Justin Portillo It’s because he’s not an aggressive character, despite his tough guy persona. He clearly has better reflexes than both Johnathan and Billy, but he has a tendency to dodge, put one hit in, then not follow up.
not in this fight scene, but when he fights the demogorgan thing, he instantly ducks under it's clawing attempt and hits back with his bat. Also in the fight scene with billy he dodges quickly
I'm just glad Steve wasn't hanging out with that group of kids in Season 2. That doesn't mean Billy might not become the new group leader in Season 3, especially considering the fact that the short, red-headed girl stupidly liked him the moment she saw him when he made his first appearance.
I would of jobbed him for even pushing me. I really enjoyed the outcome and progression of steves character though in season 2.. Poor thing got beat up again though :(
Season 1 Jonathan was really something. It's a shame he didn't get that much of a character development in the following seasons. But even so he'll always be my favorite along with El.
I feel like once they got to work redeeming Steve they no longer knew what to do with Jonathan. I was almost certain Steve was going to die at the end of season 1, and thought it was cool he was going out in a brave, redemptive way. But then, rather than dying, he survived and arguably became one of the more interesting aspects of seasons 2-3. By season 4 I was forgetting Jonathan existed every time he wasn’t onscreen. I appreciate the hell out of Stranger Thing’s decision not to make Steve such a black and white villain character, but I also think it made it a lot harder for them to balance the Nancy/Jonathan dynamic while making it seem interesting. Steve and Nancy had solid chemistry in season 4.
Yeah, I hate what they did with Jonathan in S4, he just spiraled after the move even more than the younger kids. Hope now that he's back in Hawkins, things change for the better.
I like Jonathan, I hope he has a huge moment in the final season, and aside from this, he managed to fight off a large flay, so he had a bit of action outside this brawl
Anger gives adrenaline Adrenaline gives immense pain resistance and allows muscle mass to strain itself and perform anaerobic action past normal limits. Granted, its a small thing, but important in the moment. Most people (of similar strength to their opponent) can "win fights" simply by refusing to stop swinging. now it won't let a 100lb skinnymode kid fight a 200lb beefcake (anime lied to you I'm sorry), but anger will tip the odds in the case of similarly built people like these two.
Mr44andMore well yea but you wouldn’t be saying that about Steve if season 2 hadn’t come out yet Jonathon beating the ever living shit out of made Steve into what he is today
@@chilledgames1348 he did but then he did not,just like butterfly effect,the beating led to his character growth but was that really the reason for it?? No
To be honest, bully or not, i'd do the exact same thing if i was steve. To his perspective nancy was cheating with jonathan in her room. And jonathan was a creep for taking pictures of their party. And he really cared for nancy. When he knew demogorgon was the reason behind it, he bought a new camera for jonathan. He is a good guy from the beginning.
DRGIZMO29 I mean he could’ve confronted Nancy and tried to get the truth out of her to make sure it wasn’t true. Instead he and his jerk friends decide it’d be more fun to spray paint Nancy is a slut graffiti
@@plowplum Yes because Steve is gonna believe that they went into a forest and Nancy got sucked into an alternate dimension through a tree, where they were chased by a demonic looking creature.
Jonathan Byers is my favorite character and I'll admit it, I just came here to watch his fistfight in this scene and I hope in season 4 that he'll put up good fights and still wins.
1:17-1:24 You can see Johnathan's anger escalate. Steve mocks his father, he couldn’t care less Mocks his mom, he gets angrier Mocks his brother, that's when he snaps
Back when Johnathan was badass and complex, it’s a shame what they did to him in season four. Also, props to Steve for telling the other guy to get outta the fight, that takes a man and this whole scene was the beginning of the end of toxic Steve.
+Lydsicles Editsxoxo well theyr both to average joes who think theyre the toughest around like the rest of em. i could kick the ass of the two of them with my old man strength.
Steve:That was one time! Dustin:Nope, two times, Jonathan.. Year prior Steve:Th-that doesn't count Dustin:Are you sure, because it looked like he kicked your ass.
Shantanu what’s honestly kinda funny to me is that he actually could’ve won all of his fights. In this one, the punch that floored him and when Jonathan got the mount and did some ground n pound, he should’ve either blocked or dodged it. Instead, he practically gave it to Jonathan. He was also beating Billy, but Billy cheated by breaking a plate on his head. He had to resort to using a weapon since he was clearly losing his fight when purely going hand to hand. Dude needs to improve his defense lmao
Angelo Scarberry at 1:54, his problem is that he got way too cocky and then Jonathan landed a shot that dazed him, then immediately another one that dropped him. If he played it smart and avoided that one, then landed another himself (like how he had him rocked right before that), he probably could’ve won that. Lol poor Steve and his lack of keeping his guard up 😂
I love how the bullies run away as soon as the victim fights back lol sucks to suck huh ? Got all that power but when someone stands up to them now they’re scared. Jonathan had every right to do what he did
Nerd Mysteria I mean in this situation idk what he was supposed to think. Maybe I don’t remember it right but it from his point of view it seemed sketchy from Nancy
Season 1 was probably one of the few perfect seasons of television I’ve seen, 2 and 3 had its own problems and 4 is cool as fuck but also has a few problems
I always loved him, except for this scene, where I wanted to stab him with a knife, for disrespecting Nancy, who he should know, wouldn’t do anything to hurt him like cheating, and for coming after Jonathan’s family.
