Really enjoyable first ep; first 30m were reasonably harrowing, but I felt another 5-10m of padded room would have benefitted the second and third acts. Scenes like where Joel and Ellie meet were a lot more enjoyable because they gave some time to establish characterization, rather than some of the rushed scenes that preceded it. Understandably I get why the showrunners didn't want to spend as much time in the QZ, but we're here for the whole first episode and what's an extra 5m runtime, y'know?
