Great season altogether, although I definitely wish they would have killed off someone other than Munson. He was the star of the season for me.
Him in the Michael Myers mask had me cracking up. The scene with him and Dustin jamming to Metallica to bait the bats was awesome as well.
Spoiler!
My main annoyance with the Eddie death is that it seemed completely unnecessary. They already had distracted the bats to let them get into the house. They had a way back through the portal. And yet he doesn't take it because he didn't want to run?? If they needed more distraction all they had to do was simply wait until the bats left and climb back through the portal and just walk back outside and start playing music again. One of the most pointless "heroic" deaths I've ever seen in a show.
The other reason I wish they would have killed off some others is that there are getting to be way too many characters and it's hard to feel for all of them. Why am I supposed to care about Will possibly being gay when he has like 20 minutes of screen time the entire season? Why am I supposed to care about a possible love triangle when the boyfriend and girlfriend in said triangle don't speak to each other for the entire season except for an awkward hug at the end? The Russia side plot may as well have been an entirely different show. Consolidating the cast would add some stakes and streamline the show so that you care about all of the characters without having some being left out.
