The 20 Best TV Episodes of 2022
These are the hours (and half-hours) we couldn't shake
9. "Chapter Four: Dear Billy," Stranger Things
Sadie Sink's anguished teen Max Mayfield was the heart and soul of Stranger Things 4, and this showcase episode is a large part of why. With her heartrending speech at her late brother Billy's (Dacre Montgomery) grave and her thrilling escape from Vecna's clutches, Max became Stranger Things' most emotionally complex character and made Kate Bush's classic "Running Up That Hill" into one of the biggest songs of the year, and Sink established herself as a major talent. Plus, Robert Englund showed up for a stunt cameo that worked perfectly, scaring the bejesus out of Nancy (Natalia Dyer) and Robin (Maya Hawke) in a role that was part Freddy Krueger, part Hannibal Lecter. -Liam Mathews
