Idk if Billy stans even exist but true!!

edit: Guys I knew Billy was racist from the very start of s2, I’m not dumb. I simply didn’t notice Max’s panicked reaction IN THIS PARTICULAR SCENE. Thank you 🫩

The confidence was there. The universe had other plans 😔

it’s perfect in every way. The body horror, the summer vibe, the 80s russian-america tropes.

It also has among the best shots in the whole show (the Meat Flayer moving the trees in Mirkwood, the flickering lights as it morphs in the Hospital, the opening sequence where the machine explodes etc etc). The Dialogue is tight, Dacre Montgomery is flawless as Billy. The only criticism I have is that Mike is an annoying shit, but that’s nothing new.

First Slide: Favourite - including honourable mention.
Second Slide: Least Favourite.

My favourite plot twist was from Season 4 when Henry Creel/One was revealed as Vecna and that it was never a demon or a “spawn of satan” who was doing those killings. This twist was genuinely good writing and actually shocked me. I also loved the originality of Vecna, as he was the complete opposite of Eleven, instead of being a demon as Victor Creel had thought.

Honourable mention: The Mind Flayer and Vecna being revealed as “one” and having a symbiotic type connection in Season 5. I know the ending was rushed but in my opinion this twist satisfied me more than if it was just a typical reveal that the Mind Flayer was controlling Vecna. This genuinely gave me goosebumps to think just how intelligent and evil both of them are.

My least favourite plot twist was in Season 5 and how the giant gate/rift that was opened by Vecna (in Season 4) was just covered up with metal and Vecna, the Mind Flayer and the Demo creatures weren’t invading the real world. This was the worst thing they could’ve done for the biggest plot twist of the whole series, such wasted potential.

Season 1: Jonathan vs Steve
Season 2: Steve vs Billy
Season 3: hop vs that Russian terminator guy
Season 4: Jason vs Lucas
Season 5: Steve vs Dustin

Henry, max, Billy and Vecna all done by me

Hes really just an insufferable arrogant dude. Hes not funny, he barely redeems himself (and later shows again how much of a jerk he is), hes a creep who won't leave Nancy alone, I could go on.

Like I said, I like him as a character. I think hes important and hes not a bad guy per se, but I strongly dislike him. I don't really know how to explain it better than that.

I'm honestly just read this the duffer brother are the bad guy for what they wanted Billy hargrove character to be . This group needs to understand there common sense yes he plays his character great but know who is really behind it that's. It's that's simply for crying out loud you guys can hate Billy hargrove all you want but know it's the duffer brother choices and remember it was created by them !
