Watching these characters develop season to season has been just like growing up again. I'm interested in seeing where they take the stories this new season. We see flashes of a July 4th celebration, some sick exercise video moves, an antenna, and another disgusting monster that wants to kill everyone in its way. Cue Eleven's nosebleed.
