Well, he did the more dramatically exciting thing, not the sensible thing, and that's fine. It's a TV show. I think the decision is wrong from a moral perspective, not from a storytelling perspective (though several aspects of it felt muddled)

Joel using 10 bullets to quickly kill 10 people is no longer dramatically exciting.

I already covered that when you called it hollow and didn't elaborate.

In my view Joel is not Ellie's adoptive parent either, though he manipulates her pretty monstruously into that position
I feel like she chose him for that position when he was set to have Tommy take her the rest of the way and she reacted by basically saying how everyone leaves her.

I had zero interest in season two. Then I clicked the goddamn trailer video and there's goddamn Catherine O'Hara!
Guess I have to watch this now. Fuck.
Though, if S2 is anything like S1, she'll just be in one episode. That's doable.

Least hyped return in quite a while? I’m still on the fence about whether I’ll watch this season.

I'm fascinated to see how they adapt the game for TV. It could go wrong in so many ways.

I’m excited. I’m also tired of so many accounts on social media shitting on Bella Ramsey for her looks and looking forward for her to prove to them she can do badass just fine

Excited for this season but also it’s stressful because we’re falling perilously behind on our tv shows
