Didn't we see Hopper's daughter die in a flashback though? I guess it's possible that somehow the equipment was rigged to give a false notification of a dead pulse, but I'm not sure I'm buying into that theory.
A) it would explain the short hair on El.
B) think about how they faked mike's death with that body. The body was way too good to be the first time they've done that. The child "dies", then the government takes the body, replaces it with the fake body, parents bury the fake and don't have reason to go looking for the child, as they think he/she is dead and buried.
They train said child as a weapon without anyone ever looking for he/she again.
This show makes it fun to theorize.
Don't forget also that Eleven's mind and memory were 100% wiped, so that may play in as well

bumping for folks like myself who just finished

I stuck it out and watched the whole season. It got much better after the first 2 episodes.

I thought they made it pretty clear that El is the missing daughter of Terry Ives.

Very clear.
Terry Ives gets preggo right before/during major LSD-induced submerged isolation experiments. She obviously did this for the length of her pregnancy. Baby is taken from her and has psych powers due to LSD infusion.
I also thought it was obvious that the monster was terraforming the upside down world using humans/animals from the real world. I think we will see a different monster in the next season, because there seemed to be a variety of non-earthlike life in the upside down dimention? Or, just various stages of the same lifeform like Aliens.
Every time they showed the rift in the lab, the growth had gotten thicker/larger. The spore-like things floating around made even more sense.

I just want to say that it gave me the creeps every time El cried out, "Papa!", to the Modine character. That was fricked up!

I'm late to the party, but figured I'd jump in since this thread is still somewhat going. I finished the series in two days and loved it. I'm a 90s kid (class of 01), but still remember watching ET and the Goonies over and over when I was younger. I didn't get all of the references mentioned here, though.
One minor dumb criticism I have is from the second scene. It's November in Indiana. Who the hell waters their lawn? Or maybe it just fits the character of the dopey 80s dad.
I'm in the camp of El created the monster. As I was watching I kind of assumed it was born out of her anger + fear. But I'm on a rewatch now, so I'll be looking for things I missed and some of the things mentioned in the thread.
The other thing I'll add is that I have to assume the workers at the Lab lived onsite. That was a big facility for such a small town. If the people who worked there also lived nearby, it would employ half the town and thus attract much more attention.
Another question: can we assume the two hunters Dale and Henry are dead?
Also, the times the monster appear are inconsistent. They figure out it's after blood, but what was it doing when it took Will in the first place? Or was that the night the gate was created and it figured out about our dimension so it was just roaming around... But what about when Nancy saw it behind Steve's house in episode 3? What was it doing in our dimension then?
And when it tried to push through the wall but couldn't, was that just him trying to figure out how to create a new gate to get into world?

Just finished this.
Not great but not bad at all either. Very intense with some scary moments/scenes. Bring on season 2

I hate Steve. Not the fact that he's a douche but he has no reason to be.
I don't like sci-fi but my girl does and we watched it and its outstanding
How did the link between the upside down and us even get started? Radiation from the lab?
Why did the monster attack will in the first place he wasn't bleeding like everyone else
I really hate steve
