Finally the show is on! If you can overlook the difference in appearance from video game Ellie (based upon former Ellen Page, now Elliot Page) to tv show Ellie without thinking of Game of thrones and Lady Lyanna of the house of Mormont or missing baby Yoda, then you are about to enjoy the joyride.
Perfectly detailed, so far faithful to the game, good acting, good setting and environment, it feels like we are playing the game all over again. Eager to see what's coming after this successful first episode.
Pedro Pascal delivers as usual and it's not a surprise that Bella Ramsey becomes her character in such a convincing way. She is a young promise without a doubt, but her face in no way resembles the original Ellie's. With luck her acting will be so good that we will put the other Ellie behind without effort.
If you have played the game and you are nostalgic of those many hours in the dark looking for the light, this show is for you.
If you haven't played the game but you are in the dark after the season finale of TWD lacking a decent zombie/infected/ fungus show, look for the light in this one.
If they manage to keep the audience on their toes and create good character relations, perhaps this will be with us for a few seasons. I certainly hope so.
