It was a great weekend for many of Netflix’s customers as Stranger Things 2 came out on Friday. With many people binging the series over the course of three days (or much, much less), people turned to the tempestuous social media platform that is Twitter to share their reactions. I plumbed through them to find the best ones so you don’t have to.
**SPOILERS AHEAD!**
Reactions Were Overwhelmingly Positive
But why only nine, Netflix??
i need more than just only nine episodes!!!!! #StrangerThings

The writing. The acting. The sets. The special effects. The soundtrack. The weird seventh episode that still worked. #StrangerThings was a triumph. Bring on 3!

Dear Universe:
If I have kids, let them be like Dusty from #StrangerThings. He’s sweet, loves his mom, and says “shit” a lot. He’s perfect.— Megs (@ApplePieHubbub) October 30, 2017
Lucas’s sister certainly brought the house down.
L’adoro! #StrangerThings pic.twitter.com/sSb6jWDFRa

The Show’s Great Moments
Of course the greatest moments in the show caused people to jump to Twitter.
When you need to use Morse Code to tell your mom to close the gate. #SignsYouArePosessed#StrangerThings

Haters Gonna Hate
Not everyone was happy with all elements of the show, though. Some characters didn’t resonate with everyone.
Didn’t care for the new characters in #StrangerThings except Samwise. I preferred him to stick around instead of Efron+Lowe lovechild Billy

Eleven’s side story ruined the entire grove of the show. The hell man :/ I was rooting for it. #strangerthings
