Hey Everyone, we’re excited to be starting a new Journey watching *The Last of Us*!!! We have to full season of *The Last Of Us on our Patreon: www.patreon.com/ThePerfectMix plus we just started our Journey watching *Breaking Bad* and *The Boys*
@theperfectmixx you should check out the video game, it pretty good especially with the characters
Two hit Sony shows back to back.
the game is exactly like the show, u go through levels, buildings sneaking through listening for the zombies, stealth is the best way to handle. it’s not choice based more like god of war ragnarok and god of war 4 story based
@@jacobzukaitis2995 yep, exactly
Please Watch IT Chapter 2
Bill and Frank won the apocalypse. They lived long and happy lives and went out on their terms. Most people in this world go out by being ripped apart, starving, shot, dying from infection, etc. You don't see many stories like theirs in "zombie" fiction.
Bill made the house safe. Frank made the house a home.
@@GoblinGhouly yeah, and?
@GoblinGhouly So is that a problem? Because yes they were. Doesn't make or break thr story.
@@CapnLubeHandleshe said something about them be gay didn’t he
@@KevinJoseph08 indeed. Pretty typical dirty delete
Masterpiece Bill and Frank's episode is not expecting this to be that good thought it was just going to be a filler boring onto episode 4 and episode 4 was going to be the masterpiece episode but I was wrong three episode three masterpiece
imagine playing a video game and the daughter dies 5 minutes exactly like this
...absolutely unheard of at the time....
and it's actually harder than the show scene...
I honestly cried when that happened😢
Also, she's the first one you play as and develop a small connection to. That whole intro sequence is a shock.
@@MickeyStartraveller yeah, I love pedro, but the pain in Troy's voice is just unmatched.
@@MickeyStartravellerfacts
idk if anyone mentioned this on your patreon, but one really cool thing from the first episode is that joel and sarah avoided becoming infected multiple times. the fungus got into the flour and sugar supply, so they could have been infected had they actually had pancakes like sarah had planned, ate the biscuits and cookies the neighbour had offered, or from the cake had joel not forgotten about it. i just love the detail in this show, and i’m so happy you’ve watched it!!
was coming to comment this hopefully more people like this so they see this little detail
Such a good detail. And the Atkens diet is a low carb diet so that means no carbs or sugar. And also why Ellie is the only one that can eat sandwiches because she’s immune to the bread.
@@ryanmasciello6494 And here is my question about that sandwich: Where did she get a sandwich if nobody has been able to eat bread for the past 20 years? Why would anyone grow wheat, make flour and bake bread if no one on Earth can eat it? That bread certainly isn't twenty years old.
@@testfire3000 My question is how is she able to eat a chicken sandwich with zero refrigeration? It's just been sitting in her backpack since she got it, over night, and however long she munched on it. Can chicken be salted like other meats and preserved?
@@Ghostfriend7100 Yes, it can. Salted or smoked.
I actually like the way they handled Bill and Frank way better here than in the game. Sure, his short-lived banter with Ellie will be missed, but I am absolutely not at all complaining about what we got instead.
The game is still better than the garbage show
@@Undercapsule ITS THE SAME THING XDDD
@@Undercapsuleget over it
@@Undercapsule the writers of the game wrote the whole show.
@@Undercapsuleur so annoying
Bill (Nick Offerman) won his first Emmy with this role. This whole episode was basically a break from how shi**y the world is and even though it has all gone to hell, there are still some happy stories out there. Plus it hasn't been confirmed which, but Frank was suffering from a neurological disease.
To make u fall in love with a daughter in 20 mins, and to tell the love story of a couple in only 1 episode… I’ve never seen storytelling this well done before. Some of the best writing in television I’ve ever watched. Masterful 👌🏾. Great reaction guys!
