I like that he backs up my plant-based monster theory: Quote VICE: What's with the petals? Is the monster a plant monster? Mark Steger: That's a fair speculation. I feel like the monster maybe is more mushroom, which is kind of between plant and animal. Mushroom DNA is more similar to animal DNA than to plant DNA, [but the monster is] something else. He bleeds—or maybe they bleed, or she bleeds. I don't know what pronoun to use for the monster! But it feels like a little bit of both [plant and animal] to me.

I'm intrigued that the first one listed is "Madmax." They're apparently skipping ahead to the fall of 1984. That was a great year for music and music videos as pop culture. It also naturally accounts for why all the kid actors will likely be noticeably older looking instead of going the Carl on The Walking Dead route, which is still pretending only roughly two years have passed while the actor has now gone through puberty and is taller than many of his adult costars after six seasons.

I think they're somewhat behind on filming, honestly. They were supposed to start around mid-October, and they've obviously filmed some stuff, but the kids are doing so much promo and there's awards season, so I think that's delayed things. Makes sense it would take longer this time around too, what with being given an extra episode. In the teaser, am I wrong or did we see Eleven holding her hands over her face at around 0:15? It looks like Millie all right, with her partially grown in hair. Does this mean she gets sprung out of the Upside Down fairly quickly? I hope so, because it would tick me off if we had to spend the entire season trying to find her a la Will in season one. I absolutely love the dynamic she's built with Joyce and the other kids and want to see a lot more of that, especially with Will back in the mix.

It makes sense to me, because it gives them a unique feel, both with the Halloween traditions and with the late autumn atmosphere, and because it means they can write the kids in school, which wouldn't be possible during the summer. Netflix really have no scheduling pressures or desperate need for hits to raise their profile.

I agree, and Halloween sounds like a perfect time, even though selfishly I wanted to see it over the summer. I along with millions of others probably screamed "nooooooo!" when I saw the Halloween date during the Super Bowl ad. The release date of S2 shouldn't impact writing the kids in school though. S1 took place in early/mid November right? And the actual show premiered over the summer, so no issues there. But I think it ultimately will be more fun if it's simultaneously the same time of year for us and the characters. Nancy and Jonathan – was it mentioned in the show if they were juniors or seniors in high school? I don't remember much college talk so I assumed juniors, and then it would be easier storywise for those characters to return as well.
