> It's easily the best live-action video game adaptation.

I agree completely, unfortunately that doesn't really mean anything.

My only issue with the show is that after episode 2, the infected were a non-issue. The infected had one major moment in E4 and it was a mess.

> How does the show compare the original video game?

It followed the structure of the story perfectly.

> Does it surpass it or does it fall short?

The show makes you form the same emotional connections with the characters. The game had more action.

> What does it gain from being a TV show and what does it long from not being a video game?

The gains are a much larger audience. It is one of the best games ever and more people getting into these types of games is great, as that will just mean more of these games being made.

> Will it lead to more video game adaptations?

Absolutely. Hollywood is the most shameless copy cat business in existence.

> How does the show also compare to the zombie hit The Walking Dead that ended recently?

I dumped TWD in the fourth season. TLOU S1 was better than those four seasons.

> Has it been able to take the space that was previously occupied by that show?

Not at all. TWD is much more open ended. TLOU will be another of the greatest mini-series to exist.

Yes there is a second and third season coming, but unless the writers do some serious alterations that has a finite ending as well.

> How does the show compare to other beloved HBO shows?

It is in the top five.

> Is it better than HBO's other big hit House of Dragon?

Yes

> How does it compare to the critical and awards darling that is Succession?

I don't not have an informed opinion.

I am not binging Shadow and Bone. The first episode was great!

If that was the season where we finally got to see Amos go back to Baltimore I guess it was mine too. That isn't saying much as I hated all the Amazon season. Amos's return to Baltimore was such an anticipated event and it was just such a nothing burger bullshit series of events.

OMG in the show the Naomi family drama was the same three way conversation over and over again that went nowhere.

The second half of the first season is excellent as are S2 and S3.

It really fell apart when it moved to Amazon, season 4 was boring, season 5 was just garbage and season 6 was to little to late.

I got bored of it in the third season. I wouldn't say it went off the rails, it just kept doing the same thing over and over again and it got boring.

> Where should I go for a legitimate as possible pay loan?

No where. There is no such thing as a legitimate payday loan. I would go talk to the storage unit company.

The Colosseum is awesome, it is just dirty as hell and neglected. The nice thing about The Colosseum is it is 24 hours.

Lifetime is very clean but unless you want to use a stairmaster the equipment blows.

Chinese food has a finite top end. There is no improve it, there is just making it poorly.

Add to that list:

• Qarth
• The Sand Snakes

There is no big mystery to it. The Last of Us was a better show.

It is excellent!

The Winds of War mini series got me to read The Winds of War and War and Remembrance.

Shadow and Bone led me to read Six of Crows, which is the prequel to the books the show is based on.

> If you live in the parts of Silver Spring

Why on earth would you do that? Silver Spring is just a more crowded version of Columbia. Might as well just live in Columbia.

Getting from DC to Columbia will be a nightmare. Getting out of DC will be a complete pain in the ass in the morning and going back in the evening will be even more of a pain in the ass.

Watching a TV show or movie get filmed is cool for a very short time. I did a tour of Warner Brothers studio earlier this year and it was cool for the two or three hours I was on site.

After that there just isn't much to see.

When the shooting of scenes starts you aren't really allowed to be around anyway, so.

All of them are.

Dodek and Dodek. I have used them for 20+ years and they are great!

Keep looking there is more.

> More outlets doesn’t make more artists.

Yes it does.

> There’s still only about the same number of people capable of making something good.

And the great thing about having more outlets is your discover more.

> I can easily recommend 25 quality TV shows/seasons

Can you do that for 2021, 2020, 2019 etc?

25 great shows with all the media outlets we have now doesn't seem like too many to me.

You want them catered right, so order them in advance. They are just wings man. All wings have a ceiling.
