@@jxchamb yeah, I wonder why they don't mention if they played it or not
1:20 The show literally made me wanna play the game and I was keeping up but I beat the show to the part with sam becoming infected and just recently beat game one on Sunday and started part 2
Tommy coming in after that fight and saying "I know you are happy for me, it's complicated for you, I'm sorry" might be the highest level of emotional intelligence between dudes I've seen on TV. Love it.
Not only that, but after seeing how much Joel was broken he accepted the task to take Ellie even thought he's going to be a father. What a incredible little brother
love the positive masculinity shown between them
fr fr
@@evilolivias Facts, it really gets me to buy into their brotherhood and that they care for each other. It also makes them seem smarter to me, because I think it's dumb to repress things like that
More than that, I think that moment was when they hugged and cried. Its just pure emotion. Two tough it out guys just pure happy to see each other!
I love how once Joel committed to take her, the flip was switched and he was all in. You could catch glimpses of how much he cared before that and he admits as much, but his behavior with her once they leave Jackson feels like his behavior with Sarah. He's fully accepted that she's like a daughter to him now.
We saw a glimpse of that when he was at Henry & Sam’s graves, as he processed what had just happened. He came to terms with the hard truth that he would not survive losing a child again, even though he wasn’t ready to admit at the time that he cares deeply for Ellie.
When he gives her the choice of whether to go with him or Tommy, it’s a complete cop-out. He knows Tommy is more capable than he is, but can’t let her go. So he gives her the out knowing she will take it. Because just as Ellie says she needs Joel, he needs her just as much.
This is the ep he goes *all in*, for better or worse.
And then he tried to download a teenaged life’s worth of his folksy Texan dad wisdom into her brain as quickly as possible. 🥰 My heart! 🥲
This may seem like such a minuscule detail to some but as a woman, it genuinely means a lot that you 3 constantly shed light on equality and don’t shy away from “taboo” feminine issues. The fact that you kept in the menstrual cup scene in this reaction and discussed its efficacy was just such a small but cool moment; especially since so many men act childish around these issues. Thank you for being mature and understanding.
I just LOVE how Pedro Pascal screams "Tommy!". It's like a perfect combination of emotional "holy shit" in that scream.
Hector saying he wants to read fanfiction where everything is happy and good is the single most relatable comment I've ever heard in a reaction video. Hector: you are SEEN LMAOOOO
I love Hector trying to will into existence a happy ending for these characters 😭
"How bout y'all just stay here [in Jackson] for like a year"
"I want this to be the series finale" - Hector, moments before seeing what happens at the end of this episode hah
"He was outta line, but he's right!"
he is NOT ready for the possible season 1 finale. we're all crying when that time comes.
@@KristenYolanda i think he will be devastated when Season 2 begins.. 🏌♀
Joel: “So communists?”
Tommy: “Not exactly.”
Maria: “Yeah exactly. This is a commune. We’re communists.”
Tommy: “ 🤯 “
You have to understand Joel's perspective here. He took Ellie and this job then went through hell and lost Tess all because he thought Tommy was in trouble because he stopped responding back. Joel was on a "suicide mission" basically which caused him to lose everything, start dealing with his trauma all over again because Tommy chose Maria and the town. His anger towards Tommy is totally understandable.
This and also the whole potential to inoculate the world thing with Ellie’s blood.
I'm surprised Joel wasn't more angry at Tommy. Tommy and Joel clearly had a system on the radios. You're telling me he couldn't radio his brother ONCE in months just because his new wife wouldn't approve?
Exactly, it wasn't long from joining the group to cutting Joel off, like near instantaneous. Not even a "don't come looking, I'm ok". I'd be seething.
@@johnjungkook2721 it wasn't just his wife. The entire colony banned radio communications. It was for their collective safety which is understandable
@@enadegheeghaghe6369 And that's fine, I get why the Jackson community wants to keep a low profile. But Tommy could have gone back to Cody and left a farewell message like "I'm OK, I left the group I was with (Fireflies) and I am moving out to an area where I won't have radio contact after this. Love you and take care". Then Joel wouldn't worry.
One thing i just realized...Pedro Pascal is so good he can either show his face or not show it--but still act the hell out...Just amazing.
My heart went to Joel here.When he was talking to Tommy; he looks defeated and small. He opened his soul to his brother.
