I am not the biggest fan of the original game so I was a bit more open minded when this series came out.

I don't understand all these 10 and 9 ratings. It's a okay show at best. Lots of filler and terrible pacing. Ellie is incredibly annoying and Joel is bland af.

I kind of expected that the infected weren't really going to be a big part of this show because this show goes the not so subtle road of "ThE HUmAnS ARe ThE REal MoNStErS". But the amount of time wasted on unnecessary side plots that ultimately add nothing to the overall story was baffling.

I can only explain all these hyper positive reviews with a standard that got lowered so much because of all these mediocre shows we got over the last years.

But seriously this is just "The walking dead" with a higher budget and more virtue signaling. To all those that actually want to continue this show: Have fun with season 2 and everyone's favorite golf pro.
