Don't get me wrong: I love HBO's The Last of Us series. But what's the old saying? You're more critical with the ones you love? So, while my The Last of Us review had a five-star rating (out of five), that was only written having seen the first four (out of nine) episodes. And I sit here today having finished it all, and pondering how and if it could have been better.
One of the best HBO Max shows in ages, The Last of Us saw HBO flexing a muscle I never expected: the video game adaptation. And, yet, weeks later, I sit here with a Pedro Pascal character quote running through my head.