Pedro and Bella's chemistry is incredible
Yeah, their interviews together are super entertaining, love them both
Hector just casually throwing info about who's the actor and what he was nominated for
He's literally me
+sam.onthemoon
Same here
And he speaks to much - kinda spoils the review
@@shootforthestars3324 he's reacting. That's kinda the gig
@@ryang3101 however his "reactions" are FYIs and sometimes analysis of the story when he hasn't yet finished the whole episode. I would argue that those things are better discussed right after watching, imo.
@@ryezen6673Yeah it feels like they aren’t used to reacting to a true blue dramatic TV show. It’s one thing when reacting to big moments in a Marvel show and talking through what it could mean. But there are really dramatic scenes happening here that they are just making jokes over and missing great moments.
I think Joel telling Ellie she doesn’t know what loss is was not referring to losing people . He was talking about losing his humanity , morals etc losing the man he was before all this happened . She’ll never grasp this because she’s grown up in this world and the previous one is just an abstract concept for her .
That's a good point actually. People from before lost literally everything. Their world, and to survive, themselves.
no, he is just selfish. he thinks its just some kind of misery contest.
Marlon and Florence are another example of how this show is so good at getting you to care about characters in only a few seconds of screen time. Their dynamic was instantly palpable. Florence was such a delight to watch. She’s the best. Nobody is changing my mind.
Marlon: “You made him soup?”
Florence: “Yeah. It’s cold out.”
Joel: “Point to it on the map. And it better be the same spot your wife pointed to.”
Marlon: “Did you tell him the truth?”
Florence: “Yeah.”
Marlon: “……..Are you telling me the truth?”
Florence: “Yeah.”
😂 🤣
*Another solid episode. Pedro killing his role.*
I love Hector being so stressed that he just starts chugging Monster, which would probably only make it worse lol
The Ellie and Joel confrontation scene made me cry.
But it had to happen. Clearing the air in order for Joel and Ellie to become "father and daughter."
Yeah honestly one of the best tv scenes ive ever seen
There's a few scenes where the dialogue is taken 100% directly from the game. This scene was one of them. And it's amazing.
@@Frostbite08 It was not 100% though, the dialogue was actually better in the game. "Dont say another word" didnt have the same impact as an angry "You're threading on some mighty thin ice". But other than that, this show is killing it.
@@Askyl sometimes more is less, we can really feel the emotional weight in Joel’s face as soon as his daughter is brought up. That one line was enough for me. Like Adam says at the end, you can see the dialogue through the performance 👌🏾
The director said Pedro cried real tears every time. There were no artificial tears needed (in the scene with his brother).
These two have definitely come a long way from "you're cargo" to "Do you even give a crap about me?" "Of course I do"
As someone who is also a blind (not played the game) viewer, you guys have the best reactions
and as someone who is blind, i can't even tell
Curious if you are willing to share, because I've never had the opportunity to ask, but how do you take in the purely visual parts of a show like this? Is there a version that has audio describing the visuals of the scene?
This show is nailing Joel and Ellies relationship so well. Pedro and Bella are doing fantastic in the roles.
I want to see more of Graham Green and Elaine Miles characters again.
Elaine Miles' character was exactly the same as in Northern Exposure.
They were so damned good. I hope Tommy and them link up with and do some trading or something. But also kinda want them to just be safe out there forever.
OMG! I loved them!!
@@corvus1374 There’s a part of me that believes that is Marilyn from Cicely, AK.
Hilarious, the moment you said you wanted the end credits to role, the music playing was from the end credits of the game
Which bugged me a lot. I wish they kept The Path for the ending, now I wonder how they did it in the show
I'm surprised Joel wasn't more angry at Tommy. Tommy and Joel clearly had a system on the radios. You're telling me he couldn't radio his brother ONCE in months just because his new wife wouldn't approve? Y'all remember Joel panicking about the car battery and telling Tess that Tommy was "dead" if they didn't go out there. Joel's not a drama queen - if he was panicking about Tommy it means they had a system and Tommy went offline.
Craig Masin said "and Joel did the best that he could do, just walked away without punching Tommy in his face"
i have such a special place in my heart for the native couple at the beginning of the episode, they were precious
also LOL @ Hector wanting positive outcome fanfic
Joel has been trying to keep an emotional distance from Ellie. Unfortunately it's failed and they've grown gradually closer. That confrontation in Ellis "room" needed to happen. It basically tore all or most of the walls down that were still up.
Ellie did say to Sam that her biggest fear is ending up alone. We can see her fear here
You talked right over Joel's monologue. Sometimes you have to let art flow over you.
