Didn’t realize next week is the season finale. It’s ending so fast. This one I think tops the list for most gruesome so far.

Another [entire walking dead season arc but in 1 episode] episode. At least we moved the main plot forward an inch, and the character stuff was all really good. Kinda weird to have the penultimate episode not even bother to set up anything for the finale. Doesn’t give me a lot of confidence heading into next week, for a lot of reasons. But we’ll see, still an enjoyable watch.

They were hinting at the cannibalism at the tomatoes and 'venison' scene. You could tell they were savages right at that point since the cook didn't even bother to sear the 'venison' before chucking it in the stew. And then you see the ear. Now you think ok, why would they be cutting ears off unless they were some awful murdkiller cannibals that were cutting the ears off their friends and like making jokes like "Oh that Louis-Tony Slugger, he loved that bat and just thought he'd run up on anybody or a monkey screaming and beat it to death. 'HEY LOUIE, I THINK THEY HEAR YOU COMING!' and bam he's dead." Or they were totally normal community driven cannibals that liked to eat faces. Secondly, while they were on monkey meat hunt, the town probably was normalized to the taste of monkey meat. So the butchers were chopping up monkey heads. And also as sick cannibals were probably joking around about it too, like reenacting the monkey brain scene from Indiana Jones 2. Personally, I think this episode was garbage.

I know this is a joke but that's actually what I think you're supposed to do if you're in a real starvation situation. You lose calories when you grill the meat over direct heat, but if you boil it in water and then drink the resulting soup then you get as close to 100% of the nutrition as possible.

You still put it in in the stew and pour the drippings into it. Just because they're eating people doesn't mean they can't cook it right.

This show nicely harkens back to the early days of serialized TV on HBO. What I mean is, to steal Speinwall’s favorite complaint, is too much of modern serialized TV feels like a 8 to 10 episode movie (see Stranger Things) and TLOU avoids that. There are a lot of shows that it is hard to distinguish individual episodes when looking back at a full season. That said shows like Six Feet Under (I loved the family dinners), The Sopranos, Deadwood, and so on had episodes that felt self contained while continuing the story. Every episode so far of TLOU have felt completely contained, while continuing the overall story arch. Now TLOU gets to cheat, since in the end it is a journey forward, a quest. Still I have really enjoyed that and outside of the 2 episode arc of Kansas City, each episode has almost (loosely) been self contained. It is one the things I enjoyed about The Crown too, which is really just masquerading as a serialized series.

I'm allergic to penicillin and have never been given it and never thought about an injectable form or where it goes in. Before I look it up, my guess would be to inject it on the arm either in the vein or arm muscle, would probably go for the muscle because finding a vein is a skill. Bad news if you're meant to apply directly to improvised weapon wound, I'd be too scared to stab there. Edit: okay so the answer is anyone infected with me is hosed without the internet to look up the specific drug Khanstant fucked around with this message at 05:11 on Mar 6, 2023 |

As far as I know, penicillin should be injected IM (intramuscular), so into the upper arm or into the buttocks. I take Lovenox (heparin) and insulin injections multiple times daily (for anticoagulation and diabetes), and those need to go into fatty tissue, like the belly or the thigh.

I mean, I've had antibiotics before and it's either a pill or an IV drip or I think a shot into my arm? I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be specifically a bad thing that she was shooting it all right into the wound. Still ruminating on that scene of Joel's. Jesus. I'm used to having a dark protagonist with a heart of gold but man, that was some straight-up evil torturer poo poo.

I get that real life explosions would blow my eardrums out, but that's not what I'm looking for from a tv show/movie I had a pretty decent 7 point stereo system and a few times when one friend was over stoned I cranked it up very loudly playing Call of Duty on the xbox for offensively loud gunfire sounds and stuff, to where it mildly hurt the ears, the guns going off produced a little bit of concussion and were loud enough to shock you a bit. That was a lot of fun But yes generally it's bad in more traditional media for reasons

Also having 25 episodes a season was loving awesome, even if it means you get boring and bad episodes sometimes. Even those have charming moments or somethign funny in them. I miss that from modern prestige tv. This is pretty close, though sadly a short season, though obviously standard these days.

Guy really piled on the creepy characteristics when any one of his things are evil enough on their own. Fatality at end well deserved. Ellie extremely quick thinking on her feet backed into the worst corners. I did expect some kind of "albatross soup" moment with the community the next day if they were served real venison, but preacher couldn't even wait a day before not even trying to hide being evil anymore.

I take Lovenox (heparin) and insulin injections multiple times daily (for anticoagulation and diabetes), and those need to go into fatty tissue, like the belly or the thigh. Penicillin is primarily injected intramuscular in those common locations because it is usually used to treat a systemic infection and that’s usually more effective overall. However, Penicillin and many other drugs work fine when injected locally at a specific part of the body to fight an infection/reduce pain/etc. A good example are oral injections in dental procedures often contain a penicillin based solution that is injected as a local Prophylactic. The biggest risk of injecting penicillin not in the arm/buttocks is accidentally injecting it into a vein and causing seizures, tissue damages, heart attack, or death. Outside of the veins servicing the abdominal organs, there aren’t many veins where Ellie injected. Joel’s reaction was a bit extreme in getting better so quickly but penicillin is a very strong drug when injected. It will immediately start breaking down bacteria causing the infection and you will see significant improvements within a day in some cases.

Very good episode. As another poster said it's not clear (as a non game player) where the finale is headed. Since game players are insisting that it is going somewhere and all (or at least some) of the groundwork is in motion I'm very confident we are in for a treat and a well done episode. Can't wait to come back here next week and see the complaints about not properly bracing a neck injury, pumping a bike tire, or poaching an egg.

Watched some side-by-side clips of the game and the show from a few episodes, and it's pretty clear the game owns too. edit: reading back a page and someone said the Joel game voice actor was in this episode so I googled him and quote:Troy Baker (born April 1, 1976) is an American voice actor and musician. Baker is known for his video game roles, including Joel Miller in The Last of Us franchise, Booker DeWitt in BioShock Infinite (2013), Samuel "Sam" Drake in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (2016) and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy (2017), Rhys in Tales from the Borderlands (2014), Snow Villiers in Final Fantasy XIII (2010), Kanji Tatsumi in Persona 4 (2008), Higgs Monaghan in Death Stranding (2019), and Talion in Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor (2014) and Middle-earth: Shadow of War (2017). He also voiced Magni in God of War (2018). He currently holds the record for the most acting nominations at the BAFTA Games Awards, with 5 between 2013 and 2021. Holy poo poo. This guy is the Midas Touch of voice acting. I've played a bunch of those games and never could have guessed it was all the same guy.
