LOVED IT!!!!
Hopefully you guys will see this comment but they completely changed the infection in the series there are no spores read it in an article I can't remember but apparently the infection is like a hive mind the directors didn't want the cast to have masks on the majority of the show
I don't think there's any words for what I thought of the premiere. Other than FREAKING AWESOME. Felt like a movie than a TV series.
I am so satisfied
I don’t think that was Tess. I’m pretty sure he was dreaming of his wife. She was wearing different clothes than Tess was when she was caught. I wonder if they’ll go into his past before the outbreak at all
I knew Sarah's death was coming and it still hit hard. Hats off to the acting and directing.
Tbh I felt the game did it better than the show.
Immediately as I saw Joel pic her up and run in the Alley way I was already in tears
The young lady playing Sarah is the actor playing Joel's real life daughter.
it makes it even harder to watch :/
I like that Joel yells to Tommy knowing he's a combat veteran instinctively but also hopelessly, and Tommy though shocked, is also somewhat desensitized towards what he's seeing. It's a small detail.
I'm really impressed by the pilot, how great they seem to be balancing the familiar with the new stuff. Pedro seems to be owning Joel's role already and so does Bella as Ellie
I have to admit, I originally wanted Andrew Lincoln to be casted as Joel but Pedro Pascal has exceeded my expections with his acting. HBO did good hiring him.
@@theawesomeman9821 I wanted Hugh Jackman but Pedro is doing a solid performance.
@@nerdseyeview5017 Jackman would be an interesting choice, though I've never seen him in a non-mutant role and don't know how natural it would feel to watch him play a regular human.
I thought they were both great as well but everyone else was incredible in their roles too. Gabriel Luna in particular completely killed the role of Tommy. His voice was perfect
At first I was a bit worried but after I watched it. It’s so good
The fact that Pedro Pascal made a parental bond with an puppet work while wearing a full face helmet I think he will do amazing in this
LMFAO. Love this comment
Pedro never really played that character physically, it was always two or more stuntmen. Pedro was the voice and was rarely on set, only on episodes where he reveal his face.
@@Leotiquehe did play the character in person, even scenes where he doesn’t show his face. Just not all the time. You can tell when it’s him and when it’s Eastwood or another guy. He’s in at least 2 episodes per season where his face doesn’t show
@@Leotique he was in all the scenes that aren’t action
@@Leotique well he did sometime
THIS is how you adapt a video game, without making it a carbon copy, but still keeping all the best bits! Absolutely amazing first episode!
Not like some halo cough cough*
I was worried they were going to leave the "I sell hardcore drugs" part out, but they snuck it in there. Still my favorite line from the game.
Exactly. This adaptation actually understands what it means to be an adaptation. It cannot be a carbon copy, it has to be adapted to fit into the new format
Absolutely it's an incredible adaption so far! The actors embody the characters so well
@@netflixandchinchillaAgreed. Hearing that line again gave me soo much serotonin
This kick that Ellie does at 20:52 immediately sold me on the fact that Bella Ramsey is perfect casting. She nailed Ellie’s personality with he physical performance before she ever even said a word
I loved her reaction and the "you fucker" when the water drops came down on her when she was pulling on the chain.
That's where it was for me too lol!
I was so happy to see Bella prove the haters wrong already. Bella even sounded like Ellie, which really surprised me. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better live action Ellie, and the casting was just as good for everyone else!
Also she looks like Ashley Johnson
@@roarmbee7045 was thinking the same thing. One of the reasons I can't wait for the episodes where they flashback to Ellie's mother is that Ashley Johnson is playing that role and people unfamiliar with the game will get to see how realistically they will look as mother and daughter.
HBO and Naughty Dog definitely got it right but they always do
What a GOOD first episode. The fillers they added were a perfect adaptation for the story! Sarah’s scene broke me heart for the 10000th time :(
2:10 when I saw this I love this fill they put where instead of lab grown it was simply time in process to the rising temperatures giving way to a climate where they can thrive and I love that idea.
My heart was already clenching,knowing what was gonna happen and I was just like AHHH SHIT HERE WE GO AGAIN!!
We were all bracing for that moment
Pedro and Bella are obviously incredible, but I am absolutely blown away by how PERFECT Gabriel Luna is as Tommy
The way they showed how quickly this world will take out ANYONE who has the fungus without hesitation. It puts a new level of fear and anxiety for Ellie’s survival.
