I watched this because I had seen Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey ( not together) in GOT and thought they were worth a watch. TLOU grew on me, slowly. DDIL3 was familiar with the game it is based on, but it was all newcto me. I'll look forward to Season 2.
I'm a fan of dystopian drama, The Handmaid's Tale, Years and Years, just binge watched La Valla, The Wall , Spanish dystopian drama set in a post WWW3 and post virus Madrid, with a dividing wall between rich and poor. Very dark, atmospheric in places, references Spanish Civil War and Fascism. Strong ( real life) mother and daughter actors playing mother and twin daughters in the drama. Worth a watch if you like this genre.
