Where to Watch Stranger Things - S5 • E6
- Mat BJanuary 27, 2026This show is the definition of overproduced. No wonder the run times are so long, nothing gets cut. Also, this coma dreamworld stuff is cool in its own right but we've lost track of what made the show great completely, nothing is remotely grounded, its super villain and fantasy.
- D_mikosDecember 28, 2025Despite a few shining moments, this episode collapses under some questionable writing decisions at the end. Lucas and Dustin each have their moment to shine with two unbelievable performances that are so genuine and grounded it may be the highlight of the season for me. Unfortunately, there is too much going on elsewhere that take away from those performances. Clumsy exposition and terrible character decisions completely deflate what could otherwise be a decent episode. What should be a turning point for this season instead highlights Season 5's biggest problems, too many storylines, weak payoffs, and an infuriatingly mishandled ending.
- Brian FactuntDecember 26, 2025pretty good did nancy and john break up or was it not a break up i couldn't tell i thought they didn't break up and the unproposal was indicative of nancy and john leaving behind the suffocating expectations of their relationship due to shared trauma and being more open and honest with each other moving on together as a stronger couple but then i saw that the duffel brothers have said it WAS a break up so ok.
