Who was the dumbest, smartest, and most heroic in 'Stranger Things' season 2

Warning: Spoilers for season two of "Stranger Things." If you aren't caught up on the series, read at your own risk. 

Season two of "Stranger Things" brought back all of our favorite Hawkins, Indiana residents, and it introduced some new ones.

This time around, we got to know minor characters from season one like Steve, Lucas, and Dustin. 

This season was also packed with character development, scary monsters, big hair, and teenage heartbreak.

So we've rounded up which characters were the smartest, dumbest, luckiest, and more in our power rankings. 

Here's the "Stranger Things" power rankings based on what we saw in season two:

Jim Hopper — the dumbest, best dancer

Netflix

Hopper makes some questionable choices in season two. His plan to keep Eleven in a cabin makes sense. He's protecting her from the people hunting her down. But he probably should have expected a teenager with literal superpowers to retaliate and want to see the sun for a second.  

Hopper also jumps right into the Upside Down all alone. And instead of immediately climbing out back to regular earth, Hopper keeps going — and going, and going, all by himself, until a monster wraps around his entire body.

Hopper likes to work alone, but he's seen what the Upside Down can do before, and he honestly is lucky that he is saved by good timing. 

The best thing Hopper does this season is a cute little dance in a scene with Eleven, which has already turned into a meme. 

 



Steve Harrington — best babysitter, best hair

Netflix

Steve spends the bulk of season two running around with unlikely pal Dustin. Then he is in charge of Lucas, Mike, Max ,and Dustin while the adults and other teens go off and do the real work. 

Turns out, heartbroken Steve is good at babysitting with the help of his assistant: his spiked baseball bat that he uses to fight demodogs and protect the children.

Steve also, as always, has the best hair. In season two he comes out strong with a bigger, better, more 1984 hairstyle, thanks to Farrah Fawcett hairspray.

Thank you for being Steve, Steve!



Eleven — most emo

Netflix

Emo wasn't really a thing yet in 1984, but it's the best way to describe Eleven in season two.

Hopper is basically her dad now, but he has a set of rules for her. She can't leave the cabin, and she can't even open the curtains. He does treat her to Eggo waffles every night, but that's really the only thing she has going for her.

After spending all day, every day, alone confined to a small space, Eleven starts to get moody. She is becoming a teenager, after all. So she has an intense fight with Hopper, goes to Chicago, and comes back wearing all black with heavy eyeliner to match. She looks like, in Hopper's words, "some kind of MTV punk." The most surprising thing here is that Hopper knows what MTV is. 

Now, thanks to Hopper and Dr. Owens, Eleven might get to be an ordinary kid who inevitably turns on her parental figure for a few years.