Ikr, I know it's a reaction video, but there are moments when you just have to be silent
Hector almost had a heart attack watching this episode. Also, yeah - I wanna read a happy fanfiction too.
I have to say-the menstrual cup really sealed my love for this show. Because those tampons were Way. Way. Way. Past expiration.
and they would only last a couple months lol
Yes! Such a practical and kind gift. My friend thought it was some kind of contraceptive 😂 I had to explain that that gift is like gold in this world.
I think that little cup is gonna help her save Joel as well. Idk how else she can slow the bleeding from his wound
@@jxchamb not everybody uses those things i mean look at it, looks terrifying but in an apocalypse that's the only option
@@system0fadowner251 lol, have you ever seen one? Like up close? Because that sounds to me like you haven’t. I seriously pray that it doesn’t. Because there’s no alcohol to clean that thing. Also, it would fill with a decent amount of blood and who knows if that would clot or not with the air holes. That wouldn’t be as effective as simply putting pressure and wrapping his wound. I would like to believe that maybe the show runners just wanted to be more practical and human about the female menstrual experience as it’s not spoken about enough in popular culture. Especially in video game culture.
If Pedro Pascal is not nominated for best actor at every awards show this year THEN NO ONE DESERVES TO BE NOMINATED!!!!
This was perhaps my most anticipated episode of the season and somehow it’s BETTER THAN THE GAME! Jackson looks beautiful and Gabriel Luna is as perfectly cast as Tommy as Pedro is for Joel. But what really got me were scenes of Joel clutching his heart from panic attacks and looking up to see a young woman who almost looks like Sarah, and when he was telling Tommy the truth that he believed that he was going to fail Ellie and get her killed.
When Joel was getting teary eyed I cried at that scene, but when we got to my absolute favorite dramatic scene in the game when Joel and Ellie are talking about loss I lost it. That was my most anticipated scene of the entire series and not only did it live up to the hype, it exceeded it. And just like the game it broke me.😭😭😭😭
It felt as if Sarah is "calling him" because it's Joel's time to go? The mrs. and I were discussing this, as it's something common in Mexican culture and folklore
@KC dude it looks freaking PERFECT! And I bet that the people there are super friendly.
You should react to some of the interviews with Pedro and Bella and see what a fantastic relationship they have (although I can’t imagine anyone not getting on with Pedro!). They filmed together for nearly a year, so it’s just as well they did have that natural chemistry!!! Pedro has always been an incredible actor and it’s so nice for him to be recognised as 1.
“The thickens, she plots”. 🤣 totally using this. Hahaha
Hector's insatiable uncontrollable urge to give fun facts regardless of what's happening in the show at that moment
I love him for that, he’s just like me, never shutting the hell up haha
I loved how they used a cover of the Depeche Mode song from the end of ep 1. The opening lyric “I’m taking a ride with my best friend.” feels so different between ep 1 and ep 6. And the tone of the Depeche Mode version fits the creepiness of going out into post-apocalypse Boston vs. the tone of this cover (by Craig Mazin’s 18yr old daughter btw) being so somber.
The music choices in this show are just as good as the rest of it.
It was cool to see the couple from Northern Exposure pop up in this episode.
Yes! I got super excited to see them.
Great Easter egg catch by Hector for the name of the movie being “The Goodbye Girl” right before the conversation where Joel tries to pass Ellie off to Tommy. That’s a great detail I didn’t know until now
Damn, good job spotting the camera crew Adam haha. Have seen a few articles about that but definitely didn't catch them while watching the first time. Eagle eye!
This! I did not catch it myself, just read about it, but after a couple of reactions I've seen Adam has been the only one to spot it!
When Ellie is petting Shimmer you can spot a hand in that scene too. I guess someone was holding the horse in place.
It's amazing how much we learn about Joel this episode. How he feels weak and helpless when he's losing control over his emotions. How much he needs to be THE guy to handle things and protect people, he was so jealous of Maria and Tommy for not only surviving but living. As Tommy said, they used to survive the only way they knew how and for Joel this is the only way he can survive and keep his feelings burried.
I can relate to his panic attacks so much and it's so clear why he got them. It's so interesting to see how much control his trauma has about him and how he fails to make emotional mature decisions, because of it. he just gets selfish and a little aggressive. This episode and the things we learnt are going to be really important
Love how in the mid of Joel having a heart or panic attack, dude is naming that other actors credentials, lol.
