First two episodes started out amazing and I was hooked. I don't like zombie shows but this caught me.

Then it went downhill. Not in production quality or acting. But how they decided to tell the story. Now on episode 7 - the side characters has far more character chemistry and development than the main two characters. I don't care about the same gender relationships, that's hinted in the game. What I do care about is that they are trying to take the magic of breaking bad - being able to have a slow pacing and a slow build up to the action - but the last of us fails miserably. It's just slow. It's boring. The pacing is way off. I don't feel the main characters. Bella Ramseys character has three modes. 1. Swear mode. 2. Stuck up mode. 3. Reaction mode. She has zero personality and Joel... It's hinted that he's an absolutely maniac and a bad ass.... But the few, few things we see him do... Are not in any way extraordinary to give him that reputation.

Some characters are new and are horribly miscast. I'm talking about Rose from 2 and a half men. I don't even remember her characters name. What the....

The reunion with Tommy was heartbreakingly flat.

There is so much greatness from the game and they literally decided to make it worse. Not different - but worse.

Absolutely loved the first two episodes and haven't been so hyped since breaking bad or the dark knight.

So it starts amazing - then it's a slow, slow, slow process of side characters that show up and seem important. Then they die asap from 2 min of action.

It's just a poor adaption and after re-watching the game play it feels like empty virtue signaling and money problems driving this show..... How can you have so little things going on in a zombie human apoclapyse...