In the video game, the daughter dying hits just a bit harder because you get to play as her for a while before everything goes to s*it. You see a birthday card that she forgot to give her dad say: "Congratulations! You're not a fossil (yet) Dear dad, Let's see...you're never around, you hate the music I'm into, you practically despise the movies I like, and yet somehow you still manage to be the best dad every year. How do you do that? Happy Birthday, pops! Sarah." It really hits when you're trying to run from the infected but you're slow because you're holding you're daughter, only to have her die a few agonizing minutes later thinking: They were so close😢. The love story is different than in the show and offers a different dynamic and perspective, but the way it was done in the show was great.
I disagree, I thought the show delivery fell flat compared to the games. Was way too fast and the whole show seemed like a "oo look at this remember this from the games? Good now let's move on" story went by way too quick and some notes just didn't hit as hard as the game. Wasn't a bad show but was just fine/ was missing alot imo
@@liammbiscwitnah, it was perfect as is. and I'm a hardcore fan of the games. Knowing a thing or to abuot adapting things to moves or TV, they did an amazing job of delivering the core sto ry and themes from the game so the small screen
@marturomano Was bad but to say perfect is over shooting it, the bonds seemed rushed compared to the games.. I wanted to see the series a few episodes longer and include alot more of the smaller details because those is what made the games what they were. To me everything came off as ticking bullet points and even my partner who hadn't played the games told me she thought it went too quick
@@liammbiscwit you saying it was bad? Really? Almost everyone agrees its one of the best tv shows recently. But to each their own. My mom and a lot of other people I know that had no clue about the game loved it. And my friends that did play the game as myself loved it even more
Just to be clear, the fungus doesn't just grow in people. It grows in the ground as well. It's the fungus in the ground that can transfer information along all the connected fungi. In ep 2 the other infected were lying on fungus and receieved the information from the Firefly base fungus connected to it and woke up the zombies. Killing a zombie by itself does not tell other zombies in other locations that a zombie died. You need the fungus in the ground to transmit that info.
yes..kind of dumb that they didnt pick that up
@@the_realmkc4452sometimes people miss things. Does someone call you dumb whenever you miss something or something goes over your head? It happens.
The Bill and Frank episode is so good. It is a beautiful depiction of hope and happiness in the middle of a hopeless world.
100% agree. Definitely one of my favorite episodes
😂
way better than it was in the game, their story in the game was so depressing 😭
ive been a fan of the game for years so here’s something’s about the show (no spoilers)
- the game ISNT decision based, the storyline is straight forward
- the disease spread through flour and sugar in the beginning
- in the game we didnt meet frank, instead we got a bunch of silly drama between ellie and bill (they despised each other) but they changed it, imo i love this storyline SO MUCH BETTER. as much as i love the ellie and bill drama i also love a traumatizing and heartbreaking love story and episode three gave us just that.
- the woman who plays marlene in the show also voiced and acted for marlene in the game (the game was filmed using motion capture, sometimes actors will voice a character but wont do the mo-cap for them idk i just loved that tidbit)
- the shirt sarah wears in the beginning was actually based off neil druckmans daughters stuffed animal when he first made the game in 2013, he took the name of the animal and turned it into a concert shirt which i love
- bella ramsey who plays ellie is british but learned how to talk in an american accent from cuss words which fits ellie’s character so well
- in the game they had spores which would be in locations like underground where infected would be stuck in for a long time and the spores would develop but they sadly took it out of the show
- SUPER SUPER SUPER SAD detail that isn’t shown in the show but still applies to it is that the infection takes over the brain but leaves the host alive, this means EVERY SINGLE INFECTED is still conscious and aware of everything that is happening but they just cant control their body. in the game if you listen closely (the easiest one to find being with the first infected you come across after the 20 years who’s eating a human) it can be heard saying something along the lines of “im so sorry i dont want to do this” through the growls or whatever.
- my FAVORITE fact: the disease is actually a real thing. so far it has only been able to infect ants but its a real disease
uhhh yeah thanks for listening to me yap i might add more later idk
after playing the games, learning about the ant part in the show deeply disturbs me...
The episode with Bill and Frank is probably one of my favourite episodes in a show ever.
😂
@@rlciii Don't be a cringelord for all your life 👍
I feel a bit left out when it comes to episode 3. All the reviews were incredible leading up to it, and I was super excited to see it.
