It's been a zombie show for at least seven seasons and probably more. It has nothing new to say but they're gonna keep dragging it out.

Shoresy was great tho

i guess technically it's a movie, but it feels more like a show for some reason so i'll put it here - go watch This Place Rules on HBO immediately. Man what a wild ride.

My wife inexplicably loves that show.

I mean, I love it to, but...

Funny, I have to remind my Mother in law which channel it’s on because she loves it but sticks to classic network TV most of the time.

#1 guilty pleasure.

I love Mythic Quest. Even with Rob McElhenny and Megan Ganz helming, the show is still so much better than the sum of its parts

The Last of Us is getting really strong reviews. Biggest gripe seems to be that the pilot is a little weak.

The Last of Us was well done. It was 95% the same as the game, and I'm not sure if/how they're going to stray from the original story.

Definitely well done. Crazy how true to the game most of it was. When they were escaping Boston and the search lights were circling I felt anxiety because I hated that part of the game lol

It was the truck escape (in the prologue) that got me. That's a really visceral part of the game early on

Yeah the Austin stuff in general was all extremely well done but this was the highlight. My memory is not the best but I think the truck scene was basically beat for beat with the scene in the game. That's not always going to be the right call but here it totally was.

I played about half the game way back when, and a hard boss fight pretty much derailed me about half way through. Now I want to watch the show, and retry the game along with it. Should I play a bit then watch, or watch an episode then play?

I only ever barely started the game and got sidetracked. But now I kinda wanna play it and love it just to argue with IMB.
