The finale of “Our Last” Season 2 is frustrating. This is why.

There is no feeling around the bushes: Our last one‘The Season 2 finale was a major disappointment.

After seven episodes of game-changing deaths, heartbreaking flashbacks and occasional bi-hearted gestures about the conflict between Washington’s Liberation Front and the Six-Wing, Season 2 ends with a confusing cliff, meaning to inspire the excitement of Season 3. Our final second part Go to TV.

Our last one Season 2’s Abby Cliffhanger was unable to work with him for several years between seasons.

At the end of Season 2, Abby (Kaitlyn Dever) hits the theater where Ellie (Bella Ramsey) and Isabela Merced have been hiding. There, she kills Jesse (Young Mazino) and wound Tommy (Gabriel Luna) and then switches the gun to Ellie. When she fires Our last one Cut black and pour into the clock. The next time we saw Abby, it was a few days ago. More specifically, it was “the first day in Seattle” when Ellie and Dina arrived in the city. This means that season 3 will cover the three days from Abby’s perspective, showing us what she’s been doing since she disappeared from the show after her murder of Pedro Pascal in episode 2.

A series of events including perspective shifts, including perspective shifts are very similar between TV shows and video games. (Although Abby’s partial flashbacks of her time with her father on Fireflies, the show has been explored in the first two episodes of Season 2.) There is a key difference between the medium, though. In the game, the conversion happens immediately, immediately forcing you into Abby’s shoes and encouraging you to sympathize with her while playing. In the show, it is worth looking forward to when the switch is ridiculed. But given how long it takes for TV now – we waited for more than two years in Season 1 to 2nd Our last one – It’s very likely that we’ll never see Abby’s storyline again for two years.

Two seasons long means Our last one Asked many listeners, including the fact that we intend to wait for a character whose biggest character in the story so far killed one of the show’s beloved protagonists. The game’s perspective changes challenge players’ sense of allegiance, which is undoubtedly the goal of the show. However, part of the effectiveness of this turnaround depends on how it happens immediately. Players move on as they get the choice right away (and because they want to find out what happens to Ellie in the theater). Who would say the audience won’t fully dig out in a time of possible two years between seasons? The show is killing its own motivation even if it hopes to build it.

Our last one Season 2 should also cover Abby’s storyline.

Before season 2 aired, performance host Craig Mazin announced that it will cover only half of the events Our final second part. The announcement basically tells those who are familiar with where the season will end. But just because Cliffhanger isn’t surprising, it doesn’t mean it works in the context of the show, especially after some adaptation choices Our last one Season 2 is always produced.

Season 2 reveals immediately one of the game’s biggest questions is about to begin: Who is Abby and why did she kill Joel? In the game, we learn about her reasoning after the change, and revelation is a direct step in our journey of sympathy for her. In the show, early knowledge immediately became humane, but the series could not do anything about it. After spending a lot of time with Abby in episode 1 (especially episode 2), her absence for the rest of the season doesn’t feel like an interesting mystery, more like time stagnation until we enter season 3.

Aside from this feeling, Season 2’s peeping in the WLF’s internal operation is like the torture of Seraphite by Isaac (Jeffrey Wright), or the ultimate intrusion of WLF Seraphite Island. These are puzzles that will surely blend together in Season 3, but for the moment, none of these scenes are connected because we don’t have emotional anchors in this world. As an outsider, Ellie can’t be that anchor. It must be Abby, she is missing. Also, if the performance real Want to get us rooted in Ellie’s point of view, why should Isaac be included in the first place this season? Like Wright, his scene feels disconnected here, with no reward except for the show: “Believe us, we can land this plane.”

The thing is, I Do Mainly trust Our last one Stick to land in the coming seasons, but the subsequent conclusions are disturbing at the expense of the current season. Now, the obvious solution is to have a long season of cover Our final second part. Think about how many people there will be on this cliff swing As the mid-season finale, there were weeks waiting between episodes, not years. But, on the contrary, Our last one The prey of bigger problems in the television landscape, such as concerns about long-standing seasons and tendency to push key narratives on the road, tending to overstretch the source material.

Last time I was very upset about a season finale dragon dragonSeason 2 Finale – Another example of HBO Tentpole Show desperately needs more plot to tell the full season arc.

like Our last one,,,,, dragon dragon Season 2 ends with a cliff, screaming, “We promise next season is coming!” (Speak out. The simplest answer is that more seasons mean more money, at the cost of the quality of the show itself.

This mentality of hoarding materials is also accompanied by side effects of shorter seasons. This is ridiculous Our last oneone of the biggest shows on TV right now is the long season of seven episodes. That hardly had enough time to dig out the meat of Ellie’s arc Our final second part. By the end of the season, it felt like she had just arrived in Seattle, but we got very little from it! In fact, this shows that the most influential plot after Ellie exited from Jackson is not the time in Seattle, but the past with Joel. The entire flashback plot is full of pivotal moments that are like Ellie and Joel’s museum visits, or they have a final discussion on Joel’s porch.

In contrast, Ellie’s current pursuit of revenge has been compressed into a strange rhythm, unsatisfied journey. The disappointment in the Season 2 finale was an incredible season of Cherry, and if it had more room to fully explore its story, it would have been possible. if Our last one Learning from Season 3’s mistakes is coming, it has to stop playing time. But, as show host Craig Mazin told Collider that the series will take a fourth season to complete its narrative, I didn’t hold my breath.

Our last one Season 2 is now streaming on HBO Max.
