3. Steve's Still The Best

After being a less-appealing prospect in the show's first season, Steve (Joe Keery) really came into his own in Season 2, transitioning into not only a season regular but also a thoroughly likeable fan-favourite.

Stranger Things 3 appears to show the Duffer Brothers totally leaning into that fanfare, with the trailer highlighting Steve's continued bromance with Dustin, and also what appears to be a potential romance with his co-worker at the ice cream shop, Robin (Maya Hawke, daughter of Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke).

Robin's climactic zinger, "How many children are you friends with?" is a gut-buster, suggesting that Steve's likely going to endure as an effortless charmer this season.