I’ve become a huge fan of you guys through this series - I’m going through and watching some of your other reactions. Your objective points of view are so great and you always point out the things I like to hear. Thank you for helping me enjoy this incredible show even more!
MCU shows cemented them as my top 3 for sure, but like you said this series with them was just excellent, way more then usual
Hector, from someone that's played the games to someone that's playing now. The series is doing a pretty damn good job of emulating what the game did! Saying nothing about the next episode but gamers know what the title means😉
Another great reaction! My wife wanted me to do a wellness check on y’all earlier today, she was worried we hadn’t heard from you guys in a minute. So I’m thrilled that you’re back and getting just as emotionally distraught and anxious over this show as ever. ;)
you guys are my favourite reactors! i love how hector is also playing along with the game, his perspective is so interesting to hear about! excited to see y'all react to the last 3 episodes
Yeah about the Northern Lights, they are digital effects. Aurora moves much more slowly. In films they always are made to pulsate faster.
One of the best moments in TLoU Ellie and Joel. I'm sure excited Hector will find out how it was in the game, and cant wait to hear his opinion when he talks about it on the next episode.
Big Up’s to Hector for mentioning Graham Greene a true legend in Indian Country. And Elaine Miles from Northern Exposure killed it!
I agree… the Joel + tommy reunion verse. Joel + Ellie relationship at this point… makes you feel like Joel and Ellie are more family than Joel and tommy (or rather that Joel and Ellie are closer art this point in time). Of course Joel and tommy are blood… but tommy has a wife and new kid on the way… and Joel has ellie. In the beginning of the season Joel says he keeps going for family (and says that is tommy) but now Joel keeps going for family but that now means ellie. No spoilers, but that concept is important for everything else that happens in the story. (Plus: Joel becomes a zombie when his daughter dies… just shambling through life dead inside… but Ellie is the cure)
I love that Hector is playing the game now! I agree that the changes the show makes adds even more to the greatness of the story. And it really makes sense. The creator of the game is doing the show. He literally is given a second chance to improve on his own story. And he's been doing that brilliantly so far. Plus, Craig Mazin is an amazing writer who also adores the source material. In a behind the scenes clip Neil Druckmann said "When we have an idea to change something, we look at it and its effect. If it is better than what's in the game, we make the change. If it's the same quality or worse, we stick to the original." Simple principal, executed perfectly.
I wonder what emotional change would happen after this now that Joel's fear really did happen. I'm sure he'll recover but he's now left Ellie vulnerable and can't protect her anymore because he's losing consciousness.
Hector, it’s funny that when you said “I want this to be the series finale” the song that was playing was the song that plays in the game’s ending.
It's a cover of Depeche Mode's "Never Let Me Down Again" (from the ending of the 1st episode), right?
@@djoscartj it’s called “The Path (A New Beginning)” by Gustavo Santaolalla.
@@djoscartj They're talking about the song playing during Joel and Ellie's horse ride, the one that was "too happy", it's called The Path (A New Beginning)
@@CataRDJ Got it. Thought they were talking about the very end, which could have also been a "good" season finale (never played the game)
You have no idea how happy I am to see more people openly talking about fanfiction lol. Thank you for that.
I think Tommy was very selfish. Joel worried about him and he couldn't even bother to let Joel know he was fine.
13:41 is relatable to me. You could have told me on the radio you wouldn’t be contacting me anymore. Instead of me walking cross country to find this out.
Hector, I feel you. I literally started writing a fanfiction where everything goes okay because I needed it to deal with the upcoming episodes lmao
Dances with Wolves! I knew that guy in the cabin looked familiar. He was the chief on that reservation where the lady was from I think.
'I love it, but I don't wike it' is such a vibe with this show.
As a game player, this episode was great because it had a lot of surprising nods to the sequel that I wasn't expecting.
The rising concern over how nice the ep feels and wishing it could all end here, the true last of us experience XD
You kept us waiting!!! Excited to watch!
Appreciate y’all, and these reactions. And I love Hector’s comments. Sure, sometimes they talk over bits it’d be cool for them to see/feel, but presumably everyone watching this has already seen the episode. We’re hear for their thoughts/reactions.
I love watching your guys' reviews. It's SO good.
"TOMMY!" almost made me tear up
I had no idea that was Graham Greene! Holy shit! He plays Arlen Bitterbuck in The Green Mile and is one of my favorite "side" characters ever.
