Stranger Things: Series 3 — Episode 7— Chapter 7: The Bite — A Review

25th July, 2019.


Yes: that video was made at roughly 20:00, this evening.

And, yes: apparently?

It was supposed to be raining.



Was, I emphasise.


Right at the moment … ?



The best way I can describe the weather … ?

Is by saying “It’s muggy … ”

~≈¥≈~



The kind of muggy that means two things, as far as I’m concerned.

Firstly?

It’s the second time in as many days that I’ve had two showers.

And secondly?

I watch TV with the windows open, again … 

Yes: watching series 3 of Stranger Things … 

~≈¥≈~

Episode 7 — Chapter Seven: The Bite — shows us Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) realising that the Mind Flayer is pursuing her: for it’s defeat in series two.

Will (Finn Wolfhard) agrees with her: and is the first to realise the Beast is coming.

Meanwhile, Dustin and Erica (Gaten Matarazzo, Priah Ferguson) have managed to rescue Steve and Robin (Joe Keery, Maya Hawke): who are both, very slowly, recovering from their treatment at the hands of the Russians.

Hopper (David Harbour) and his band … ?

Head for the fun fare: they need to get Alexei (Alec Utgoff) to safety: little knowing Alexei’s former employers are ALSO coming.

Mike, Eleven and the gang, finally get to somewhere they feel safe.

Which is where Eleven … collapses … 

Ever get the feeling she’s in trouble … ?

~≈¥≈~

Now … 

This is a fantastic little episode: one complete with a scene where Steve get’s the loveliest let down ever.


I have to give Joe Keery HUGE credit, there: just that look?



Was spot on.



The same goes for Maya Hawke, in fact!

Let’s face it: how many of us haven’t been there, at some point?



As fantastic as this episode is — and The Bite is certainly that — that scene puts the proverbial tin lid on it.

Now … I have to admit I want to see the finale of this series.

I’d like to see if there’s another scene like that … !

I love it when people comment. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?

I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.

Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively adult. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.

Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.

If you can also leave you comments on today’s Teaser Video, that would be good.

Thank you.
