Watched the first two on Friday night and took me half an hour to recognise Beverley Crusher, she's had more work done than most aliens on Star Trek!! Enjoyed it but has potential to be Last of the Summer Wine with all the octogenarians!
Re. the last of us - there's a guy on youtube doing comparison videos to the game for anyone that might be interested. I've played the game a couple of times but not for a while so was interesting to see the differences. The game voice acting is second to none in my opinion and feels more authentic than the show, though I'm still enjoying it.
My God! They're almost the same. The video game is so realistic - NB. I haven't played anything but FIFA since the early nineties.
What I don't understand is if the game is so scripted, what does the player actually do? I suppose you shoot guns but what about scenes like giving a present on the sofa?

There are far more infected in the game that you have to deal with, not just guns but plenty of stealth. My memory isn't great on it but think there are other playable areas that are about bonding between Joel and Ellie. Plenty of cut scenes like the present scene that tell the story.
Yes, different enough to make a change, just couldn’t believe in Bulgy as I swear that actor usually just plays idiots or he was one of the Do-it-all men? Bit disappointed with the ending but otherwise very good…

I thought it was fairly average. Couple of decent episodes but another couple were too slow. Not the best ending to top it off. I watched some of it being filmed and got a free lunch as they used my work building for 2 days too.
But just watched 5 days at Memorial an apple tv series, true events based on what happened at Memorial hospital in New Orleans after Katrina
Fantastic series and knowing it was based on real events makes some of it hard to watch, you don't realise what actually happens in these events, I remember seeing Katrina on the news at the time but seeing this series has opened my eyes to so much horror
Mandalorian Season 3 Ep 1 - Star Wars is back and that sub-40 minute episode was a bit reminiscent of a Flash Gordon serial episode, three chapters within an episode, Beast fight, street fight and space battle included. Actually like the shorter format and how fast paced it was. Mission for season 3 will no doubt have twists and turns but at its core we now know what Mando wants… Looking forward to next week. One slight complaint, the Anzellan species special effects/puppeteering were inferior (budget I suspect) than in the Rise of Skywalker, noticeably so, which could have been addressed. Also, they screwed up with an unnecessary sound effect in an early scene - which categorically had no reason to be there. See if you spot it? Anyway, nerd out…

Ooooh I’m saving a few to do at once. Can’t wait 🤩

Yeah there are long sections of stealth where you are waiting for the right time to move. You can go gung-ho but you may not have the ammo, or you risk getting overwhelmed. Then there's some down time where characters bond. It is as story-heavy as I know of in video games, particularly TLOU2! That is longer so will be across 2 TV seasons.
The first episode of the new South Park season is very good, then the second episode is good. Episode 3 is on Comedy Central tonight.

Last of the Chateau Picard Wine?
My expectations are low/average.
We shall see but I'm reasonably confident it'll still be good.