I have to say, I just found it all a bit dull? I get why that story is being told in this world, but it was still a fairly generic romance that I didn't really feel much for.
@@MoldyMojoMonkey I think a lot of it has to do with that episode having the most original content among the 9. The rest of the episodes pretty much strictly follow the game's narrative, but that episode was something new. So both first-time watchers and people who played the game went in blind. There's also the fact that people valued the representation of gay characters, as it's not often that gay characters get represented as well as these two on screen.
I know it get's overshadowed by the amazing Bill and Frank episode. But the episode with Tess and her dying is one of my favorites. The summation of their relationship in just their few glances at the ends and how he realised he loved her in his way and that the only way he could show it was by looking after Ellie. The acting was off the charts. The fear in her eyes, the not wanting to die but knowing she had to and her will slowly fading with the kiss with the infected as it took over her mind all told through pretty entirely through her eyes. So good.
Bill and Frank was probably one of the best and most emotional tv episodes i ever saw! And the fact it was about a gay couple it makes it even better!
Yeah like one of the few sweet representations of gay romance
The lovestory with these guys didn't felt weird. In my opinion this is often the case with homosexual lovestories. But this one felt real and authentic.❤
@@nikkixo6334 Exactly. It didnt feel forced, nor "gay for the sake of gay". It felt real, well written and relatable. Acting and cinematography was on point too.
@@RoxxSerm I think that's my favorite part, it didn't feel forced and they felt like real human beings who just happen to be gay and not stereotypes where being gay is somehow a whole ass personality
@@kuivia This right here! I'm not homophobic in the slightest, but I do get very annoyed when I see blatantly forced gay relationships or storylines in movies/shows nowadays. I think this episode proved that people don't actually hate gay people, they just hate it when it's forced.
I was 19 in 2003 and didn't have a cell phone. I am a big fan of The Last of Us, video games, and the HBO series. Fun fact. Merle Dandridge, who plays Marlene in The Last of Us HBO series, has also portrayed the character in The Last of Us game. Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey were the perfect choices to portray Joel and Ellie in The Last of Us TV series.
I think I had my first one around 2003, but I remember that texting wasn't a thing yet & they were all flip phones lol
Ellie - bad choice of actress.
@@44-zo3gt we knows why you're pulling that crap.😂
@@44-zo3gt Why?
I was 12 lol
Bill and Frank really were the perfect mix of a lone conspiracy prepper and a authentic harmonious lover of life.
Not sure if someone wider pointed this out, but Frank didn’t have cancer… he had some sort of neurological degenerative disease, like ALS or MS. That’s why he ended up wheelchair bound and could barely get out of bed on his own.
Great reaction as always!
6:57 in the game Joel explains that's what most people did, until supplies began to dwindle and then neighbor turned on neighbor. I believe he said "once the food ran out then you got to see what people were truly capable of."
One of my favorite things that the showrunner said is that when Joel went to the bedroom, it was like the wind wouldn't let him in. Like some force in the natural world doesn't want that room disturbed. As if a love that pure needs to be preserved.
Didn’t bill say that he locked the bedroom door but left the window open so that it wouldn’t smell
Bill & Frank was such a crazy side story compared to the game. No one was ready for that, a really great adaptation story. Episode 3 & 8 are the best ones!!!
3, 6 and 8 are my favorite ones.
Druckman said that's how he would have written that part of the game if he had make it today. Video game Bill is a pessimistic warning to Joel. TV show Bill brings a more positive message
The reason that the infected were signaled when Tes died is because when the infected woke up he broke the vine that was holding on to his hand and the other infected felt it, that is why no infected came when Ellie killed the infected in the gas station because that infected wasn't connected to the Cordyceps (the fungus that you see growing out of them) that's why they were also being careful not to step on it when exploring the museum.
This show is an emotional rollercoaster. Highly recommend playing the games if you two own a PlayStation.
Where can I watch
"He fungus kissed her" 🤢😂😂😂
35:34 the way they made the same face 😂
This is hilarious, love it. Didnt recognize when i watched. That couple is the perfect mix.
