10/10
The Piggyback
1 July 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Honestly some of the best tv i've watched in a long time. Acting was top notch, the cinematography was great and the story was intense and emotional. Thoroughly enjoyed season 4's darker tone, and this finale continued that and adds a lot of emotion. One of the best episode of this show so far for me. Episode 7 still takes top spot.

One small issue- I think it was unnecessary to bring Max back alive. Her 'death' had me in tears, and I like Max don't get me wrong but eleven bringing her back in a way kind of ruined that whole sad emotional montage of her dying moments before. Felt a bit unoriginal and the typical main characters can't die mindset. Max had near death several times this season just to be saved and saved again, it became tedious seeing her being saved once again. Max was the main focus this season and it would've ended her story arc perfectly.

But I can forgive it, because everything else was perfectly done. RIP eddie, and dustin's breakdown over his body was hard to watch. Still deserves a 10, just think Max's death would've left more of an impact on season 4's greatness.
