THE LAST OF US 1x3 REACTION!! ~ ''Long, Long Time'' | Spoiler Review 

Honestly if this was just a one hour short film it would of definitely been nominated for an Oscar!

Small detail, Franks gun - the one that Ellie takes - is a Berretta model 70, the same model that Joel gives to Ellie in the first game.

This episode hit me really, really hard. It's been a long time since an episode of any TV show has made me that emotional. The acting from Murray Bartlett and Nick Offerman is absolutely top tier. Their love story was beautiful and I love that they got to go out on their own terms - something not afforded to many in a post-apocalyptic world.

I’ve been watching reactors cry to this episode for 2 days. I’m sick of crying 😭 lol

Murray Bartlett's acting when Frank couldn't open the bag of pills was what made me start crying, after that my eyes were waterfalls for the rest of the episode

Bill knows how to survive, but Frank taught him how to live. The episode is a nudge that sometimes you need to get out of your comfort zone and take a chance, because that leap of faith may change your life.

A masterpiece of an episode from start to finish. The acting, the dialogue, the pacing, the music, the cinematography, perfection. I am absolutely blown away by what they have achieved in this show so far. I knew when Druckmann himself was going to be heavily involved in the adaptation that it was going to be good.... But this is on another level. Wow, just wow 😮

Hey Calypso they got me with this episode. I am a grown man, why am I crying like a baby, I guess we all yearn for that satisfying complete love between two wandering souls. To see how their relationship and love grew and blossomed. --------- What great writing and directing. THis is up there with the, "Kiksuya" eposide from "Westworld". ------ Wow, let me wipe the tears one more time.

This was probably one of the best episodes of television I've seen in a very long time. I laughed, teared up from the cuteness of Bill and Frank...and then ugly cried...Hard.

Thank you for taking the time to pay respects to Annie in her recent passing. What a sweet touch. 💗

Thanks for showing Annie Wersching some love before the reaction started, Aish. I loved her in "The Vampire Diaries" and have been eagerly looking forward to each of her appearances in "The Rookie" but, of course, it's much more heartbreaking that her family and friends have lost her.

I think this is the best single episode of television I've ever seen. NIck Offerman and Murray Bartlett better win an Emmy for this acting job. Loved the little tribute to Annie Wersching. Just another great example of how art can move all of us emotionally.

you can tell joel was a father the way he is trying to protect ellie by saying no to her having a gun and trying to save her from seeing the mass grave. i also enjoy the changes to the games timeline to include more story and background i think it really helps especially for those people who have not played the game.

The beauty of this episode is that it subverts our expectations. We've all been conditioned to fear everything, especially the familial, especially in modern storytelling, so when we encounter a story about love and trust and commitment, we don't know how to process it. This is one of the best stories ever told on film.

Your face was a picture you realised that Bill had spiked the wine bottle. I could actually see the penny drop. priceless❤ The episode was an experience that will live long in the memory.

While I usually don't like it when they make changes to the story like this I can say that I approve of this change because the game's version of Bill just survived the apocalypse whereas this version conquered and defied the apocalypse

I was just a puddle of emotions watching this episode. Equal parts devastating and beautiful - reminds me of the San Junipero episode of Black Mirror. Just a self-contained, fantastically written, phenomenally acted (Nick Offerman was perfectly cast, but Murray Bartlett kinda blew my mind, especially near the end of the episode) episode of television. And it gave us more Tess! We can never have enough Ana Torv

I was so excited for this episode because it seemed it was going to be the biggest divergence from the game because Joel never met Frank in the game but we knew from episode one that he and Tess know him. But I was not expecting this little masterpiece. SPOILERS>>>>>> Bills town had some of the most memorable moments in the game: The upside-down booby trap, your first encounter with a Bloater, compression starting the truck while under attack, the "Bye bye, Dude!" moment in the truck, and of course finding Frank's body and the note. But the point of Bill was to contrast how a serious survivalist acts compared to Joel the player. Bill will die alone and it's kind of sad and we don't really want that for Joel ultimately. It's subtle like all of Naughty Dog's storytelling but it's there on reflection. Compare to what they did in the show Bill and Frank are also there to contrast with Joel but in this case to show that a happy life could happen in the end times. Also, Bill's note basically echoes what Tess said to Joel about "save who you can save", and it's clear how they are setting up Joel's character.

The pile of stones at the beginning of the episode is called a cairn … used as a marker or burial memorial.

You have the best reaction to this MASTERPIECE. A couple reactors I follow didn't cry. I honestly have to wonder if they are human. I can't trust them anymore, LOL! This was an emotional avalanche. The performances, writing, directing, everything--genius.

Damn Aishwarya, you got me using more tissues during this reaction than the actual show. Great and emotional reaction! I subscribed to you 😉 By the way, I love the game. It's my favorite game of all time.

Annie Wersching dying is still a complete shock. I still can’t believe that happened. I was already a fan of her after I saw her in the show 24 and after I played The Last of Us, I became a much bigger fan. She was a great actress, and seemed awesome and caring. R.I.P. to her, she will be missed.