I never hated him. He's pretty much justified if you look at it from his perspective, although he went too far sometimes like writing "whore Nancy Wheeler" and taunting Johnathan about Will's missing and his dad but that's just because he had the wrong kind of friends around him.
Not really, if uve ever been punched in the face u don't tend to give a shit what's going on around u, ull push people, tables, chairs, anything outta ur way to just to get at them. U see red. At least that's how it's always been for me.
Well he never defeated the Demogorgon and smashed the military dude's head in with a phone. Also, Steve probably never had a real fight before fighting Jonathan and was caught off-guard. Billy on the other hand had to fight for himself all his life and was physically way beyond Steve. In real life strength is subjective, it all comes down to the moment, even if you are way more experienced, your opponent could get lucky, or you could just have a bad day.
BADWOLF he did defeat the demogorgon not by himself but he did defeat it, and he was on the winning side of the fight with billy before billy grabbed the plate🤷🏾♂️, also it’s a military man he should’ve been more aware then to let a regular boy hit him with a phone, and u say in real life but it’s not this is a show bud
BADWOLF he dodged the demogorgons claw at point blank range while the lights were flickering, but loses to johnathan after dodging and counter his first punch😑, the writers simply did Steve bogus af
Did anyone else go ballistic at this part?? I mean my adrenaline was pumping when I saw John beating the hell out of Steve! I can't be the only one was so hype.
what a lot of people get wrong about this whole bananza is that the "love" that made Jonathan so "damn stupid" wasn't love for Nancy. He liked her sure, but just before he went crazy steve was talking shit about his family. it was the love for his family.
Ikr! That’s what I was thinking when that women was saying ‘that was out of love’ and stuff but he wouldn’t of done anything if steve hadn’t said all that. Which isn’t a bad thing it’s just he didn’t beat him up for Nancy
Some Russian? It was a trained guard. Also he lost against johnathan because he wasn’t trying to hurt him and he was caught off guard by the fight also johnathan was filled with adrenaline and billy won because he smashed a glass Plate over his head. So his losses had reasons behind them and his wins were extremely impressive
No name please stop trying to deffend a character, he WAS trying to hurt johnathan, thats why he was trying to punch him, Johnathan was filled with adrenaline, uhh so was he... And billy is generally just stronger, he works out far more.
I don’t see why everyone was so surprised that Steve was redeemed. If you really look at his character, he’s in a point in his life where he’s growing out of the bimbos he’s been with before and had really fallen for Nancy. He’s never been hurt before so he doesn’t know how to act when the love of his life seems to be cheating on him. I hated season 1 steve but once he ditches his friends and tries to fix the mess they made, that’s when he became my favorite
right? i just rewatched season 1 for the first time in years and noticed that throughout the whole season from the very beginning, there are many scenes where you can tell he has a big heart and isn’t always trying to be a jerk. like even the fact that he went back to jonathan’s house with the intention of apologizing to him one-on-one after the fight,it shows a lot about his character
Season 1: Learns how to dodge much better from Jonathan Season 2: Learns to use surrounding objects like Billy Season 3: Uses both things he learned to beat the Russian Guard
You know, Steve really had a chance to walk away even after mentioning Lonnie, who Jonathan obviously hates, and his mom, that would’ve just riled him up, but the moment he mentioned Will… *there was no turning back*
I feel like after Steve got some punches from Jonathan, he finally got a wake up call. He learned that his actions had consequences, to realize that other people had feelings, and to push back from being a douche. Steve is a perfect example of good character development.
One year later reply lol. But yeah it's kind of poetic that this is where the turning point for Steve's character began, and completely shifted for the finale with the Demogorgon.
@@jackdeviant2025 Haha yeah, it’s interesting to see when watching older episodes. It’s cool how he went from one of the most hated, to the most beloved. Meddling with the upside down changes you for good.😂
Yeah but Steve had every right to be upset too, his girl said she couldn't hang out with him so when he went to go check up on her he sees another dude in her room comforting her, Steve had every reason to react how he did as well. He did nothing wrong.
