    Great, but short(er) episode last night.  I didn't post on episode 3, but I have to say, that was one of the best episodes on TV in years, IMO.  So good!

    In case you missed it, this week's episode (#5) will be shown on Friday due to the Superbowl.
    It's crazy to think that the season is already almost halfway over.  Knowing how much more there is in game one, I wonder if most will be longer (hour+) episodes.

    Just to clarify, it will still air in its normal Sunday night slot but it will be available to stream on HBO Max on Friday due to the SB

    Really liked the ending of ep 4, great show
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    Two episodes in, may give up.  Walking dead with cauliflower mushroom zombies.  Should I expect something that hasn't been previously over used by the other on a quest walking for the cure zombie shows?

    I checked out after episode 3. Did nothing for me but i seem to be in the overwhelming minority

    It is very similar to TWD and I Am Legend for sure. But I checked out of TWD after season 4 or so.

    Been watching this. Never heard of the game, but really liking it so far. It does remind me of early TWD, but a little better. Even the "good" seasons of TWD had some slow spots, like the first half of season 2.
    I didn't care for the episode with Bill. An entire episode for someone who dies at the end of it? I didn't see the point in having that episode. Maybe it makes more sense in the game or something.

    I did think it was kind of odd that they camped out right in the middle of that room rather than trying to conceal themselves. That just seemed obvious to me.

    And I would have put the glass OUTSIDE the door....why put it inside right next to your bed?

    Yeah I didn't really get the Bill episode, was good and all, but I don't remember it at all from the game.

    From what I do remember from the game is the ending was awesome, so if you're gonna check out, I might come back and watch the last episode.
    In the game there are much cooler "zombies" than what they've showed so far.

    Yeah, by the time you hear it it’s too late.
    but if he didn’t hear it inside, won’t hear it outside either. He just needs better booby traps.

    I know everyone is praising episode 3 but holy shit this week's episode was incredible.  One of the best TV episodes I've seen in awhile.

    Definitely a good one. Final set piece in the neighborhood was fantastic, but that ending was crushing.

    Actually remember that ending and sniper scene from the game, looked spot on to the the level. Gutted

    Yeah, episode 5 was fantastic!  I loved the changes they made and what they kept.  Knowing what I know from the game, I have a hard time believing there are only 4 episodes left in this "season/game/show/etc.".  Lots to cover still!  Hope the final 4 are extended (hour+) episodes.

    Liked this last episode. I think I realized why it is so much better than TWD. What TWD would stretch into a full season, Last of US gets done in an episode. This was like season 3 of TWD wrapped up into 1 episode. That lady was the Governor. They just dont stretch everything out forever. Keeps it moving well.
