I like the kids, but season 2 was a letdown in separating them - and besides Will, all three of them had fairly pointless (Lucas), nonexistent (Mike), or obnoxious (the other one) plotlines. They have good banter when together, but they spent like half the season apart.

Other than that, I liked:
-the dynamic between Jim Hopper and Eleven
-Will, luckily that kid who was hardly in season 1 was a great actor
-Sean Astin, mainly because I was sure the twist had to be that he was secretly a bad guy spying on them but instead he was just a kind-hearted doofus, which was a twist itself
-Steve Harrington. Best grown-up character because Hopper, in a shocking turn of events.

Didn't like:
-How the human baddies were not actually baddies, or at least half-assed ones who were genuinely trying to do right and fix the mess left by their colleagues. It made the main cast's constant attempts to undermine them both pointless and annoying. We keep getting told they are bad guys, but they seem to be acting pretty logically anyway.
-Nancy and the older brother. I actually appreciated Nancy becoming more interesting on her own, but their plot line was just so boring. TeamSteve!
-Momma Byers, who played the exact same role she did in the first season
-The fate of Mews. :-/ booo, hiss.
-The Eleven in the City episode, which didn't have any purpose except to set up for a later season. The misfits were pretty bad.

Ambivalent about:
-the new girl and her brother. Or rather, I liked that the new girl seemed just as normal and even awkward as the boys, rather than casting a very pretty and well-manicured girl and pretending she's a tomboy because she's really good at video games or something and occasionally wears a stylish hoodie. Her character made sense. But since she spent most of the time angry and her plot revolved around minor social conflict with the boys, she just wasn't particularly exciting, either. The brother was fun, and I legit felt bad for him in the scene with his dad, but again, seemed like setup for a later season.