@@SSGFlare Yeah I agree that Steve had every right to be upset because if I saw what he saw, I wouldn’t be too thrilled either. However, to say he did nothing wrong is a stretch. Steve could’ve handled the situation way better. This is one of the core moments where he realized that he’s not untouchable and that his actions had consequences. Lmao Steve was an instigator, so he deserved that first punch.😂Luckily now he’s one of my favorite characters, alongside Nancy and Jonathan.
Its really good to see the victim kick the balls out of the bully for once, thats why i like this show, it doesn't constantly put in what you thinks gonna happen and it shakes it up and changes it and puts it in a different direction for a better scene
Dark_Sentinel_USA Billy "we wanted to make iredeemable" ya that's why he had an abusive dad cause that cliched totally isn't run into the ground and also hive mind
they really wrote steve's character so well from the beginning. i remember even as a kid watching this when it came out, i could tell that steve was different from the others. they didn't seem to care much and were just having fun making fun of nancy but steve was actually hurt: you could see it on his face. it really says a lot about his character.
Ahh back when steve was such a jerk now he's a single parent taking care of 6 kids Edit: just saw season 3 and i must say, they have a habit of making a character a jerk at first but actually have a tragic past also r.i.p H-Man and Badass B
Season 1: Gets beat up by Johnathan. Season 2: Gets beat up By Billy. Season 3: Beats up a Russian but gets beat up again during interrogation lol. Steve 1-3
I love that the writers didn't keep Steve as a typical bully throughout the series, his character development arc is probably one of the best things in the series
Steve started like an annoying guy who everybody hated and ended up like a legend who everybody loves and one of the best characters on Stranger things
This scene is always satisfying. Steve was talking so much shit here lol and Jonathan ends up handing it to him. He didn't even stop when the cops arrived
That line about Will made me see Steve as irredeemable back in Season 1. It's crazy how they managed to turn my most hated character back in Season 1 into my favorite one in Season 2 and 3, big props to the duff brothers
I agree. I love Steve now, but I absolutely despised him because of this scene. Not only what he said about Will, but Joyce, and saying that Jonathan was like his father which was really low considering Lonnie just tried to use Will's death to get money out of it but didn't care that Will died. I would have beat Steve's face in too for saying something that bad.
I'm glad Jonathan punched some sense into him. I understand that all of Steve's words really hurt him and triggered him to lash out, but Steve realized how much of a jerk he was being to Jonathan and what asshole friends he had. His character development is my favorite and that's why I ship Stonathan so much. Steve didn't think twice about how those words would make Jonathan feel because Steve isn't really loved like that. Steve doesn't have a brother or sister and he doesn't get the family bonds that Jonathan does. This all hits me too hard, they all deserve better. 😤
I think steve became stronger after that crazy fight cuz he got that medicine to become stronger and to become a better man so thats why he beat the demo-dogs
I love how Steve is one of the characters that has the most development. He was great in season 3 and you can see that he grew to be so much more than a jerk
I love how Steve gets his ass handed to him every season, but the Demogorgon and some random Russian soldier. It’s testament that Steve is a protector and not the tough guy he pretends to be.
@@lawsonstudios574 that's not right :D 2vs1 is gang beating someone, if they both have a problem they should fight 1v1 or billy should bring a friend of his too, so its fair
Steve is the definition of character development! He was such an ass in the first season, but from second to third, he’s probably one of the more likable characters ☺️
Rehaan Aamir To me I don’t care how many _“girls he can pull”_ he was kinda self centered back then, he seems way more genuine now and still gets the ladies ;). I respect your opinion though. 👍🏼
Rewatching this scene I noticed a detail I really like. The longer the fight goes on for, the worse Jonathan’s fighting form gets, and yet the more damage he does. Such a cool thing imo.
Anyone else notices Jonathans reaction: He walked away although Steve was rude to him, but the second he said: "Your whole family is full of screw ups" he stopped. He doesn't give a shit what Steve thinks of him, but he got mad the second he insulted his mom and brother. His anger got stronger when Steve spoke about Joyce and he looked to the side for a split second, but still he controlled his anger. He really snapped the second Steve said: "I'm not surprised what happened to your brother" Although Jonathan knew that Will might be alive at that point he also knew Steve thinks, Will has died. Steve intentionally spoke about his "dead" brother like that and that's when he had enough. I love these little details. Jonathan never cared about what others thought of him, but he always care how people thought about his mother and brother.
Also notice how Jonathan doesn’t really care what Steve said about Nancy. It seems like he doesn’t care what anyone says unless it’s about his mother and especially his brother. Really sets up Jonathan sacrificing himself for Will. Although I doubt the duffers care about his character outside the shitty love triangle with Nancy and Steve which never mattered in his character
@@Tonycillian5 actually he was already getting a little riled up when Steve told Nancy to go to hell, which is why Flo even suspected that Jonathan was Nancy's boyfriend, but the overall exploding point was him getting compared to his douche bag father and then of course when he insulted will and Joyce
That was the moment John humbled who Steve was pretending to be cause of his idiotic friends , and later Dustin brought out who Steve really is on the inside, a weirdo goofball just like the rest of the crew 🖤
@@Mr44andMore it's not that black and white. There was no malicious intent. That said I wouldn't take it well if a guy did it to me tbh. Doesn't matter what the reason was I'd disapprove even if understood
After seeing the entirety of this series (all the way until Season 3) this really showcases the growth of Steve as a character. How he’s gone from a bully joining with the wrong people, to a hero and a good boyfriend, to a brother figure to the kids and becoming his true self... Dad Steve.
