Ashley Johnson

i don't think a show has honored the source material quite like what the last of us did with ashley johnson. watching ashley portray anna and share a scene with baby ellie — knowing all of the work ashley put into ellie and how much she loves her — is truly remarkable. i wept pic.twitter.com/gWg1CQhtAm

) and Ellie (), watching them set off on an epic journey across a mushroom-ravaged America. Last night’s finale was the shortest episode in the season and offered up a play-by-play of the video game with detail. Anyone who’s played the game probably wasn’t surprised by how fucked up everything gets at the end, but it’s still shocking to revisit. A total of 8.2 million individuals sat down to watch the final episode of , breaking viewership records set by *checks notes* . As someone who thought was a , I’m glad to see that HBO has a new child in town snatching views. Let’s not forget the show drew in all of those viewers while airing at the same time as the Oscars. Now an accomplishment. Now let’s get into some Twitter reactions. Fans of the game were elated to see on screen playing the role of Ellie’s mum. For those who don’t know, Johnson is the voice of Ellie in the video games, which was a nice little throwback. Others obsessed over the father-daughter dynamic between the pair hitting some sweet highs during the ep. Joel finding the strength to move on from his daughter’s death thanks to Ellie? My heart is shattered glass. And of course, there was the whole traumatic hospital scene in which Joel sacrifices innocent lives just so Ellie can live on. It’s an act driven by love and greed, and it’s hard to watch. And then you have the gut-punch ending in which Joel lies to Ellie’s face and tells her that everyone died because a bunch of “raiders” came in to attack them, but he luckily escaped in time. Ellie asks Joel at the very end of the ep if this story was true, and he decides to double down on his fib. Unfortunately we won’t be able to see where the hell this goes until 2025 at the earliest, which pains my soul. Until then I guess I’ll just start watching ? I need to get my Pedro fix somehow.
