HBO has dropped five straight episodes of groundbreaking television with their live-action adaptation of the hit video game series The Last of Us, and if the latest episode is any indicator, we’re in for a treat by the time the season wraps up. The series has pulled in some record-breaking numbers for the network and HBO Max, only being beat out by Game of Thrones’ House of the Dragon spinoff, and it has already been renewed for a second season. Last nights episode is arguably the best episode of the series that has been released so far, and the attention to detail that co-creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann put into the episode is incredible. During the latest episode of HBO’s The Last of Us Podcast, Mazin, Druckmann and Troy Baker discussed the fact that Ellie is unable to heal everyone with her blood and that Sam was “still in there” after he was infected.