I love this scene because before this, Johnathan bottles everything up. Like he stops himself from crying about will even even in front of his mom. So he fights with determination and anger. The bullying, the horrible father, the missing brother, and crazy mother. He just lets it all out.
I don't know why they reduced Jonathan's screen time in S4 , he is one of the most bravest character (alongwith steve and hopper) i hope we will witness much of him in vol.2 because, He has been one of my fav's till S3
1:13 is really powerful in hindsight. it really showcases steve’s development. he went from making homophobic insults to completely accepting robin, which is a huge improvement. i also wonder if it’s part of the reason jonathan wanted to make sure will knew he loved him no matter what after the van scene? maybe he was remembering this and wanted to make sure will had someone supporting him when the rest of the world (and even their own friend group if he didn’t believe steve changed that much) wouldn’t.
@Paddy Bateman i know, that’s the point. it was still homophobic (and transphobic), even if it was normalized at that time. and the word itself isn’t bad, it’s just not an insult anymore. it’s only bad if someone does try to use it as such. but even then, it’s more the connotation than the word itself.
Crazy how quickly Steve turned around as a character. I was almost _cheering_ when I first saw this scene where it was just so satisfying to see Jonathan finally giving Steve his just deserts; one season later, Steve had become my favourite character and has stayed that way ever since
Steve was a character who was hated and then he became loved, he was homophobic here and now his best friend is a lesbian. His character arc is amazing
Not really. Steve blew up his social circle to be with Nancy. All they did was turn Steve into Jonathan. He will be the social outcast now. They will form a very typical love triangle in season 2. Its pretty cliche imo.
true....for now at least....it would have been too much of a jump if she left steve for Jonathan...their relationship needs to build...though nancy didn't look happy at the end at the last episode
Dang Jonathan is strong he took 3 at once because he fought Steve than the other guy jumped in to separate them than he beat Steve up than the other guy jumped back in and Jonathan keeper pushing him away and even broke the cops nose and still went on beating up Steve and than got token down

@@shanecorcoran2542 s1 and s2 are still the best, then s4 is good bc of vecna being the villian , and last is s3.
i do too
i do lowkey miss when it was sorta kinda realistic within but 3 and 4 are my favorite seasons
Hopefully, they will have that in Season 5
This scene proves that beating the sense into someone works sometimes, this is a turning point in his character
I love how everyone went from hating Steve in the first season and now everyone loves him that's pure character development right there
ya
I didn't entirely hate him s1 but he's definitely my favourite character after Billy fight, single mother caregiver, and his bond with Dustin.
Phat Albert I always loved him
I always loved him, except for this scene, where I wanted to stab him with a knife, for disrespecting Nancy, who he should know, wouldn’t do anything to hurt him like cheating, and for coming after Jonathan’s family.
I never hated him. He's pretty much justified if you look at it from his perspective, although he went too far sometimes like writing "whore Nancy Wheeler" and taunting Johnathan about Will's missing and his dad but that's just because he had the wrong kind of friends around him.
Respect to Steve pushing Tommy away when the two of them could of ganged up on him.
Shit good point lmao
Not really, if uve ever been punched in the face u don't tend to give a shit what's going on around u, ull push people, tables, chairs, anything outta ur way to just to get at them. U see red. At least that's how it's always been for me.
@@seanm6667 Steve had not the same level of anger as Jonathan and the other dude wouldn't help in this situation
Ye but before punching steve jonathan should've said "square up nigga"
nah he wanted to prove alpha maleness
Steve: loses to 2 teenagers
Steve: defeats a demogrogon and military Russian man
*Logic*
Well he never defeated the Demogorgon and smashed the military dude's head in with a phone. Also, Steve probably never had a real fight before fighting Jonathan and was caught off-guard. Billy on the other hand had to fight for himself all his life and was physically way beyond Steve. In real life strength is subjective, it all comes down to the moment, even if you are way more experienced, your opponent could get lucky, or you could just have a bad day.
