Not only was it a faithful adaptation of the Playstation video game series, but it also won over casual viewers as a must-see event. Now, everyone is eagerly anticipating the return of the series for Season 2.

Here’s the synopsis for the series:
Based on the critically acclaimed video game “The Last of Us,” developed by Naughty Dog for the PlayStation® consoles, the story takes place twenty years after modern civilization has been destroyed. Joel, a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle Ellie, a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse the U.S. and depend on each other for survival.
