not terribly important, but now confused why they went with the title 1984


With that being the title, I went in assuming that almost all of the season would be set in that year, not just half. Sure, maybe pulling the rug out from under us that way was the point. But now it just makes the title a little silly to me. Should've gone with Camp Redwood. They didn't name Asylum or Freak Show after the year they were mostly set in. I can only imagine it's because the characters are figuratively stuck in what happened that year, and some of them literally at the camp as ghosts. I know, small nitpick, but still.

I get the feeling they gave Ryan money and said do what you want so he gave the money to interns and said do what you want.
