I am sure that's what they are trying to do but it's dull. That last episode was so flat. Runtime
of an episode is more that half of an average movie yet they just waste it with the two stumbling around a mall until the time is up to kill one off. There was no spark or excitement, apart from there being a Zombie apocalypse in the background it's all pretty pedestrian.
No. Don't see this. Each of the 'slower episodes' is giving us the backstory of the characters. Last episode, how Ellie had fallen in love with Riley, then lost that love, then gained a familial love in Joel and didn't want to lose that. Suppose it can be a bit simplistic, but i'm loving it.
