    I can see why you feel like that, especially with the product placement. But it’s still enjoyable, being it a parody is a bit of stretch

      I agree with you, it’s more campy and an homage to the 80s, not a parody. I will agree that they should have probably ended it in 2019 or aged the kids with their actual age, but that would go against the goonies vibe of kids on an adventure. Compared to the 5th season of the Walking Dead, this season is much better.

      Dude, it is ridiculous! The old-ass actors playing children alone is enough to completely explode any possibility of taking it seriously. Them riding around on the bikes that are now way too small for them is hilarious. I’m amazed anyone is even remotely invested in it.

        Why are you watching it?

        You are saying the same stupid shit about this season that has been said since S2.

        I fell off somewhere towards the end of the first season when it became clear it wasn’t what I’d assumed it was (a horror show with some drama).

        I legitimately cannot believe it’s still going. I feel like it’s been going for my entire adult life. I assumed it had ended years ago with the guy who died! Eddie?

          /boggle

          It is a horror show with some drama. Exactly what do you think it is?

            Wait what’s boggle?

            I thought it was gonna be scarier! Like, more Haunting of Hill House. But then it became a bit more 80s action horror instead which is fine but just wasn’t what I was looking for is all!
