Millie Bobby Brown’s Surprising Stranger Things Season Rankings Revealed
Millie Bobby Brown has revealed her personal ranking of all five Stranger Things seasons, putting season one at the top and season two at the bottom. Her choices have sparked lively debate among fans and cast members alike.
Millie Bobby Brown recently opened up about how she ranks each season of Stranger Things, and her picks are already stirring up conversation among fans. The actress, who plays Eleven, didn’t hold back when asked to list her favorites.
“Season one’s my favorite, then season five,”
she told Vanity Fair.
“Then season three, then season four, then season two.”
Why Season One Tops the List
Brown explained her reasoning, saying the first season holds a special place in her heart.
“Season one, nostalgia-wise, it’s my favorite season. Personally, it was the most exciting time of my life. But season five, the way it looks, the way it feels, the plot – all of it is my favorite.”
For her, the debut season stands out not just for its story, but for the memories it brings back from when the show first launched and changed her life.
Season Two: The Least Favorite
When it came to the bottom of her list, Brown was honest but not harsh.
“Least favorite, season two, just ‘cause I don’t really remember it,”
she admitted.
“Everyone hates episode seven.”
That particular episode, titled ‘The Lost Sister,’ has long been a point of contention among viewers, who often criticize its shift in tone and pacing. Still, not everyone agrees with Brown’s take. Noah Schnapp, who plays Will Byers, pushed back, saying the second season gets
“way too much slander.”
Gaten Matarazzo, known for his role as Dustin, chimed in as well, calling it an
“underrated season.”
Fan and Cast Reactions
The debate over which season stands out isn’t new, but Brown’s rankings have reignited the conversation. Many fans agree that the first season’s blend of mystery and ‘80s nostalgia made it an instant classic. The third and fourth seasons, meanwhile, are often seen as closely matched, though some give the third season a slight edge thanks to memorable moments like the Battle of Starcourt.
Season two, however, continues to divide the fanbase. Its seventh episode, where Eleven meets her ‘sister’ and a group of outsiders, is frequently cited as a misstep that disrupted the season’s momentum. Despite the criticism, some cast members and fans still defend its place in the series.
Looking Ahead to Season Five
With the first part of season five now out, early reviews have praised its big action scenes and emotional performances. The anticipation for the next batch of episodes is high, and fans are eager to see how the story wraps up. If you’re wondering when the rest of season five will drop on Netflix, keep an eye out for the official release schedule.
So, where do you stand? Which season of Stranger Things is your personal favorite?
