Tommy is sniping at Abby's friends. Ellie goes to the aquarium but I'd argue that's not a good idea since we've had no episodes of Abby. There's no connection of Owen, Abby, or Mel in the show for the audience

Audience won't care about these characters since we have no Abby episodes

Lets be honest here. This show is mid at best. If it was not on HBO, based on a known property or had notable actors no one would care about this show. Compared to other HBO shows like TGoT the action is mediocre. Compared to TWD (even though the show fell off) the threat of the infected is not well represented as the zombies in TWD are. As someone said Ellie and Dina are super loud. They did a poor job of making the world feel dangerous as if there is no virus or infected enemies outside of certain areas like the subway. Even when they encountered the WLF we did not see the combat capability that they possessed. Now I have not watched the latest episode so maybe they did them justice and the dogs better had been in it. The world building is trash with no obstacles during their travels and just includes a bunch of pointless talking that adds nothing to the story. What is Ellie's motivation? yeah she is looking for Abby, but that town meeting the episode that Joel died ruined it, because there are more than Abby and her friends. So as I said before having that town meeting was pointless since it takes away from Ellie's motive being revenge only. Killing Abby is not going to stop the WLF if the town thinks there could be more attacks. They have a whole army like WTF! LOL. I just want to see how they recreate certain scenes and they have not delivered.

They skipped over a lot shit to hit a bunch emotional beats. The show is nowhere near as dark or exciting as the game got.

It’s like they catered this season around female YouTube reaction channels.

Didn’t that big ass rat creature thing show up in the hospital basement in the game? Guess they skipped that since the end of the episode showed Ellie already back outside. Now that is a little disappointing because that would have been great to see in live action. I don’t know how show Ellie would beat it. Maybe just run away from it or something, but still.

That's Abby's boss battle

Should have done alternating episodes instead of doing this season of Ellie and likely next season of Abby

I do agree with that. I’m not looking forward to a full season that’s Abby led. Hopefully they focus more on the overall WLF/Scar conflict led by Jeffrey Wright.
 
What's up with this show and flash backs after the fact. Could have just shown her POV in alternating episodes. It would have made so much more sense IMO. I'm surprised the creator signed off on this

IIRC Jesse told Ellie he didn't care about Ellie and Dina because he moved on and doesn't feel that way about Dina

Agree a back and forth for 2 seasons makes better sense than 1 season with Ellie and 1 season with Abby. Next season they better have a good ass story seeing as all of the characters will have barely been introduced.

They already got rid of Joel and now there won’t be any Ellie or even Dina and Tommy.