It’s important to know that Druckmann and Mazin decided to change how the infection works. It’s NOT spores anymore, but more of a tendril system. It’s different, but looks really icky in the old neighbor woman’s mouth; Druckmann liked the idea of the infection being connected like a system, and I get the change for the show.
Yeah spores work as gameplay mechanics but they don’t make much physical sense in a show
Spores are also microscopic in real life, so if they wanted to keep it realistic they had no choice but to change it. Druckmann also said that if they kept the spores, everyone would've been screwed relatively quickly.
Also spores won’t work as Tv show
Pro tip: listen to the dog when they are desperately running away from something or dragging their feet when you try to take them back towards that thing. Never played the game, but this episode got me hooked on the story and the characters.
Yes!!!! I was screaming at the TV to LISTEN TO THE DAMN DOG
I was honestly skeptical about this adaptation but holy cow did they knock it out of the park on the this premiere on every aspect! The actress who played Sarah was soooo good!
Yeah, I thought she was so good. She would’ve made a great Ellie.
Thandie Newton's daughter, so it runs deep.
Watching the panic at the start of the outbreak unfold and seeing it from the back seat of the truck from Sarah’s perspective was intense and bone chilling!
Right?! It reminded me soo much of the game, the way the scene was shot was really well done. In the beginning waiting for everything to happen was pretty nerve-racking and it had me on edge but in the best kind of way, just like the game. You could feel how intense the situations were.
The polar opposites between Nico Parker and Bella Ramsey's characters is so nicely juxtaposed in this series premiere where one fears killing while the other embraces it. The scene with Bella's character Ellie seeing how Joel just lunges towards the soldier and beats him to death, you can see in her eyes that's what she wants realizing she has to stick with him.
I feel like it's a bit of a different take on her character from the game. I don't really remember her ever embracing killing at that point in the story. In fact in the game she says something like "I thought we were just going to hold them up" during this scene after the soldiers are killed. It'll be interesting to see how her character develops in this version.
To be fair that's only because Ellie was born during the apocalypse
I don't really think it's fair to compare them because Sarah was just thrown into insanity and died before she could adapt while ellie grew up in that world and was raised dealing with death constantly
@@netflixandchinchilla I think it contrasts how the world changed. With Sarah, it was horrifying and she was crying after seeing Joel kill an infected. Ellie, on the other hand, growing up in an apocalypse, looks curious when she sees Joel beating a soldier like that. It's an interesting way to show the shift in mindsets of the youth.
I don’t think they are that different. Both are quippy and smart.
In case you missed it in the intro - since *John* & our friend *Tara Erickson* haven’t played the game they’re gonna be covering the series together starting a little later this week. Hopefully, their first vid will be up by Tuesday.
that's ok :D
My husband kept interrupting the show going “this is blah blah” or “they’re talking about blah blah” and I was like WILL YOU JUST LET ME WATCH THE SHOW PLEASE I DON’T CARE WHAT YOU KNOW!!!! 😂
Hopefully you guys will see this comment but they completely changed the infection in the series there are no spores read it in an article I can't remember but apparently the infection is like a hive mind the directors didn't want the cast to have masks on the majority of the show
Wish I could erase and experience something for the first time again so it'll be great to see it from a perspective of someone who hasn't played the games. Great idea!
Cool
I like the way how Sarah pointed out Joel's t-shirt is worn inside-out. Show's a bit of her personality. Not sure if anyone noticed but it's kinda how Ellie mentioned to Joel that his watch is broken. Little by little along through out the series, they are starting to show how Joel gets closer to Ellie.
I think it’s fitting that Ellie is the one to tell Joel the watch is broken as for me, the watch is a representation of how broken Joel is after Sarah’s death. Joel seeing Ellie reminds him of Sarah both literally and figuratively when she mentions the watch
First episode was so good man. Holy shit. Bella is nailing Ellie’s demeanor and attitude. Also loved how they made Joel and Tess’ reason for going after Robert more personal and more sense. Joel needed that battery to go get tommy. In the game, their reason for going after Robert was just getting guns J&T bought.
Im so happy Gabriel Luna is playing Tommy. He embodies him and has the exact same sound and ascent as Tommy
Luna's "Tommy" voice was amazing
He might of been my favorite part, his voice was damn perfect.
I kept saying that while watching that he sounded *exactly* like Tommy
uhm... isn't Gabriel Luna Tommy's voice actor in the games? im pretty sure that he is
@@daedalus3726 he isnt. however Gabriel Luna loved the game when he played it.
