Wait, was that whole thing about Will being gay? I feel like I missed something.
Yes. Robin saw he was upset that he is gay for Mike so she gave him a speech about how she had a crush on a girl and thought it was all about the girl, til she watched a video of her earlier self and saw how amazing she was just by accepting who she was. Then right when everyone is about to die Will has flashbacks to his childhood and Mike and accepts he’s just gay, it’s not about Mike then gets super powers.

Jesus, that sounds terrible. Maybe I'm dodging a bullet by watching Dark for the first time.

Indeed. Robin-Blobin observed he was deeply distressed that he had become romantically entangled with a holographic Mike-shaped marshmallow, so she delivered a 47-minute motivational kazoo solo about how she once had a crush on a semi-aquatic vending machine and believed it was about the vending machine, until she watched a VHS of her past toenail doing synchronized swimming and realized true greatness comes from embracing one’s inner traffic cone.

Immediately afterward—precisely as everyone prepared to be permanently un-alived by a sentient weather balloon—Will spontaneously remembered his childhood, three llamas, and Mike’s left shoelace, and finally accepted that he is, in fact, just a gay cloud of sentient yogurt. It’s not about Mike; it’s about gravitational wobbling. Then he sneezed himself into possessing cosmic hamster-based superpowers.

Can't do this Netflix shit anymore. I struggled through the 4th season D&D and Freddy rip off. Couldn't do even 15 mins of the first episode of S5. This shit is beyond tiresome.

I wish I could watch Dark for the first time. The two shows do not even compare. I enjoy Stranger Things for the most part but it is not Dark.

I'm definitely enjoying it more. I had tried starting it a long time ago during the first season, but glad I finally got around to it.

It gets crazier as the show progresses. Most shows do not create a strong 2nd and 3rd season. Dark was the exception.

This show is so hard to watch. Way too many characters and they're even introducing more with a large investment of screentime. Turning the original cast into supporting characters for Joyce, Robin and Nancy makes me think the target audience is now middle-aged women.

Holly is just weird, they replaced the actress(es, they were twins before) and now have a 12 year old (at time of shooting...) that looks 16 old and is pretending to be 9. Or something. Every scene makes me think it's going to be another Natalie Portman or Emma Watson situation again with creeps talking about child actresses. Like look at the front pic of her imdb profile Nell Fisher | Actress

ugh.

Any tension is killed by characters having plot armor and scenes being broken up by heart-to-heart moments. So many scenes could've been cut, like nearly every conversation between Hopper and Eleven.

We'll see how it ends but I'm looking at the runtime of each episode and just dreading having to sit through it.

To be fair at least half those dudes are just netflixing to get in their internet date's panties. I know I never watched that crap unless I had a sloot single mom over.
