The Last of Us Season 2 Episode 5 keeps the emotional bruises coming while reminding us why this show stays undefeated at making heartbreak feel cinematic. This

The name Leon is mentioned only in environmental storytelling in The Last of Us Part II, and it references another character. But there's some ironic overlap.

I also really enjoyed “The Last of Us” on HBO, and named the first season (which covered the events of the first The Last of Us video game) the best video game adaptation ever. I should also adore “The Last of Us” season 2, considering it’s adapting what I believe to be even stronger source material.

It's the sound of a song we've been waiting for in The Last of Us, fluttering out the window. In Season 2, episode 5, Ellie (Bella Ramsey) takes to the stage of Seattle's crumbling Pinnacle Theater, where instruments remain set for a performance never given.

The Last of Us season 2 will have 7 episodes that will air on HBO for cable subscribers and Max. The season's first episodes will be released on April 13, while new episodes will drop weekly on Sundays at 9 PM ET.

In both The Last of Us Part 1 and Part 2, spores have always been a key part of the narrative. Whenever anyone but Ellie descends into a heavily infected zone, they put on a mask to make sure they don't get exposed. However, this is the first time it's been introduced in the adaptation.

Bella Ramsey offers interesting layers to Ellie's psyche in the latest episode of HBO's The Last of Us, especially during the final act.

If it feels like The Last of Us Season 2 just began, you’re not alone. Especially if (SPOILER ALERT!) you’re still grieving the shocking death of Joel (Pedro Pascal) in Episode 2, “The Path,” at the hands of new character Abby (Kaitlyn Dever).

As we learn over the first few episodes of The Last of Us Season 2, the WLF is based in Seattle. But it's not until episodes 3 and 4 we actually get to see the scale of the group, with episode 5 really dropping a reality check on our protagonists.
