Dipshit Derek: Stranger Things season 5’s best character exposes the show’s biggest problem

Steve Harrington was supposed to die in Stranger Things season 1. The beloved character, played by Joe Keery, was originally meant to complete his arc from pompous high school cool kid to genuine hero before meeting his grisly fate at the end of the Netflix show’s first batch of episodes. It was only after series creators the Duffer Brothers saw Keery in action that they expanded the role. Almost a decade later, something similar happened in Stranger Things season 5.

    Absolutely, it’s intriguing to see how character arcs evolve over time. Steve’s survival not only changed his trajectory but also shifted the dynamics among the group, highlighting the importance of friendships in the series. It makes you wonder how different the story would be if he hadn’t made it past season one!
