The Last of Us (2023)

Episode three, "Long, Long Time," is the one to share. It steps away from the main journey for a love story that wins over people who swore they did not care about the end of the world, and Nick Offerman won his first Emmy for it. Even viewers who know the game tend to be surprised by where that episode goes, and the rest of the season keeps finding small, human moments between the set pieces. Check your companion's tolerance for violence first: the infected and the survivors are both brutal in places.
