I just finished Stranger Things Season 3. IMO it was definitely a step up from Season 2, though I didn't like it quite as much as Season 1. Solid 8/10 all around. Too much romance for me, dropped lol Nah, only at the beginning. For me it was the best season and I already have some theories about season 4.

That sound about right for me too 8/10. If it was all like the second half of the season it would have been 10/10. They wasted so much time with Teen drama and Too much romance for me, dropped lol That! So much teen romance drama that made me nauseated. I was really glad when people started dying, cause it felt like the whole thing was turning into a teen drama show. ![x_x](//storage.proboards.com/6753349/images/fzJxpemqdAAzwrkUEGBZ.png)

lgbtq rep on Stranger Things ![](https://media0.giphy.com/media/yIsbuPCEOgNHO/giphy.gif) Robin is awesome! but Will needs to come out in season 4 ![](https://media3.giphy.com/media/xUOwFZYb0bpyjTWPF6/giphy.gif) I dont know about you guys but I have been seeing hints since season 2 and I'm sure there are hints in season 1 but I dont remember that much, I mean that rainbow shipdrawing convo with Joyce and how proud she was of his son, and the "you are not a freak" convo with his brother, and these hints on season 3?? Fuck are they even hints? that's not even subtext, I related a lot with Will's experience this season when I was a kid, and he has a big crush on Mike poor kid I really hope we can get a lot of Will and Eleven relationship in s4 because I LOVED what they did with her and Max this season, I need more bonding of my children. Also, Hopper is not dead. Periodt. I never liked Billy but he redeemed himself at least. I feel sleepy to comment more but Nancy is still the best! Also can straights tm let us have at least two gay characters in a show full of straight characters? ofc there are people saying otherwise in my spoiler I really hope writers support us and not that scum. edit. also this thread

Man, I related to Will so hard this season too.
I give it 60/40 odds in favor of Will being gay. The Montauk pitch isn't confirmation IMO, since a lot of things in it were changed (e.g. central Indiana instead of Long Island, Mr. Clark having a bigger role, Lucas' parents having a messy and expensive divorce, etc.) I do generally agree with you, though; in particular, Mike saying "It's not my fault you don't like girls" in the season where all the kids are getting hit with puberty seems like an obvious setup for Will to put two and two together in Season 4.
Speaking of gay characters - we all just appreciate how good a guy Steve Harrington continued to be in this season? He finds out that his coworker/new friend whom he's developing feelings for is lesbian, takes a few seconds to process that new information, then turns to good-naturedly teasing her for her taste in girls - in 1985 Indiana.
Also, the Brigham Young University pennant in Suzie's room was a really nice touch. As well as her reading "A Wizard of Earthsea" - it's nice to see them reference a classic nerdy book from that era that isn't The Lord of the Rings.

Another Life, a sci-fi drama, is coming out on Netflix in July. Starring this guy He's not the lead character, so I'm hoping they'll forget to make him straight. Never mind, read something, scrolled through one episode to check, and I hate it. They killed him in the first episode, in a minute long electrocution scene. I'm not sure if it's the death, complete with burned flesh, or if it's just because of Derek, but that was very upsetting to watch. Guess that's one thing I can cross off my watchlist.

I'm watching -slowly because my living room is never empty- The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance and I'm loving it with every inch of my body, the nostalgia is so big, the show is beautiful and the characters are really nice, Deet and Hup specially. Also ![](https://media1.giphy.com/media/26hpKMTa5HgdSMhRC/giphy.gif)

DC: Age of Resistance is amazing! I watched it all in one sitting with only small breaks to do those pesky human things one must do. ![x_x](//storage.proboards.com/6753349/images/fzJxpemqdAAzwrkUEGBZ.png)

That's actually a screencap I took, and someone reposted it from my Tumblr without credit. o|-< Ah well, I'm glad the word is getting out -- her dads were SO CUTE. I also noticed in a lot of promos for the show that apparently Tavra (Brea's sister) has a girlfriend? But I finished the show and didn't see evidence of it. I wonder if that was in the tie-in novels?

WELP. I have been excited for Carnival Row for months, and only just started it since it came out on the same day as The Dark Crystal. Imagine my surprise when it turns out some characters are gay... (Plot spoilers and a small rant.) ... and then imagine my lack of surprise when they're promptly murdered. And there's a whole thing about how being gay is a crime in that society and so on.
Guys, first of all, I'm tired of the Bury Your Gays trope. I feel like we need a site like "does the dog die", but it's "do the gays die".
Second of all, I'm tired of "historical accuracy" in fantasy series. You're telling me that in this show, fae and magic and shit exist, but like god forbid we don't also include homophobia.
(┛ಠ_ಠ)┛彡┻━┻ Anyway, OTHER THAN THAT, the show has actually been great lmao. I'm having a good time with it, that just super killed my mood.

Only 3 ep left of Dark Crystal and I dont want it to end t-t and I'm expecting horrible things ![:sob:](//storage.proboards.com/6753349/images/yQmfzkSKhSSfgFiUKhma.png) I hope some gelfling survive and hide or something, damn movie prologue WELP.

Now I know I'm getting this show off my watch list, a shame really but I can't endure that trope without any prominent lgbtq main characters in the cast.

(The writers had the full story planned out, but the pacing was too fast. So they made 2/3rds of what was planned, and the rest will be in season 2.) So we'll probably have to watch the tragedy happen then. o|-<
I hope for the same thing though, I really hope they retcon that not EVERYone died.

I read the main fairy in Carnival Row is bisexual, I'm guessing she's another Lucifer case scenario with her main love interest being a man I mean you dont cast Orlando Bloom if you dont want them to be endgame, so yeah big pass lol to sum it up when it comes to bisexual lead characters I always say Lost Girl >>>>>>>>>> Lucifer (hate that character). Or Siren is even better example of what I like. Also yeah, I'm reading there is no even christianity in the show but homophobia exists... ![](https://media.tenor.com/images/5a8b65355286a432258f6b06d4f0516c/tenor.gif) and there is a second season confirmed lol Where is my the Dark Crystal Age of resistance renewal