BADWOLF he did defeat the demogorgon not by himself but he did defeat it, and he was on the winning side of the fight with billy before billy grabbed the plate🤷🏾♂️, also it’s a military man he should’ve been more aware then to let a regular boy hit him with a phone, and u say in real life but it’s not this is a show bud
BADWOLF he dodged the demogorgons claw at point blank range while the lights were flickering, but loses to johnathan after dodging and counter his first punch😑, the writers simply did Steve bogus af
Yeah exactly🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@BlazeQuadZ oh i didnt know that cuz last time i checked steve carried both of nancy and jonathan's ass to victory
He not only stood up for himself he really whooped Steve’s ass 🤣
I mean, it was a pretty even fight until the end
@@oreo2979 that’s basically how every fight with a winner goes
@@Ihatescales.mp4 true. 😂😂😂😂
😂 no. No he didnt
@@Veryniceandveryevil youre right he didnt whoop his ass he completely destroyed from the face of this universe 😂
Did anyone else go ballistic at this part?? I mean my adrenaline was pumping when I saw John beating the hell out of Steve! I can't be the only one was so hype.
HypeSquad_ HD season 2 fight scene is good Steve vs Billy
HypeSquad_ HD hell yeah. Favorite scene outta the whole show.
HypeSquad_ HD I was jumping ngl 😂
When I was watching this scene a year ago I was like, "OOOOH! OH SHIT KICK HIS ASS"
Really well done scene
I was so hyped too, it just gave me that feeling to go in the tv and help johnathon fuck steve up.
what a lot of people get wrong about this whole bananza is that the "love" that made Jonathan so "damn stupid" wasn't love for Nancy. He liked her sure, but just before he went crazy steve was talking shit about his family. it was the love for his family.
Ikr! That’s what I was thinking when that women was saying ‘that was out of love’ and stuff but he wouldn’t of done anything if steve hadn’t said all that. Which isn’t a bad thing it’s just he didn’t beat him up for Nancy
Noooo... Really. *Sarcasm*
Steve has only won two fights
Demogorgan
Some Russian
Edit:anyone else notice on how every season steve has a messed up face in the finale
And Billy
@Black Balloons Oh yeah, i forgot about that sorry
Steve is the Character I loved the most in all 3 seasons 🖤
Some Russian? It was a trained guard. Also he lost against johnathan because he wasn’t trying to hurt him and he was caught off guard by the fight also johnathan was filled with adrenaline and billy won because he smashed a glass Plate over his head. So his losses had reasons behind them and his wins were extremely impressive
No name please stop trying to deffend a character, he WAS trying to hurt johnathan, thats why he was trying to punch him, Johnathan was filled with adrenaline, uhh so was he... And billy is generally just stronger, he works out far more.
I’m so proud of Jonathan for winning this fight
Same
Me too

@@user-ej6nz3yp9n Steve Harrington got knocked out by a guy *half* his size.
F Jonathan. Steve is bether a undred percent .
I don’t see why everyone was so surprised that Steve was redeemed. If you really look at his character, he’s in a point in his life where he’s growing out of the bimbos he’s been with before and had really fallen for Nancy. He’s never been hurt before so he doesn’t know how to act when the love of his life seems to be cheating on him. I hated season 1 steve but once he ditches his friends and tries to fix the mess they made, that’s when he became my favorite
Even when he's being a jerk here, he tells his friend to stay away from the fight, keeping it 1 on 1, which I respected
I felt so proud of Steve when he ditched his friends and became a mom to 7 kids. Yeah, he is my favorite character too. :)
right? i just rewatched season 1 for the first time in years and noticed that throughout the whole season from the very beginning, there are many scenes where you can tell he has a big heart and isn’t always trying to be a jerk. like even the fact that he went back to jonathan’s house with the intention of apologizing to him one-on-one after the fight,it shows a lot about his character
@@hundo3k798 And the scene were he told his friend to shut up, when his friend said Jonathan killed his brother.
Damn compared to season 1 steve, he's grown so much now :')
His beating was a wake-up call to stop hanging out with bullies and find his own way, hence he becomes a character we root for.
Tell me about it. Makes me want to watch both seasons in a row.
This is the Jonathan we all miss :(
Don’t worry man he probably still got the rage in him
Jonathan is great in every season
Angry for being bullied?
@@Shejensenonmyacklesnot in s4
Johnathan fell so Steve could rise
Season 1: Learns how to dodge much better from Jonathan
Season 2: Learns to use surrounding objects like Billy
Season 3: Uses both things he learned to beat the Russian Guard
I don't think he learned dodging from Jonathan
@@OmaSlayer but he dodged way better after that fight
Season 4: Learns to use telekinesis from El
Season 5: learns to ascend to godhood from Vecna
@@pen2660 i thought i got spoiled for a second LOL
You know, Steve really had a chance to walk away even after mentioning Lonnie, who Jonathan obviously hates, and his mom, that would’ve just riled him up, but the moment he mentioned Will… *there was no turning back*
I feel like after Steve got some punches from Jonathan, he finally got a wake up call. He learned that his actions had consequences, to realize that other people had feelings, and to push back from being a douche. Steve is a perfect example of good character development.
