When you’re done crying your eyes out, we thought it might be a good time to talk about the latest episode of The Last of Us. The penultimate sixth episode was just released on HBO, and it was incredible. We’ll have our full, traditional recap on Monday, but we had to give everyone a place […]
The Last of Us Creators and Cast Break Down Making That Scene
Just two episodes in, the second season of The Last of Us hit a key moment from the games that lays the path for the rest of the season.

The Last of Us Will Never Be the Same After Its Most Shocking Episode
I can’t believe they did it. Even before season one of The Last of Us was released, anyone who had played both Last of Us video games looked at a singular event in the second game as a major TV question mark. Could that happen on TV? How would people react? Surely, it would be […]
Swing By Our Last of Us Spoiler Zone, Discuss That Big Moment
Ever since The Last of Us was renewed for a second season, there was one question among fans: when do they do it? And by “it,” we mean… Killing Joel. His death is the inciting incident of The Last of Us Part II, but there were plenty of reasons for fans of the games to think this event […]

Time’s Run Out in The Newest The Last of Us Trailer
The second season for HBO’s The Last of Us draws ever closer, and a new trailer played at this weekend’s SXSW. Like its game counterpart The Last of Us Part II, the next season is set years after the first. Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey) are in a community full of survivors over […]
