澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us has been called "outstanding" and "devastating" by viewers. Shortly after the first episode of the eagerly anticipated HBO adaptation landed on HBO, those tuning in took to social media to praise the opener – and it seems as if they were most delighted by the performances of Pedro Pasca🤡l and Bella Ramsey and how faithful it is to the games.

For those who have not played the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Naughty Dog video games on which its based, the show centers on Joel (Pascal), a smuggler who's tasked wit𒊎h escorting Ellie (Ramsey), a young girl with a potentially society-changing secret, out of their quarantine zone and across the United States. A mission that's not so easy, considering the world has been ravaged by a violent fungal infection that has destroyed civilization and turned some of its hosts into vicious, mushroom-headed monsters.

"The first 35 minutes of The Last of Us is one of the most devastating pieces of television I’ve seen in years. Just a sublime start to this series," , while : "Just watched the first ep of Last of Us. It's so good. Pedro Pascal is such a good actor in his own right, but here, he just is Joel. I don't see Pedro. I see Joel. I can already tell how ꦛgood the rest is going to be. Also, it saves me ever having to play it again which is good."