One year later reply lol. But yeah it's kind of poetic that this is where the turning point for Steve's character began, and completely shifted for the finale with the Demogorgon.
@@jackdeviant2025 Haha yeah, it’s interesting to see when watching older episodes. It’s cool how he went from one of the most hated, to the most beloved. Meddling with the upside down changes you for good.😂
Yeah but Steve had every right to be upset too, his girl said she couldn't hang out with him so when he went to go check up on her he sees another dude in her room comforting her, Steve had every reason to react how he did as well. He did nothing wrong.
@@SSGFlare Yeah I agree that Steve had every right to be upset because if I saw what he saw, I wouldn’t be too thrilled either. However, to say he did nothing wrong is a stretch. Steve could’ve handled the situation way better. This is one of the core moments where he realized that he’s not untouchable and that his actions had consequences. Lmao Steve was an instigator, so he deserved that first punch.😂Luckily now he’s one of my favorite characters, alongside Nancy and Jonathan.
Aye all I know is season 5 Jonathan got the season 3 hair cut and the season 1 outfit so he's gonna be in prime.
Its really good to see the victim kick the balls out of the bully for once, thats why i like this show, it doesn't constantly put in what you thinks gonna happen and it shakes it up and changes it and puts it in a different direction for a better scene
Dark_Sentinel_USA Billy "we wanted to make iredeemable" ya that's why he had an abusive dad cause that cliched totally isn't run into the ground and also hive mind
Dark_Sentinel_USA Steve was a bully but not THE bully. That’s Tommy who gets out of it scot-free.
Steve wasn't bullying..
He wasn’t even a bully
@@scendles7360 You call insulting not bullying? Under no circumstances can that be called not bullying even if it's just revenge.
they really wrote steve's character so well from the beginning. i remember even as a kid watching this when it came out, i could tell that steve was different from the others. they didn't seem to care much and were just having fun making fun of nancy but steve was actually hurt: you could see it on his face. it really says a lot about his character.
I can’t deal with the officer at 2:15 saying “my nose”😂
Underrated line
anybody else chanting "beat the shit out of him byers!" just me? Kay I'll be over here
Jonathan Byers = Super Saiyan
Yeah same
Same
BEAT THE FUCKING SHIT OUT OF HIM BYERS, KILL HIM!
Ahh back when steve was such a jerk now he's a single parent taking care of 6 kids
Edit: just saw season 3 and i must say, they have a habit of making a character a jerk at first but actually have a tragic past also r.i.p H-Man and Badass B
All For One he’s a single mom
All For One on god
6 kids*
goto what the sixth?

Season 1: Gets beat up by Johnathan.
Season 2: Gets beat up By Billy.
Season 3: Beats up a Russian but gets beat up again during interrogation lol.
Steve 1-3
No one can catch a break in Stranger Things! 😂
@@okdonnyalright Its mostly Steve and Joyce who gets it every season Haha
The third one shouldnt count he was tied up
@@tivionte961 He still got beat up.
@@OX1994AU Because he was tied up even if he wasn't did you think he would have beaten 3 Russian soldiers
Anyone hear that cop? Lmfao "My nose!!!"
Baconn Godd yes in the episode I was like " man forget you're nose!!"
Yakunin Redeemer lol he Said it like he wasn't in pain at all.
I love that the writers didn't keep Steve as a typical bully throughout the series, his character development arc is probably one of the best things in the series
Most satisfying moment in the show lmao
Steve has definitely changed since but he still isn’t great at determining people’s sexuality
This actually made me laugh pretty hard lmao
Steve's Dumped/curved streak 2-0, Steve's fight win streak 1-2, Steve's sexuality determining streak, 0-2.
1v1 fight streak*
😂😂😂
Nope ya right
Steve started like an annoying guy who everybody hated and ended up like a legend who everybody loves and one of the best characters on Stranger things
This scene is always satisfying. Steve was talking so much shit here lol and Jonathan ends up handing it to him. He didn't even stop when the cops arrived
Really who can blame Johnathan for beating the piss out of Steve? I certainly don’t.
SEaster IslanderS me neither. 100%
In season 1 jonathan is creepy as hell
@@JourneyToTheCage I agree
Steve got what he's needs for being rude
You seen season 2 and 3 now?
That line about Will made me see Steve as irredeemable back in Season 1. It's crazy how they managed to turn my most hated character back in Season 1 into my favorite one in Season 2 and 3, big props to the duff brothers
I agree. I love Steve now, but I absolutely despised him because of this scene. Not only what he said about Will, but Joyce, and saying that Jonathan was like his father which was really low considering Lonnie just tried to use Will's death to get money out of it but didn't care that Will died. I would have beat Steve's face in too for saying something that bad.
