#170 - The Last of Us (Season 1 wrap-up)

Published: March 19, 2023, 10:52 p.m.

This week on DtW, the Down of Us are finishing season one of the huge HBO game adaptation, The Last of Us! Dan, Raul, and gaming guru Jonnie are together again at the end of a beautiful and gut-wrenching journey, following Joel and Ellie as they make their way across a zombie America: fungus edition. The guys kick around the difficulty of adapting an interactive medium, like gaming, into a passive one you only watch before diving into the final episode themes and ideas and prognosticate where the series might go from the emotional finale. Does this ep draw comparisons between many different types of storytelling? Yes! Does it compare Ellie to Grogu? Nope!
