The Last of Us season 1 episode 1 live stream: Watch online

The series premiere of The Last of Us has almost arrived! Here’s how you can watch the first episode of the first season. 

The Last of Us was one of the most popular video games ever made. Adapting it into a TV series quickly was a brilliant move, especially since the story is one of the greatest of all time.

It helps that it follows two iconic characters. Joel (played by Pedro Pascal) is a complicated character that viewers are going to love and sometimes detest. Ellie (Bella Ramsey) is going to be a fan favorite. Her sarcasm in the middle of an apocalypse will entertain everyone. Together, they’re going to make this a must watch show. Especially when things get serious and emotional.

If the first episode of The Last of Us follows the game’s example, get ready for chaos, violence, and sadness. After everything that happens to some of the characters involved, you won’t be shocked that some of them have become angry and distant.

Hopefully, the TV series follows the game’s story. There’s no need to change too much. Everything is right there.
