Getting bored. Been far too many deep moments already, and not enough action. Last thing the show needed was a filler episode.
I guess Neil was out of the office the day this one was written.

@badcontestant Bull. What made the game so great were the outbursts of extreme violence and seeing how far Joel would go to protect the values and morals of a world long since passed for him, interspersed with touching moments between himself and Ellie when that same world showed them just how beautiful it still had the capacity to be.
So far, the show has shown none of those touching moments between the two main characters, and has instead given us rushed and forced "reach for the tissues" tear jerkers of true small screen style. And the only moment of desperate violence it has given us was the fight in the museum, which also led to one of those aforementioned tear jerkers.
So far, the show has none of the subtle genius the game gave us.
