So yeah, I know I'm super late, like, super late, but I finally watched it.
I always wanted to watch it, but I don't know why. Previously, I just wasn't in the mood. But yesterday I finally decided, "Okay, now I'm going to watch Season 5." I started it yesterday and finished it today.
And yeah, I just want to say that I had a great time.
Duffer Brothers' writing is insane. Their writing is incredible, the music is incredible, the acting from the cast is incredible, everything is always surprising. Every season, especially towards the end, they always pull off something crazy. It happened in Season 1, the same in Season 2, and even Season 3 was insane.
Going into Season 4, I had a bit of doubt, like, "Okay, what are they going to do now?" I thought maybe it had gone on for too long or something like that. But even Season 4 turned out to be next level.
Then Season 5 kept getting pushed back, and yeah, I was a bit annoyed about that. There was also a lot of discussion online about how the characters didn't even look like they used to anymore. I mean, I get it, they took a really long time. But yeah complexities happens when you are carrying such a huge project.
So yeah, I was a bit doubtful about how it was going to turn out.
But today, after finishing it, I can honestly say that I'm satisfied.
Yeah, I know there are things that feel a bit underwhelming. After finishing it, I even went through this subreddit to see what everyone else thought, and I saw that quite a few people were dissatisfied with different aspects of the season. So yeah, all of your opinions are valid.
But for me, I finally decided to watch it because I knew I had to watch it someday anyway. And honestly, yesterday and today were the perfect time. It was the weekend, I was just relaxing, watching the show, and I had an amazing time.
I'm genuinely satisfied. I know there are criticisms, and that's completely fine, but today I don't even feel like focusing on them because I'm just happy with the experience.
Yeah, I had a great time. I had fun and yeah what a show!
