The series is set in 2023, twenty years into a pandemic caused by a mass fungal infection, which causes its hosts to transform into zombie-like creatures and collapses society.

What you said about the things Joel takes and carries, is the most profound analysis I’ve heard of this show.

[@Simonpt2000]

Perfect casting. Bella is great as Ellie

The game is so much better.
I expected so much more from this show.

[@KDrago22]

Would interest me a lot what you expected, because I also think that we game was better (in my opinion not much but yeah better), but I couldn't really say what they could have done so much better. If you find the time to respond. Thanks in advance, even if not.