I'm glad Jonathan punched some sense into him. I understand that all of Steve's words really hurt him and triggered him to lash out, but Steve realized how much of a jerk he was being to Jonathan and what asshole friends he had. His character development is my favorite and that's why I ship Stonathan so much. Steve didn't think twice about how those words would make Jonathan feel because Steve isn't really loved like that. Steve doesn't have a brother or sister and he doesn't get the family bonds that Jonathan does. This all hits me too hard, they all deserve better. 😤
Aero Haster this comment ^ right here is the *best* comment. I couldn't have said it better. :)
Good analysis. The writing in this show is so underrated.
Aero Haster have you watched s2
straight facts
I think steve became stronger after that crazy fight cuz he got that medicine to become stronger and to become a better man so thats why he beat the demo-dogs
I miss this Jonathan, now he's just stoned every fucking scene, and Steve has all the fan-service.
What would have happened if Argyle had been in this scene with Jonathan? What would have happened differently?
2:16 listen closely and you’ll hear a Roblox oof
Jordanj daboss wtf 😂
Yooo wtf did they do that on purpose 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Holy shit hahah😂
There’s a glitch in the matrix
WTH
"We beat Steve's ass"-Jonathan and Billy
We were all rooting for Steve against Billy, though.
Matthew Christiansen I wasn't...😅
Billy vs Jonathan= billy whooping that ass.
Steve just gets his ass beat 24/7 lolll
OX1994AU 😂
I love how Steve is one of the characters that has the most development. He was great in season 3 and you can see that he grew to be so much more than a jerk
I love how Steve gets his ass handed to him every season, but the Demogorgon and some random Russian soldier. It’s testament that Steve is a protector and not the tough guy he pretends to be.
I wanna see Jonathan fight Billy
Stray Shottz dam right after both boys beat Steve ass
Billy would destroy Jonathan.
Rose Reese You never know to be honest, the thing I want to see the most tho is Jonathan AND Steve vs Billy
@@lawsonstudios574 that's not right :D 2vs1 is gang beating someone, if they both have a problem they should fight 1v1 or billy should bring a friend of his too, so its fair
He got beated up by some kids Jonathan could easyly screw him up
Steve is the definition of character development! He was such an ass in the first season, but from second to third, he’s probably one of the more likable characters ☺️
Rehaan Aamir To me I don’t care how many _“girls he can pull”_ he was kinda self centered back then, he seems way more genuine now and still gets the ladies ;). I respect your opinion though. 👍🏼
Rehaan Aamir Yeah I completely understand what you mean. He’s not really a lady “magnet” anymore, but to me he seems fine on his own for now
Back when Jonathan was a badass
yeah johnathan was pretty much the main character of season 1
Can you pass me the olive oil?
@@TitanusGojiraEditz That's wine.
Season 4 Jonathan was on drugs if I remember correctly 😂
@@Indocrypticno he was not 😂
Steve gets the shit kicked out of him once per season, but this was the only time he ever truly deserved it.
Don't mess with Daryl Dixon
Exactly
thank you i thought i was the only one!

Who the fuck is Daryl Dixon ?
Lmao thats who he reminded me of. Darryl and Dwight

no one messes with daryl dixon and gets away with it
Copied comment.
don't leave now. i know the man but i dont get the joke
That's Charlie Heaton
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!
Rewatching this scene I noticed a detail I really like. The longer the fight goes on for, the worse Jonathan’s fighting form gets, and yet the more damage he does. Such a cool thing imo.
What would have happened if Argyle had been in this scene with Jonathan? What would have happened differently?
@@matheusguedes9847 I assume he probably would've tried to get Steve and Billy to stop fighting and smoke some joints with him lol.
I Cheered so hard for Jonathan in this scene back then.
Well now.... king steve is the best. King steve is a Legend
Man, it says A LOT how much Steve has changed after this that he's basically one of the faces of the series now.
season 1: “i’m not surprised what happened to will”
season 2/3: *practically babysits him and his friends constantly*
Anyone else notices Jonathans reaction:
He walked away although Steve was rude to him, but the second he said:
"Your whole family is full of screw ups" he stopped. He doesn't give a shit what Steve thinks of him, but he got mad the second he insulted his mom and brother.
His anger got stronger when Steve spoke about Joyce and he looked to the side for a split second, but still he controlled his anger.
He really snapped the second Steve said:
"I'm not surprised what happened to your brother"
Although Jonathan knew that Will might be alive at that point he also knew Steve thinks, Will has died. Steve intentionally spoke about his "dead" brother like that and that's when he had enough.
I love these little details. Jonathan never cared about what others thought of him, but he always care how people thought about his mother and brother.
