TFA starts with a picture of Last of Us. Season 1 was amazing for the most part. Even my spouse who has zero interest in video games loved it.
And then season 2 started. They forgot their core audience (gamers, horror, fans of post-apocalyptic themes) and tried to make it a soap opera that appeals to everyone. At one point the main character spent 5 minutes sitting on a couch talking with a therapist. It was more slick, less gritty ... the cast was wearing brand-new jackets and backpacks and boots, 20 years after the mushroom zombie apocalypse. What a disappointment.
Yet that's pretty typical for Hollywood suits. They want to expand the audience or chase some trend, push the creatives out of the way, and end up ruining it.

- chistev 1mo agoSeason 1 was one of my favorite TV shows ever. Season 2 was terrible, I'm not sure I even finished it.