It’s insane how faithful they are to the game while still making it feel fresh. They did say they would adapt almost every significant moment from the game but I didn’t believe it until now.
It was such a good episode and faithful adaptation. I cannot wait for the rest of the series
They specially said that they changed stuff on purpose.. You’re in for a ride if you think it’s gonna be faithful
@@rinshaolin94 reviews came days ago, they all said it’s very similar to the games especially the second half of the season. Also the things they changed they did it good
@@francesco8320 Alright i’m hopeful :( the games are my favorite of all time
@@rinshaolin94 well they gotta have some changes to have the og last of us fans interested in the story and be surprised as well.
@@Saiyan1229 i get it i just hope they aren’t trying to preach to the viewers and are strictly focusing on entertainment
Anyone else have this surreal feeling watching the episode? Of like, "wow, they ACTUALLY made it into a show and I'm actually watching it." I sure did. Through the whole episode it didn't feel real 😅
Yes! It was like watching the show and replaying the game in my memory. Every recognizable moment was a little giddy shot of dopamine. I was in awe throughout the whole episode.
Nope you're not the only one. I felt the same way watching the episode. Every time an original line from the game was said I got a lot of serotonin. For example, the part where Joel asked Sara how she was able fix his watch and she was like "Drugs, I sell hardcore drugs." made me smile soo hard. Everything felt soo surreal hearing those lines again and seeing all of those scenes.
During the scenes with all the people running and screaming everywhere, I couldn't help but just smile; When the game first came out, one of my first thoughts were "I wonder how this would look in real life" and now we have the answer.
Not gonna lie there were a few times especially in this episode where I felt like I was playing the game again and instinctively went to hit square
I love how they give Joel his own motivation to head west to find Tommy. Also, the music during Joel's drinking and pill popping is the match making theme in the factions mode. And the music when Joel first digs under his apartment is music in last scene of the game. Nice touches.
When Joel screams "Tommy! Help Me!" I just broke. 😔
The whole Sarah death scene is a great example how they managed to get this done. It is basically the same as in the game, yet it feels a little different, at least to me. The game just made me really sad, of course I was also shocked, which couldn't happen here, but this sadness was different. To me it felt much closer and uncomfortable, the way she squeals (I don't have a better word) when Joel tries to lift her, went right into my bones. We meet Joel as a capable man, who knows what to do, but when he held is dying daughter and said "Tommy, help me" or whatever, that hurt.
It's just the first episode but I really like how the differences to the game are just enough to make it feel standalone and unique. We got the same or similar feelings just in slightly different ways. Tommy getting arrested is such a minor change, yet it tells so much! A dude in a bar attacks a waitress and Tommy steps in, is a great progession of the outbreak, it shows that Tommy is someone whose instinct is to help, not to look away (we got that later in the car, when they drive by the family who needs help) and it deepens the relationship between the brothers, they care for each other, even if it is inconvenient.
And they don't waste time on "look what great easter egg we got here!" moments, which is great. Sarah wears the same shirt as in the game, which is great, yet it doesn't distract you from what's actually going on.
Really great first episode, I'm so excited for more, this show will fuck me really good.
Damn. Very well said!
As someone who hasn't played the video game, I was immediately drawn into the characters and the entire atmosphere. I also enjoyed your reactions because you both are big fans of the games.
How hard did Sarah's death hit? (Have played the game 5 times so knew it was coming)
i knew it was coming yet i still cried. this show really gonna mess with me even tho i know what happens 😭
Just wait till we get to Pittsburgh that’s going to be even harder
Oh God I spent the first half hour in pure DREAD
most definitely hit harder this time too :/ can’t fckn wait for the rest of the show
@@monsterking1973 I think the stuff that happened in Pittsburg with a certain two characters is happening in Kansas City.
man up
The very opening for this series was completely different from the original game yet it was so freaking perfect! It described how dangerous Cordyceps was EVEN BETTER a than the game! And even the entire Outbreak Day flashback was somehow even done better. I have played the game 7 times already and thought I could prepare myself for Sarah’s death, but nope, I was almost as broken as Joel.
Nico Parker, Thandie Newton's daughter is a rising star and she is going to do incredible things for sure.
Now that’s how you adapt a game into another medium, stay faithful to the source material while adding new bits here and there to flesh things out, excellent premiere.