Y'all misunderstand the whole "they're all connected" thing. It's not that ALL infected are connected at all times. It's the active and alive fungal vines that are everywhere and if THAT is disturbed while connected to someone, THEN other infected will know.
4 years of being alone...no, dude was alone his whole life.
Well put.
I mean there was still life around him. Tv, phones, other prepers etc. 4 years of 0 human contact isnt the same as being a loner in a society.
The only show that could ever make me cry at a hole in the ground.
I'll NEVER forget how swollen and disgustingly red my face was after sobbing my eyes out to episode 3 last year...
Episode 3 was so amazing. Whether having played the game or not, or whether lgbt or not it is just written so well as a nice break from the pace set up in episodes 1 and 2 before diving into the rest. Great stuff.
Just so you know the Bill and Frank stuff was changed from the game and reworked for the show and god dam it worked really well it’s the best episode of the show in my opinion.
Vince: “She ain’t got no seasoning on there” 🤣😂🤣😂😂😂😂😂 Shoshona face!
That was the blackest shit I’ve ever heard him say
Ep. 3 was one of my favorites if not my overall favorite. It showed you can still flourish and be happy in a SHTF world. And it was just done so beautifully. In an upcoming ep, there's an old Native-American couple who are basically the same way -- just living their best lives alone in a cabin.
This show does the game justice AND is brilliant when it takes creative freedom.
This episode is one of the best of all time in televison in my opinion. Really shows that love is love and that it does not matter betweem whom it is felt.
The song towards their end really got me on the edge of it but the "You were my purpose"-line finished me.
Literally my favorite episode of television is episode 3 I cry every time. So glad you all liked it
Bella Ramsey, who plays Ellie, was also in Game of Thrones, Lyanna Mormont
She's kid
She was around 10 years old when we first met her in season 6 and she was already badass
This show is insane. Acting is superb. Casting on point
If you have a playstation, I strongly urge you to play TLOU 1, the DLC and then 2. This universe is amazing, I’ll never stop talking about it.
I wish i could forget 2. Didnt like it, and not for the reasons most think i didnt like it for
They haven't Playstation 😂
Because they need money
@@RoxxSermWhy didn't you like it?
@@jbw3624i dont think Abbie is that much of an interesting/pivotal character, and the game shifted the focus on her relatively simple story/motivations for too many hours. Hours in which i would have prefered to visit flashbacks about former characters or current time happenings around and about Ellie.
@@RoxxSerm I can understand the flashback thing and certain Abby moments being too long but I gotta disagree with your opinion on her character. I think Abby is a great character and her story/motives are meant to be simple. I won’t spoil it for the reactors but what happened happened and she simply wanted to right that wrong. She was vengeful. Her story was never meant to be complicated, Ellie and Joel story is the complicated one.
Thanks you two for doing a great review of these episodes.
I'm old enough to remember the airing of the last episode of M.A.S.H. which at the time was considered the greatest episode in television history. But I can say as someone in his early 50's episode three "Long, Long Time" was so well crafted and better. Setting down in such a chaotic world this beautiful relationship that was real. The episode worked because it showed us the truth that even if a apocalypse happens, personal relations continue and blossom in some cases.
And it broke me emotionally for a couple of days after honestly.
So again, thank you for the review.
Vince in the beginning talking about how he’d only live in the apocalypse for one reason and that was Shashana, and then resonating so well and loving the Bill and Frank episode makes sense. Like Bill, Vince has his purpose.
Episode 3 is one of the best, if not *the* best, episodes of television ever
The ankle injury comment is so real. I’m a swimmer and I hurt my ankle 2 seasons ago and it still bothers me sometimes
For real, I sprained my ankle 6 years ago snowboarding and every now and again I’ll tweak it wrong and I’m pretty much down for a day when it happens lol
Bruhh The realest series you'll ever watch ❤❤
Oh my god! This was probably my favourite reaction to ep3! You were so genuine, kind, and amazing! I can't wait for your next react to TLoU! Thank you so much for this 💜
I have never clicked on anything so fast in my life! I am so excited. You guys are amazing
33:49 in the museum they were several floors up, so no fungus.
