Boozy Beginnings: The Last of Us Pilot

Send us a text

Happy Wine Wednesday! This week we are kicking off our regular coverage of The Last of Us with a discussion about the amazing pilot episode of the HBO series.  We talk about the pacing of the writing, our introduction to Joel, and our thoughts on the rules of zombie engagement.  We were both deeply concerned about how fast these zombies move. 

Programming Note: In the episode, I reference my conversation with Terence Johnson about Interview with a Vampire.  That was previously scheduled to come out before this episode, but my editor made a miracle happen and we got this discussion back quicker than expected.  Stay tuned next week for my very fun discussion with Terence about Interview with a Vampire and the absolutely delightful onscreen presence of Jacob Anderson.

As always - we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a good time!

And check out recent episodes on Abbott Elementary Season 2 (so far), a reckoning for Sleepy Hollow, The Bear, and race (or lack thereof) in House of the Dragon.  Maddie joined me to discuss the pilot episode of House of the Dragon and we did a Season 1 recap. 

Until next Wine Wednesday!
