Bill and Frank won the apocalypse. They lived long and happy lives and went out on their terms.

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

[@TheDaringPastry1313]

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.

[@oatbeverage]

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!!

[@ryanmasciello6494]

[@testfire3000]

@@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.

[@Ghostfriend7100]

[@DrLipkin]

@@Ghostfriend7100 Yes, it can. Salted or smoked.

[@fortunatus1]

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.

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!

[@J.C.8]

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.

[@liammbiscwit]

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

[@marturomano]

@@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

[@liammbiscwit]

@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

[@marturomano]

@@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

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.

[@exposureeee]

@@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.

[@groningen73]

Bill and Frank really were the perfect mix of a lone conspiracy prepper and a authentic harmonious lover of life.

[@wwaxwork]

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.

[@jaeden28]

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

[@Murderpotato]

after playing the games, learning about the ant part in the show deeply disturbs me...

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."

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!

[@axlm.808]

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

[@Neo.Spg.]

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.

[@BudhagRizzo]

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.

[@RoxxSerm]

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.

[@chicageauxt1ger110]

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.

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.

That it is correct, considering the actor who plays joel also plays The Mandalorian its kind of ironic they said that.

[@VebastionSettel]

So excited to see you guys watching this show! This show was filmed in and around my home city, and honestly this could not have worked out at any other time. The city was on lock down for covid for at least part of filming so the city agreed to shut down large sections for them to use, and with the amazing set dec you can see why that made it seem so real. I'm sure you know by now it's very true to the game, the showrunner Craig Mazin (created Chernobyl and wrote Hangover Part 2) is a self-professed super fan of The Last of Us game. HBO asked him what he wanted to do next after the massive success of Chernobyl and he chose Last of Us. He also made the game creator/director (Neil Druckmann) his co-showrunner, so you know that was serious about making it authentic. Neil was very gracious in being willing to make changes if he agreed that they made sense. In fact he got mad (jokingly) at Craig for the version of Bill and Frank we got here because "Why didn't I think of that?" I also loved that you picked up on the importance of the letter at the end of Ep 3. Apart from the unbelievable beauty of the episode, that letter was the entire point and explains Joel's motivation. Can't wait to see how much you enjoyed the rest!

I turned my eyes away from the screen for 2 seconds right before Ellie pushed the trolly... and then I heard them get scared and it made me jump LOL

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.

I always liked you too when your videos popped up. Time to give a follow.

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

To say you have nothing to live for is wild seeing how you/us/we made it through an pandemic.

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)

33:49 in the museum they were several floors up, so no fungus.