Also notice how Jonathan doesn’t really care what Steve said about Nancy. It seems like he doesn’t care what anyone says unless it’s about his mother and especially his brother. Really sets up Jonathan sacrificing himself for Will. Although I doubt the duffers care about his character outside the shitty love triangle with Nancy and Steve which never mattered in his character
@@Tonycillian5 actually he was already getting a little riled up when Steve told Nancy to go to hell, which is why Flo even suspected that Jonathan was Nancy's boyfriend, but the overall exploding point was him getting compared to his douche bag father and then of course when he insulted will and Joyce
Steve still ended up one of my favorite characters 😂. And trust me watching Jonathan kick his ass was very satisfying. But he had Redemption
I love that Jonathan started this scene by beating the development into Steve. Fully deserved for bringing up Will like that.
bro Jonathan will always be my fav character, he put up a good fight ngl
That was the moment John humbled who Steve was pretending to be cause of his idiotic friends , and later Dustin brought out who Steve really is on the inside, a weirdo goofball just like the rest of the crew 🖤
Steve deserved every punch he got there. Mentioning WILL!!! Wayy too far.
Funny thing is, Steve is now a really likeable guy.
The other guy deserved more. Stalking and taking pictures of girls when their nude
@@Mr44andMore it's not that black and white. There was no malicious intent. That said I wouldn't take it well if a guy did it to me tbh. Doesn't matter what the reason was I'd disapprove even if understood
Yeah until the Cops came in that was way too far.
This comment feels weird after watching Season 4
Steve talked all that shit to Jonathan and still Lost.
When Jonathan was punching him I was like Damn. Jonathan should have done that in the first episode
in that moment, Jonathan became our hero
After seeing the entirety of this series (all the way until Season 3) this really showcases the growth of Steve as a character.
How he’s gone from a bully joining with the wrong people, to a hero and a good boyfriend, to a brother figure to the kids and becoming his true self... Dad Steve.
MOM STEVE
I love this scene because before this, Johnathan bottles everything up. Like he stops himself from crying about will even even in front of his mom. So he fights with determination and anger. The bullying, the horrible father, the missing brother, and crazy mother. He just lets it all out.
I don't know why they reduced Jonathan's screen time in S4 , he is one of the most bravest character (alongwith steve and hopper) i hope we will witness much of him in vol.2 because, He has been one of my fav's till S3
1:13 is really powerful in hindsight. it really showcases steve’s development. he went from making homophobic insults to completely accepting robin, which is a huge improvement. i also wonder if it’s part of the reason jonathan wanted to make sure will knew he loved him no matter what after the van scene? maybe he was remembering this and wanted to make sure will had someone supporting him when the rest of the world (and even their own friend group if he didn’t believe steve changed that much) wouldn’t.
@Paddy Bateman i know, that’s the point. it was still homophobic (and transphobic), even if it was normalized at that time. and the word itself isn’t bad, it’s just not an insult anymore. it’s only bad if someone does try to use it as such. but even then, it’s more the connotation than the word itself.
Crazy how quickly Steve turned around as a character. I was almost _cheering_ when I first saw this scene where it was just so satisfying to see Jonathan finally giving Steve his just deserts; one season later, Steve had become my favourite character and has stayed that way ever since
2:13
That “Oh! My nose!”
I can’t- 😂😂😂😂
After watching Season 3 Steve is the most transformed character in the series
MrBelugaPlays frrr
Steve was a character who was hated and then he became loved, he was homophobic here and now his best friend is a lesbian. His character arc is amazing
I like that Nancy ended up with Steve because it made this show more realistic and relatable.
Not really. Steve blew up his social circle to be with Nancy. All they did was turn Steve into Jonathan. He will be the social outcast now. They will form a very typical love triangle in season 2. Its pretty cliche imo.
true....for now at least....it would have been too much of a jump if she left steve for Jonathan...their relationship needs to build...though nancy didn't look happy at the end at the last episode
***** Maybe because she sees what Jonathan called her out for in the woods is becoming true.
NOOOOOOOO I NEVER WILL AGREE WITH YOU NO MATTER HOW GOOD OF ARGUEMENT
+Brandon Reed
Damn, that was pretty accurate comment now that season 2 is released.
I hated this man....
And now this man is the greatest person on Netflix, and if he dies my Netflix subscription is going down with him.
remember when we all hated steve and now we all absolutely adore him
Season 1 was something else
This episode made me so happy
which episode is that?
Who’s here after Steve finally won a fight?
Got beat so bad he had goated character development
Lmfao
This was Steve's humbling moment, from here on he started turning to the good side
John handeled his business
I don’t care what you say, but Steve totally deserved that
Right, he was such a douche.. I don’t know why people simp over him or something
I mean, he even thinks so too by the time of Season 4.
Dang Jonathan is strong he took 3 at once because he fought Steve than the other guy jumped in to separate them than he beat Steve up than the other guy jumped back in and Jonathan keeper pushing him away and even broke the cops nose and still went on beating up Steve and than got token down
I love Jonathan. He is the best character
