglasses but a fun discussion
Great to learn more about the demon and the backstory. Intense action. Glad Max won a small victory. Still into it.
A fun ensemble of guests and some weird call-ins
Good to see more characters interacting together. We're also really getting into the meat now.
We never found out what happened to Gigi's foot.
The dark web b-plot was weird and the acting wasn't stellar. At one point I saw they were using VLC Player.
Deeply eerie. The different characters are neat to see back with all the same problems of teenagers.
I didn't really need to see the villain backstory
A fine take on a clip show. Kinda lame plot.
Charlie does great acting while the rest of the story just kinda wraps up the Ireland saga
Definitely a lot of Seinfeld allusions here. But it was still a fun episode and a good ending to the whole thing.
Fun moments with Mac. The other stories were a bit bland.
Nice to see an appearance from Chief O'Brien
