I feel that this could be the beginning of a top series, on par with or even surpassing *The Walking Dead*, for example. But hold on-while I see many euphoric reviews, I believe the show has not yet reached a level of excellence.
The first season starts off slow but becomes more engaging as we delve deeper into this new post-apocalyptic world. I think Pedro Pascal's performance and role are excellent and are a major reason for the show's success. However, I don't feel the same about Ellie; she doesn't seem to fully capture the charisma or fit the character well.
I should mention that I know about the video game but have never played it, and I enjoy the series just the same. However, this means I can't comment on how well it was adapted.