I agree but as big fan and someone who considers the story pretty much perfect; the new stuff seems super unnecessary 😅
Kinda feels like movie novelization
Still really good show so far. Much better than Halo
@@TheGrimStride It was very necessary, mandatory even, the games story is perfect but tv is a different medium, you have to change some things up to flesh the characters out & their motivations, if they stuck to the game 100% it would get very tedious & uninteresting, they really didn’t change much they just added more story to what we already got, for me this was a perfect premiere
@@TheGrimStride it's not a matter of "necessary". It's a matter of making it so the show isnt a carbon copy of the game, and explore things the game just couldn't.
@@salomaogomes7311 💯
I think there is a good balance so far in this episode at least. I am cautious with at least 2 episodes being fully dedicated to side stories/character arcs (First being Bill And Frank's Tragic Love Story and the second Ellie & Riley) taking up time between the 9 episode order (as one of the criticisms from the reviews I did read that covered the whole season expressed how rushed and less impactful the second half is).
I have never been able to describe one of these as a "perfect video game adaptation". But holy shit, it finally happened. I cannot wait for the rest of the series.
Arcane says hello?
@@krampusthestoryteller1416 at that time I hadn’t heard of it. But I do plan on starting it in a few days, I’ve heard nothing but stellar things
@@djman5667 Arguably the best videogame adaptation ever made, and for League of Legends of all things.
My heart was pounding while watching this episode
i absolutely adored this episode. joel is one of my favourite characters ever and i ADORE how they wrote him, and how pedro acted him, especially his relationship w tess. i think a few ppl owe bella an apology over how they reacted to her casting - she's god damn perfect. i liveblogged this whole episode to my partners (who have never even played the games), i just had so many opinions to share!
There was one scene when Bella yelled WTF! She sounded just like Ellie from the video game.
But she'll never be her
Forget it being a good adaptation. This singular episode was some of the best tv I’ve personally seen in years. They made Sarah such a deeper character in half of a episode. To the point that I’m knowing she’s gonna die but hoping she doesn’t. Then am crushed when she is laying there dying. Actually watching her go fix the watch and the world slowly descending into chaos. See much more of Joel as a flawed over working yet great father then the flip when he just throws a infected child into the fire pit. The look on Tommy’s face when he knows Sarah is dead. Elle being the shit talking kid but with the slight change of her already being such a survivalist ruthless little girl that you really don’t get until half way through the game after the whole cannibal scavenger thing. Because of course. She’s an orphan born and raised in the apocalypse. Of course she is more ruthless and willing to just stab Joel off the bat or stab the guard. Overall great first episode
The ONLY thing I wish they kept was the soldier’s dialogue of “sir, there’s a little girl.”
The part where he says "Tommy Help!" was where it hit.
The anguish of a father feeling so helpless 😢
I’m actually really impressed of how much they changed and yet they made it work so well, it’s good that they kept some of the more iconic senses
Pedro pascal is one of the most badass actors these days
AMAZING first episode! I couldn’t believe how well they adapted it for a live action format. So expertly done
This was an amazing premiere, can’t wait to see the rest of the show
This pilot was amazing, what a good introduction and It felt nostalgic in a way like there was a voiceover of the original characters at times. I loved the little changes as an original fan, made things more interesting for me. I can’t wait for this series 👏🏽
Sonia I completely agree. I loved how they stayed true to the game, and the part that got me laughing was Sarah telling Joel "I sell hard-drugs" glad they inserted that part from the game.
Amazing premiere episode. Really interesting way to have the show open with life before the pandemic therefore making it all the more heartbreaking when the outbreak happens and the world goes to shit. Also Pedro as Joel crying over Sarah’s dead body absolutely broke me. It broke me in the game but in live action it broke me more. Damn what an episode and great reaction guys. As a fan of the first game I loved this and can’t wait for the rest of the episodes. We truly weren’t ready for this show.
It was perfection. Really looking forward to the rest of the season!
I played this game a decade ago and somehow teared up. Just shows how perfect the storytelling/writing/acting is.
The game’s intro had the truck crashing into the protagonists. But in the show that same truck barely misses them and they get hit by debris from the plane (i think). Just a nice little twist for the gamers.
Also, in the game, Robert is taken out by Tess and Joel, but in the show he's already been taken out in a fight between Marlene and her people (fireflies) and it was over a Battery and not "weapons" - alot of nice little twists to keep it fresh.
