As you’ve no doubt seen on your (inarguably Musk-ruined) timeline, Melanie Lynskey—who last year received an Emmy nomination for her role on […]
When HBO announced that they would be adapting The Last of Us—widely considered one of the greatest video games ever made—into a full-length television series—the reaction was excitement, followed by skepticism.

HBO continues its relationship with Jerrod Carmichael. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the 35-year-old will star in a “comedy documentary series” that focuses on his personal life.

[Ed Note: MAJOR spoilers for The Last of Us’ third episode—“Long Long Time”—below.] I haven’t stopped thinking about Episode 3 of HBO’s The Last of Us since I watched it.