Just in case no one has mentioned it Bill and Franks story was made much more wholesome in the show than it was in the game. In the game Joel meets Bill who lives by himself in the town. He only alludes to having a huge fight with Frank and him leaving. Later you find Frank’s body, he having hung himself before he could even leave town since he got bit. He leaves Bill a note that still has some grudge left over and although you can tell Bill is very upset he just says “well to hell with you!” After he reads the note.
I actually really like that in the show we instead get to see a beautiful loving relationship with a happy ending
I really love watching your guys’ reactions, you’re a great couple with big hearts. 👍
The flashing green light in the first episode was transformers blowing.
Yea lots of people don’t understand that they blow up usually in green colors
Having played the game and watched this show… I cannot wait for y’all’s reaction to all of this season and for whenever season 2 comes out 😂
This is the first time watchin u guys. U 2 are so cute and loved your reaction. Will def be checking out more from u two!!
Never thought I’d hear “dead ass dies” in one sentence but…I kinda like it lol
You're right Vince btw...it's Fungi
I gotta praise whoever edited this. It feels so complete.
I will never not cry when I see the bill and Frank episode
I'm so glad you guys are watching this. I knew Shoshona was going to be wrecked by "Long, Long Time." It's quite easily my favorite episode of TV ever. I've etched it over a dozen times and I have yet to not cry uncontrollably. I can't wait for you to watch the rest of the series.
Nico Parker was perfect as Sarah!
You two seem so sweet together :) hope you are well
Bill and Frank episode is so beautiful! I have made multiple of my friends/family watch that episode and they loved the episode and cried at the end!!! It’s my second favorite episode of the show. My first favorite episode is the episode with Henry and Sam
6:26 it was airborne in the game via spores but they sadly got rid of the spores in the show
I love that the girl from the watch shop speaks Arabic it’s my first language so I enjoyed that
The doctor's monologue during the beginning of episode 2 is still my favorite moment of this series.
It fully embraces the grim tone and reality of the situation while keeping the human emotional response in play.
The doctor looking like shes going to start crying, while speaking about the only safer bet, is such a beautiful performance.
This was filmed in Alberta Canada. It's gorgeous if you get a chance to visit. Episode 2 was in Edmonton and I believe the rest was Calgary and Jasper/Banff
Thanks so much, Shoshana and Vince! 🧟♀ Episode 3 is one of the best hours of tv I've ever seen in my entire 57 years of life. 💞
Considering the "kill the gays" trope, Bill and Frank had the best life they could have. With all the possible ways a person can die in this world, they lived mostly safe and happy and went out on their terms. Their's was a great love story.
The Bill & Frank story always makes me tear up too 🥲 such a great episode
their reaction at that moment 24:34 was very good, in fact Ellie was a young woman with a great sense of humor, you will still die laughing at her joke book hahahaha
I love this show and i am really glad you are reacting to it
Loved how genuine you two are and can't wait for the next video 🩷
I've seen episode three (no exaggeration or hyperbole) over 40 times at this point, and I haven't cried harder than watching Shoshonna's reaction to Bill & Frank's "last dinner." Thank you both!!
Hope you two are having an great and awesome day ❤
Game Theory suggested it was from the bread-based material and I don't know if he was right before or after the show. Joel avoided the biscuits and didn't buy the cake, thus they never got infected by the fungus.
22:35 Single = fungus; plural = fungi.
They changed episode 3 from the game. Don't know if you plan on playing it, but Joel and Ellie meets actually run into Bill.
One of my favorite games of all time, this show is AMAZING, I'm super stoked to watch the rest of your reactions! Its a brutal and unforgiving journey
Episode 3 of this series is seriously one of the best episodes in any show ever. It's crazy. I hope you guys play the games [Part 1 & 2] one day, you guys will love it! Looking forward to the next reactions of this show :)
Fungus does this in real life but only to insects like ants and the game is not decision based its a third person horror survival game and the fungus is worst in the game because the fungus spores are in the air
Really looking forward to you two watching more of the series
Stepping on patches of cordyceps will alert the fungi, not killing them. Tess explained tendrils under the ground or on the ground. You step on a tendril or a patch, they will feel something and go to that area.
