As the last and final season of Stranger Things has officially been released, many see this as the end of an era.
Junior Mabel Wall, who’s an immense fan of Stranger Things, has high hopes for and expectations for the final season. “I like that they decided to release episodes one at a time this season because it builds suspense and I can watch it twice if I want to,” Wall said.
The producers wanted a change for this season to create a new experience for the fans, which Wall appreciated. Wall said her favorite of the series was season three.
“I really hope Hopper and Joyce stay alive until the end because they are one of my favorite little couples,” Wall said.
Fans, such as Wall, are sad that Stranger Things has come to an end, but after the first four episodes, it has created high hopes for the future. Wall thinks this season will be a good one, and for those who haven’t watched it yet, it’s a great series to start.
Sophomore JJ Cazarez has different emotions on watching the final season come to an end.
“I liked that they introduced new characters this season, like delightful Derek,” Cazarez said.
Cazarez now feels that Derek has become one of his new favorite characters in the series, but thinks many other old characters have undergone a decline in quality. So far for Cazarez, the start of season five was hard to predict, which left him in suspense about the future episodes.
“I’m glad they aren’t dragging the show on, but it sucks that this is the last season,” Cazarez said.
The unexpected twists and turns from the past lead fans to expect even more plot twists this season. Cazarez believes that this finale will be a fitting conclusion to the series.
Freshman Hollie Nagel – Thinks the first four episodes of season five were intriguing, but the finale could have an upsetting finish.
“After being a fan of the show for quite some time now, the producers better have some great plans for this season,” Nagel said.
She hopes that the producers have decided on a happy ending, but knowing from the past seasons, Nagel feels that it will be highly unlikely.
“I just hope Eleven can actually save everyone from the Upside Down this time,” Nagel said.
Many fans have created predictions and speculations for the final episodes. Nagel said she doesn’t know what prediction she believes in, but she hopes that in the end, everything will come to a complete finish.
“I have a pretty good feeling that season five will be a good end to the show,” Nagel said.
