    Lots of murder and thieving in this show. Pretty sure the Bible is pretty specific about those things too. Don’t think the writer is pushing an agenda on murder and robbing people. And in the game it was implied the characters were gay/involved so they didn’t screw around with the source material.

    I'll take your word for it - not brink of extinction, yet. How much does that actually change the question of natural selection? Do you really think that it's totally irrelevant here?

    According to the OP, the director was pushing an agenda. Also, an earlier post in this thread mentioned that the two characters, in question, hated each other in the video game.

    they came to hate each other but they had been partners for years before that. All they did was make it a happier relationship.

    Surprised about some much fluster about homosexuality… killing at a young age, death squads, assisted suicide, dying for love, and finding purpose in one’s life was more interesting.

    There’s no such thing as a happy homosexual relationship in the world of the far right.

    I thought it was a bizarre episode. Pretty standalone and not presently plot connected. Ymmv

    It helped transition the story from the escape from Boston. Joel had a standing relationship with the guy and had traded with him while there. It was a decent pause but a staple of apocalypse movies is all kinds of weird, horrible and wonderful stories. This was a wonderful episode well acted. I’m sure there wll be some not so micety nice ones to follow. It’s like game of thrones some episodes are just brutal and you need an uplifting one.

    interesting take my many on the kid. I kind of like her smart alicyclic attitude.

    I know nothing of it but was considering watching. I was hoping it wasn't a pseudo walking dead type deal. Everybody likes it i guess

    Episode 4 is out now. The gay disease is completely gone and good old fashioned American heterosexual violence is back, so it's safe for the far right to watch again.

    If you enjoy watching gay sex, by all means, have at it. I’m sure you can find it in abundance.
    If you like sex scenes with obese people, have at it.
    I don’t like to see either, and you look silly trying to point that out.

    I wasn’t comfortable watching the intimate scene even tho it was hardly explicit. it didn’t last long

    the focus of the episode was much more on their relationship

    it’s not a bad show. But I don’t find it nearly as completing as the early seasons of Walking Dead

    Not so fast Ellie is supposedly gay or had a gay relationship in the game so we’re probably going to see that plus IRL the actress is “gender fluid”.

    I don't know. The gang leader appeared to be female, giving orders to guys. That might still trigger some of the insecure incels that populate the Right.
