Besides the video game actors for Tommy, Joel and Ellie being in the show, Marlenes actress is in it aswell. While they got to play different characters she got to play the same character again.

Welcome to the "did Joel do the right thing?" club. We gamers have been debating that ending for 10 years and probably always will be. Pull up a chair, make yourself comfortable lol. I can't wait until season 2 comes out. It's gonna be a RIDE. Do you remember when I said that the song they used for Bill and Frank going to their room for the final time was beautiful but very cruel because of where it's used in game? *points to giraffe scene. It's fucking cheating and I love them for that lol

TLOU is a truly great television series and this has been a wonderful, insightful and touching reaction!

Henry: "So you still think they should take it easy on me, or am I the bad guy? (pause) I don't know what you're waitin' on man, the answer's easy. I am the bad guy because I did a bad guy thing." I loved this ending so much. I'm with you, I don't know how to feel about what Joel did. Objectively, he did the wrong thing. He placed his own needs ahead of the needs of the entire world and betrayed his adopted daughter to do it. But at the same time, it was a very human thing to do, and I really can't blame him for it. It's phenomenal story telling. Great reaction, Lexi! Thanks for sharing with us 😁

Another great episode. I'm sad we have to wait for season 2 now. :( One thing that bothered me in this episode is that nobody ever bothered to tell Ellie the situation and ask her what she wanted to do. Joel was being a bit selfish and putting his feelings first by killing the Fireflies and taking Ellie, and then lying to her about it. (Granted, I certainly sympathize and understand where he's coming from). Then you have Marlene saying that sacrificing herself for the cure is what Ellie would have wanted. Maybe it would have been, but did anyone bother to ask Ellie's opinion on the matter before making these decisions for her? No.

You really hit the nail on the head with your review. The essence of the game and also this show, was breaking with this stereotype of the good hero. Usually in games and shows and movies you have your hero. And he will kill sometimes to safe loved ones, humanity etc... But you never question his/her way. In this show it´s very different. First they build up this charatcer, and in the last episode they make you question him. But not too much, so that in the end you are caught in between understanding and beeing disgusted. And you start questioning right and wrong yourself. That´s what made the game so great, and that´s what makes the series great. I´m glad you got exactly where the producers wanted you to be in the end there. This show is much deeper than you would think at first. As someone who played the game, I have to say the hospital shooting hit way harder on me in the show, than in the game. Because in the game you get used to shooting people from the very start, and you "do it yourself" while playing the character. It´s what you do, when you play a video game. But seeing it from the outside perspective like it was handled in the show it felt way more immersive and frightening. And that music in the backround ..... Oh by the way, the giraffe wasn´t CGI, it was real. :) They really went to a zoo and put bluescreen everywhere, but it was a real animal :)