Fun fact: the people that you guys noticed at the end of the snowy bridge, who you thought were enemies, is actually the film crew 😂 they messed up and forgot to edit themselves out haha cool that you noticed, good eye
Another great reaction! Love your videos, you guys make me laugh after the episodes tear me apart every Sunday. These 3 episodes left are gonna be nuts
How many times do we need to tell you we haven’t played the game?
Hector: Yeah well about that.
The actress playing Graham Greene's wife at the beginning (Elaine Miles) played Marilyn on the show "Northern Exposure", one of my favorite characters.
yay im so glad y’all posted!!
I was waiting for this 🥺
Sameeeee
Yoooo Hector is playing the game that's great ! He'll be able to share so much context with the lads!!
Love that Hector is playing along as we go through the season, good luck keeping yourself from playing part 2 until season 2!!!
Really enjoying these reactions!
There are bunch of people standing to the left of that bridge! Right at the edge of the screen. I rewatched that scene after Adam mentioned it. Didn't notice the first time, nice catch!
i think it was last episode that hector said something about "how much of this story is going to be just bleakness, is there any hope to be found" and i think the big hope is the town of jackson. a safe place where people have everything they need still being possible is amazing
this has to be the funniest reaction to the episode ive seen. "i want this to be the series finale, roll the credits!" like thats all of us AND I KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!! HAHAHA also chugging monster is not the best idea when youre stressed af haha
Two things, one i love how you guys really dig into the emotions and the dialogue of characters, not just with this but also the marvel stuff and mando. The action is cool, but you guys really focus on the dialogue and emotions and i freaking love that.
2….there’s just something about when adam breaks out in laughter, i might have missed the joke but I can’t help but laugh the same🤣🤣
Having gone through the game tens of times way back when and loving almost every little detail, it’s taken significant effort to watch the show and not automatically think “the game did it better”. Recognizing that it may be partly because that came first for me, I’ve wondered if people who experience the show first then play the game would actually like the show more, and while it’s tough for me to fully understand I really appreciate hearing that specific sentiment here!
I look forward to these reaction videos almost as much as the episodes themselves 😂
This was my favorite episode had the most used music from the game and had so many game moments
Pedro's performance in this episode really cemented that he chose the correct vocation. I have only been affected by a performance like that a few times recently Beast of No Nation and Moonlight come to mind.
I really liked the touch at the end, they play a cover of the same Depeche Mode song from Ep1 but a cover. it's 80s means trouble in a totally different way. Last 3 episodes are going to be bonkers.
It's always fun to see you suffering during each of these incredible episodes, just like the rest of us, but I especially enjoy your collective appreciation of all the talent by both cast and crew that make this brilliant game adaptation SO GOOD!
I'm so glad you guys are watching this show 😭
Also, I think it be fun if you guys watched romance shows like Bridgerton. It's way out of the usual shows you react to but it be so funny seeing your videos talking about it. I'm excited to see what else you'll be reacting too.
Song playing at the end of the episode was a remake of the 80’S SONG first heard at the end of episode one when over looking a torn down Boston. “DANGER” ahead…
Finally! I've been waiting. You guys have the best reactions. Love to see the perspective from people who never played the games. Are you planning on playing the game together somehow? That would make for an excellent series!
They joked last reaction if they reach certain milestone. Don't know how serious about they were
We said we'd play through the game if we got to 200k subs by March. It's not looking good for the playthrough 😞
@@HeroesReforged Ah that sucks! I say do it anyways I definitely think it would boost your subcount. People love seeing new reactions.
Actually Ellie’s hands at the end made me cry.
7:06 yep, that was the film crew u saw at the end of the bridge 😅😂
So many Easter eggs and references to the second game here
That lady in the cabin during the beginning....she is the same who played the clinic nurse on a series called.. "Northern Exposure".
You guys are just the best reactors to the last of us !!
Awesome review, guys!!!!! 👍👍👍
Love the acting and cinematography
The brick campus they walk through is where I went to college (SAIT)
Anyone else wondering what hector is looking at when he keeps looking down
@@karenstrong9571 “we haven’t played the game”. “So this is just like the game.”
20:15 - 20:25 awwwww guys, just prep yourselves🙃
guy in the flannel don't talk over the dialogue so much, just watch and be in the moment. save it for after. 😭
I am so happy Hector is playing the game! ❤
You guys are great. Wonderful content.
At 7:06, looks like Adam had it right with spotting someone at the end of the bridge. Actually there's two sets of people. Funny!