There is a 2h long director's cut of this episode, cut down to the actual length. There are rumors they may release it full at the end of the season as an extra, if the show does well. I would very much like so.

This story is as uplifting as it is heartbreaking. ❤❤❤

me when they first meet: yaaaassss daddies!!! me towards the end: *me hyperventilating from heartache and bawling my eyes out

Incredible addition to the story. 😭

I was pretty much just like you I cried through the entire episode Bill and Frank were so sweet and amazing I couldn’t handle it!!!!

Also, worth noting, the timeline of this series means we can assume Bill and Frank survived through the AIDS crisis. Just in case you need more symbolism about pandemics, violence towards people who are different, time being an enemy and also a healing force, and love overcoming the dread of nature taking its course.

Ellie shows us her love for astronomy. The car was a spaceship and in episode 2 it was the crater of a bomb impact that she compared to the moon. When she said "so cool" to the seat belt, it sounded exactly like her "so cool" when she sat in the space capsule in Part 2. The moment Joel changed his perspective in the game and in the series was the moment he met Bill. The fundamental difference between game and series is that Bill's advice was driven by a negative thought in the series and a positive one in the series.

Such a beautifully written episode a lot of tears man i didn't think Nick Offerman had this performance in him And it's so cool how the show is sticking so close to the source material because in the game we knew Bill and Frank were a gay couple but we never got to see their backstory and i someone who has played the game multiple times and love the story more than anything i appreciate how the show really fleshed out their story it was truly amazing to watch

Such a beautiful episode - I love how they changed the purpose of Bill's story in the show from the game. Cried the whole way through tho D:

Heartbreaking!! Haven't cried like that in a long time 😪

This episode convinced me that this show was going to be good. I had reservations up to this point, skeptical because of the state of video game adaptations in film, but holy hell they did so good. Big respect to Annie Wersching, much love to her family.

I love how she knows how the game is and she knows how it is diffrent from the tv series....and she still love the different interpretation the show has

Bill's giggle at the taste of a strawberry after over 10 years is so precious

First, of all the memorable comments made to this episode, I believe: "Frank, you're as ballzy as the next door infected." ...is unique... and I loved it. More than that though I really love the deep emotional appreciation shown here for the Bill and Frank story. - I do want to make an observation about the game references. I disagree with the premise that the show is subordinate to any... anything. I'm a 64-year-old technical professional who never found any affinity for video games and was totally unaware of TLOU as a game before the TV series dropped. I absolutely LOVE this TV SERIES! IMHO, the story presented, the production, the acting, but primarily the extraordinary writing positions this as one of the best TV series of the last 10 years! This series is brilliant when you don't know the game play ahead of time.

Someone who wept as much as I did! What an absolutely amazing episode.

Bill must have come across at least one person in the first four years to have that tester. I loved your reaction, thank you.

Such an emotional episode... Annie Wersching rest in peace 😔😢

"Ten miles west of Boston", with the Rockies in the distance....

Your reaction is gorgeous. Your emotion!!!. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for your reaction! I also appreciate your commemoration of Annie Wersching's passing. I first saw her in an episode of STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE (2002)... and most recently as the 'Borg Queen' in season 2 of STAR TREK: PICARD. She was a true talent... gone too soon. ❧ As for Episode 3 of THE LAST OF US, it struck me as the best of the best. How rare to see such profound love story amidst chaos and danger? 💎 #IndianCalypso #TheLastOfUs #TLOU #TheLastOfUsHBO

22:35 “you’re ballsy as the next door infected, MY GOD” HAHAHAH I love us Indians man

what i find most interesting to think about is bill probably would never have had as happy a life as he had with frank if the apocalypse hadnt happened! thats the irony...he was so prickly and introverted and basically didnt trust or socialise with anyone clearly during pre outbreak - thats very clear....so for bill not only was the outbreak his prepper dream come true, but it also let him open up to love and live his best life out with someone he loved deeply - perfect in every way, you could not make this episode better and i hate every person who is rating it 1 star as it is clearly their homophobic fears shining through that they cant get over (if it had been a man and woman they probably would have rated it a 5 star) gah people eh....this to me should win every award possible this year - and its only january!!!!!

It was a masterpiece. That's all that can be said. The acting was out of this world. These 2 guys moved everyone within an hour. Mind boggling. Loved it!!!

Nick Offerman does a role of a life time bit so does Murray Bartlett if they dont get an Emmy im suprisesed!

41:48 Joel is wearing Frank’s shirt, from the argument scene.

Such legendary acting to convince us of that kind of love in such a short time...and I've never seen a RU-vidr with more passion than u beautiful

Love how these smaller reaction channels show so much of the episode.

