Anyone going to start watching this one? I think it looks pretty good.
Those are the same feelings I have after finishing S2 last night. There were some moments of real tension that I didn't experience in S1. The relationship between El and Jim worked really well. And I'm also loving David Harbour's performance.I'm 6 episodes in.
My observation ($0.02 worth) is that even though we've lost the surprise of something new (we know about 11's abilities and we know what the "upside-down" is) this season has a solid story, better acting, and just an overall "smoother" feel to me. This is, so far, another season well done. It has big shoes to fill and they're doing it easily.

The issue with the kiss wasn't about it being interracial. It was about the fact it was unscripted and kind of done as a bit of hazing to make the 15 year old actress uncomfortable. Whether that is a real issue or not, it doesn't seem to have been handled very maturely by anyone creators or actors.One thing I liked was that there wasn't too much "preachy" stuff, which seems to be the Hollywood trend these days. I thought I saw an article on CNN about the kiss at the end. Didn't Star Trek put that to rest 50 years ago? C'mon, man!
I thought she looked fantastic in her goth outfit too. She is a great actress, able to pull off a ton of emotion with barely saying anything. She does an excellent job.Millie seems very mature for her age. How about that British accent! The kid has a future in the industry!
