Stranger Things: Every Main Character Ranked Worst To Best

Nancy was kind of annoying in season one, which, admittedly, was the point. Her arc focused on her learning to care about more than just superficial high school things through investigating the disappearance of her best friend Barb with Jonathan. It also made sense that her season two plot line would focus on her still feeling guilty about Barb and attempting to get some real justice for her, as the show’s fans cried for throughout season one.

Still, her relationship with Jonathan throughout seasons two and three just didn't develop interestingly enough to justify it’s continued existence and her investigative journalism plot line in season three also proved itself to be only tangentially related to what the rest of the cast were up to.

While it was nice to see Nancy grow up and come out of her shell, as well as come to terms with her harrowing experiences, let’s hope that she finds herself a little less pushed to the side in season four.