Your passion and enthusiasm for this show is inspiring. Thank you.

i really enjoy this reaction of yours. i loved seeing how passionate you are about the game and now the show since you know these characters for so long. its such a delight! im so excited to see you react to future episodes too

The only difference between game and show Bill and Frank is what they do at that fight outside when Frank wants to have friends. They both open themselves a bit, and compromise. Bill lets him at least make a friend, see more of the city. Frank accepts that that can only be it, too dangerous to go further, invite more people. And in the surrendering to each others way of loving, they found the difference between surviving and living. In the game Bill says no, absolutely not. Frank feels imprisoned, grows resent, and eventually they fight and he leaves, gets bitten, and hangs himself to prevent himself from turning. Leaving an angry letter to Frank, which when Frank sees he swallows his tears and says, "well then fuck him". Leading Bill to a cold lonely empty life left where he's bitter and grumpy. In the game Bill's actions serve to show Joel the danger of what he can become if he doesn't open up, if he doesn't look for living instead of just surviving. In the show Bill and Frank become an example of what he could have if he opens up. He already missed his chance with Tess, but maybe he can be a father again to Ellie. It's the main theme of The Last of Us. Surviving vs Living. Bill and Frank gave the same lesson, just the opposite side of the same coin. Bill taught Frank how to survive, Frank taught Bill how to live.

oh my god, I've watched so many reactions of this episode and yours is my favorite, hands down

They are really setting up the end of this season to be like The Punisher prison fight 😆

Aww you guys didn't know annie died. Never played this game but she was fantastic in 24. Also tvd! 🙏

What a beautiful reaction .. you are a true empath dear lady. Subscribed. 😇

What a reaction and what an episode! Beautiful!

thank you for your reaction , and already 152 times I am emotional when watching

It’s so fun watching another TLOU fan geeking out over specific moments of the show ❤. Thanks for your reactions fellow fan!

If I'm being honest, the first time I cried in this episode was "use them to keep Tess safe". The story is beautiful, incredibly well told and acted, but I could feel Nick Offerman's straightness, I couldn't say exactly what it was about his acting, it just drew me out a little bit. It could just be that I knew he was straight before-hand, but then I didn't know anything about Murray Bartlett beforehand and I didn't get that same feeling from Frank. I wish I could have had the same emotional response most people seemed to get from this episode

Thank you for taking the time to pay respect to Annie Wersching

Love the reaction 😊 greetings from Sweden

Great reaction video. I love how the episode touched you're heart. New sub for sure.....

A really phenomenal reaction!🌺🌿☘️🌸🌷

What a touching tribute. RIP

I literally can’t 😭😭 my reactions are exactly like yours when I see the crazy similarities 😭

From a certain point of view, Billy and Frank won the apocalypse. They got to live their lives with people they loved, they weren't overrun by infected or raiders. They didn't have to live under authoritarian rule, nor struggle as Freedom Fighters. After 20 long, fulfilled years, they went out on their own terms.

Awesome reaction ~♥️

Great musical score too.

You know what I love about you? It is your sweet kind soul ❤

Congratulations. I've watched a dozen reactions to this since it aired, and you've cried the hardest. If I knew where you lived, I'd send you one of the two bottles of Louis Jadot Beaujolais I bought for consolation.

Instant sub, loved the reaction

This was one of the best episodes of TV I've ever seen.

RU-vid has been recommending me so much fungus information that I'm very convinced they are aliens. They are so weird and incredible.

This is so good... And I'm waiting for Avatar too.. Aisuu

Ngl, this episode will be hard to watch for many people. To show Bill and Franks relationship in such detail was brave.

This was awesome

nice reactions , thanks

You were all of us while watching this

It's OK. We all ugly-cried too.

Love the details such as: Frank showed a whole pack of what I think of as (probably) sleeping pills, but then Bill put only like a half or probably less of the ground powder into Frank's glass, which sparked the question "Will it be enough?", of which later Bill explained that the ones they both drank from the wine bottle was already enough to kill a horse. It means that Frank probably drank enough to kill an elephant. Make sense that Bill probably stayed up longer than Frank to write the will/letter for Joel.

dig the emotion 💫

Frank, you ballys as the next door neighbor whose infected! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Big 👍for you!!!

Good thing the cordyceps don't spread via tears or we'd all be getting re-infected repeatedly throughout this series!

Pehli baar life mei kisi indian ladki ko dekh rhe who actually loves & respects video games and that too a game like The last of us, Neil Druckman really is a genius.

23:10 lol, frank you are ballsy as the next door infected?!😂

Love you girl you are the best

❤❤

I wonder what kinda job Bill had to afford everything and to trick out his house like that

❤

❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

❤️❤️👍

... when your mail came, I thought it was a clicker... 😳

Min 11:39 I didn't know that You can be an opera singer.:))

Am I the only one who is watching this reaction and has the audio not syncing with the video?

Indian Calypso... you are a mess... you didn't cry this much after the Red Wedding...

My partner (the one with a mighty beard, I am polyamourous) and I (a trans girl) have decided that Long long time is our song for eternity.

the title of the episode is 3 not 2, fix this

CLICKITY CLACK WATCH YOUR BACK