You guys rocked it!!!!!! Subscribed!!!!!!!! 3 def my favorite episode
This game is what I absolutely love about story driven games. When my wife and I played this game it was transformative of an experience and to see how well they did the opening sequence that leads to his daughter dying deserves praise. They really did this game justice and kept it as close to the game's story as they could.
I’m watching this video now after playing tlou like a million times and the Sarah death still got me teary eyed
“Your watch is Broken”. Right out of the game. THAG line hits hard. As in the watch his daughter gave him it’s like his life. The world and time stopped since the day she passed as the watch probably did. And the new little girl in his life noticed.
Delighted at how much you two enjoyed episode 3 in particular.
This tv series has made me weep during at least half the eps. & I'm okay with that. It's a high quality show that stands on its own-haven't played the game. Love season 1, irresistibly well-made (the thoughtful and understated dialog, the lighting, the music, the performances, etc.) with such beauty & such pain.
There are few beautiful moment's these days, s1 e3 was one, thank you Both for the reaction, keep e'm coming, kind regards Chris UK
You guys are in my top 3 reaction channels
Was a joy to watch with you guys!
I haven't seen a comment talk about it, but for the show they had the underground network of cordyceps because they didn't want to have the actors wearing gas masks, as the game had places full of spores that could lead to being infected, so they added the network of cordyceps that would alert the infected when stepped on or disturbed (like when the dead infected touched the patch, not when it was killed)
Bill and frank ❤❤❤ still my favorite episode maybe of all shows ever. So beautiful!
Episode three is the best show episode I have seen, ever. Brilliant writing, masterful acting. They tell such a big story with rather few, but well selected, scenes.
Acting is amazing
Apparently the episode about Bill and Frank won an award
Oh man, I so glad you’re getting into this! Can’t wait to see you react to the rest of the season!
Man, you guys handled episode 3 a million times better than I did. I cried for like 2 weeks lmfao.
Bill & Frank!❤😢
This show is really great and episode 3 is my favorite, too.
You two got a really great taste in series and movies. I have very much fun watching your videos. 🙂
Do you know "Yellowjackets"? I think you would like it very much.
I'm 39 and I still haven't found my Frank...wish I could. So lonely.
Lol i love yall faces especially to the old lady in the beginning 😂
33:31 "ohhhhhtheygattagetouttathrrr 👹" 😂😂
That was spectacular to see. So funny.
Thank you Vince for among my day saying you rock with RDC World those are my dawgs
The game isnt a decision based game, it’s a survival action game. Highly recommend playing it or watching the cut scenes on youtube
I truly enjoyed your reaction and discussion at the end. Like Frank and Bill, you are two beautiful people.
Great video guys! Looking forward to following this journey. Episode 3 was definitely great
the fungus arent connected at all times only sometimes in ceryain areas when they're laid on the ground. theres an underground fungus network called a mycelium and thays cant connect different parts of the fungus colony. u never know which u could or even stepping on some on the ground can alert colony members to your location
Fungi is actually the plural, but am liking your video. Think i'm subscribing.
33:40 The reason the ones within the museum didn't alert the horde was because they weren't linked together through the spores and fungus. The other ones were connected because there were literal tendrils of fungus running throughout them, so they were physically linked. It's not a psychological thing, it's a physical connection like a web.
Also, possible minor game spoilers ahead regarding Tess's death so don't read if you plan on playing:
I personally think they really did Tess dirty with her death in the show versus the game. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the show, but in the game, she died taking out several FEDRA soldiers to protect Ellie and Joel as they escaped. The show frustrated me because that ending wasn't the badass Tess I know from the games, and taking out infected doesn't have *nearly* the impact that taking out live people who are coming after you for personal, conscious reasons does. There will always be more infected. Fighting humans is much harder sometimes. That's one of the only very few gripes I have with the show adaptation.