@@SolidBoss7 Wasn't too crazy about that change. Felt a bit rushed to get the adventure going. Felt they could have found a better, more exciting way to find a balanced between those two scenarios to make their meeting feel a bit more energetic and memorable. Otherwise, very good and solid premiere overall.
@@SolidBoss7 exactly. You can tell the showrunner/writers really care about the game
@@theprowler18 i actually felt the game rushed to get the adventure going. I like how the show let the audience fully take in where Joel has been living the past 2 decades. I played the game a few days ago and that part felt too rushed for me personally
@@theprowler18 i actually agree with you in a way. It wouldve been great to see the meet up/fight happen on screen but i feel like that wouldve slowed the story down a bit.
TLOU is one of my favorite games of all time and this episode was amazing. There were plenty of moment I got the chills and a sense of nostalgia for seeing it adapted in live action.
After just the first 20 minutes, this became my favorite show of all time.
Same it was really emotional for me 😊
thats fast lol
@@davofidie6897 i know, i was pleasantly surprised 😅
@@jalenwilliams7067 same. I played this game a decade ago but somehow it made me tear up
Stop being dramatic 🤣
The crazy scene in the beginning - middle was one of the most immersive scenes i have ever seen on TV. i was literally ducking and weaving when the planes where flying so low right above them. Pretty good first episode; excited to see more
Pedro’s best roles. “Protect the child!”
Just watched the pilot with a bunch of friends online. Everyone loved it. Even the people who weren’t familiar with the game.
I did not play the game because I'm too sensitive to make choices - but I did watch several people play it on youtube, so I know the story and know what was coming - this is actually so much more personal. The game did such a good job (so good I couldn't play) with building attachments, so this was done soooo well. They are setting a high bar for future adaptations.
The accuracy with this episode is incredible. I honestly can’t wait for the next episode 🔥
Pedro’s acting is insane and I didn’t really think it’s too much at first from the front put his side profile holy shit does he look like Joel from the side and the acting just sells it holy shit
Already feel like they did the game justice. Even with the creative liberty, it still has the same feel as the game. Can't wait for the rest.
I am so overly pleased with this adaptation. Expanding on characters, introducing new characters. I think Pedro Pascal is a better Joel. Never thought id say that..
I don't know if I'd go that far yet. It's quite a different performance from Troy. More reserved. Less cowboy feeling. But pedro is really doing a perfect job.
I like this version of Joel alot so far but troy set the bar pretty damn high
@@Simonsays90 Troy himself said he was so inspired by Pedro’s performance that he wished he could go back in time and play Joel differently
@@Ay3shizzle but that doesn’t mean Pedro did it better. An artist can hate his art while audiences adore it.
@@TheGrimStride whatever the hell you say lol
Everything that I wanted, happened during the pilot. The recreations got me so excited, but the entire experience feels so NEW. The first episode was nailed beautifully. The entire cast feels so passionate and really bringing their A-Game to the table. I cannot WAIT to watch more episodes!
I’m glad you guys enjoyed the episode. This was an amazing episode to work on and proudly filmed in my home province of Alberta, Canada!
Oh my god! I just finished the show a few minutes ago and holy shit it’s so damn fucking good so far! I can’t wait for the rest of season! Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann have delivered and broke the video game adaptation curse! I first played the game in 2015 (the Remastered version for PS4) and I’ve been waiting for an adaptation of it since they first announced a film for it (which I knew would never work)! My heart is filled with absolute joy that this show succeeded! Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey are perfection as Joel and Ellie! I loved hearing Gustavo Santaolalla’s themes from the game as well as some newer music (which I hope is new) for the show!
Edit: Had to fix some things and typos.
Dude, I’m so much more excited for the rest after watching the first episode. Great casting, great acting, great adaptation for the first episode! Hope it continues to exceed expectations!
Having played the game, I had the biggest grin on my face the entire time while also having chills. This series is heading in the right direction so far
HBO never misses! This lived up to the game! This will be great!
The old lady and dog scene sent shivers down my spine. Hella creepy stuff.
I'm liking how they changed the vector of infection. That little alteration really forms a more horrific undertone.
cant describe how happy i was with this first episode. hbo might be our last hope at good television
I promise u it's not but the show is very, extremely good so far!!
This was definitely a very good game -> tv show adaptation. I really enjoyed it, especially the first 20 minutes
Pedro plays this role so perfectly
I can't even explain how much I love this
Yessss!! I just finished the first episode myself and see this in my queue. I was SUPER impressed! I loved all the expanded things they added in, everyone gave great performances, and I'm hyped to see how they adapt the rest!
This was a great first episode! I enjoyed every minute of it even though I haven’t played the games. Can’t wait to see next weeks episode and your next reaction! I really enjoy watching this show with you guys. Thanks for making your reactions for others!👍😁🎬
It was just amazing, an as a player, as far as the ep 1, I am pleased 😀. Even the things they added for the sake of creating a story line, were just perfect. The accuracy just wow. As soon as the intro started I felt a rush of adrenaline, just the sound of the song had me hype. I freaking love the games so much. I can't wait to ep 2...
As someone who's never played the game and knew very little about it, I LOVED this episode. I'm so invested. The atmosphere is great, the acting is great. I'm really looking forward to the next episode! Love your reaction!
Fantastic 1 episode loved seeing the new stuff they added and man I thought I was prepare for that emotional again but it still hits me in gut 😢
I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR REACTION THE MOST !!!!
Song at the end is an 80's song so it means danger.
I also called him Diego Luna 🤣
Hit the ground running with this premiere 👏🏽
I am almost done watching the first episode of "The Last of Us" and going with a blank slate with this show. So far I am enjoying the premise. The show starting of with John Hannah and Christopher Heyerdahl was pretty good.
I watched this episode before watching your guys reaction and I cried both times watching the beginning scene, you’ve gotta admit, now matter how it’s done no matter what the characters look like, it’s such an emotional scene and you’ve gotta shed a tear when watching it
My mom and I specifically went in 100% blind. We are hooked! Cannot imagine anyon e other than Pedro Pascal as Joel.
Just finished episode one. What a kickass opener. Gonna love all your reactions. I love seeing Greg so excited he can barely talk!! 🤣🤣💖💖✌️✌️🎬
YESSS just finished the episode and immediately needed this reaction!!
i keep rewatching your tlou reactions lol i love them
What a masterful episode. Absolutely amazing, from the performances, to the story changes, direction. So happy for this show.
I don't think i've ever been happier seeing a video game that i hold so dearly to my heart be adapted so well in one episode.
Also, Bella Ramsey is absolutely killing it as Ellie so far.
I'm not even cautiously optimistic, i'm full on ecstatic about this series moving forward.
Congrats on being the first Chanel to post an ep1 reaction!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Turning on your post notifs! You're one of the few channels where you both have played the game and I just feel like I can relate to you 2 more than any other reactor!! So excited to watch this with y'all :)
Great first episode! Seeing the clip of what’s to come I cannot wait!!
FUCK YEAH!!!
THIS WAS A GREA EPISODE!
It's slow at first, but it shows you the characters and how the virus changed their lives forever.
I love how they subvert those little moments from the game, ur like oh I know that scene and they just go the other way a bit it’s pretty cool
Loved this and can't wait see the rest. This is nailing the tone and feel. Paying respect while doing their own thing. Pedro and Belle are great and excited to see their back and forth for the rest. Hope to get flashbacks of how Joel Met Tess.
I absolutely love how that sneaking outside the walls scene felt SO MUCH like a video game. From the weird car walls kinda pathing them through that maze, to the searching spotlights you have to hide to avoid. Brilliant transposition from game to show.
Episode was awesome. I love the way they did the beginning section and it was similar to the game. Cant wait for the rest of it!
I love how much they added to the story while staying faithful to the source material. Casting was on point too. Great first episode 👏🏻
also i LOVE the foreshadowing when the soldier says 'easy to make a mistake in the dark'
The mercy kill of the infected child and the contrast of Joel burning him was Erie and incredible , also showing how a leg infection takes longer to infect
Crazy I just finished watching it too 😭 it’s amazing so far
Such a good episode!! Can’t wait for the rest!
I love the choice of having the first infected person you see being the elderly immobile neighbour. It really showed you the ability of the Cordyceps to takeover and reanimate the host body.
“You tell me to look for the light, I’ll break your jaw.”
Pedro Pascal has Joel down to a T 😂.
HBO got another banger on their hands. So true to the game but also different 💯
Ayyy. Still watching the episode now myself, but will get right on this once I’m done. Really enjoying it so far
Wow just one episode and I'm in...it's fantastic!! Watching you guys completely geek out during the reaction is great and thank you for not spoiling what's to come coz I haven't played the game. loved the reaction x
