Through the Valley

You wanted more infected !

This episode is non stop!! A dangerous blizzard hits the area. Tommy and the rest of the town are on high alert as infected have been found under the snow. Ellie and Jessie are on patrol and are seeking shelter from the storm. Abbie takes it upon herself to seek out her target, Joel and Dina are also out on patrol, they run into a new face as they are up against all odds!

This is episode is a lot of mixed emotions, firstly the action scene in the town is some of the best television I have seen in a long time, that maybe recency bias but it's awesome. The whole episode is high stakes and tension.

Abbie's section is awesome, so much infected which leads to a lot of RUNNING.

A very hard episode to talk about without spoiling as one thing leads to another, definitely one of the best episodes in the entire show so far, mind you that does NOT mean I agree with the choices made. Abbie had a dialogue in this which is good but they will NEVER make me like you !!! 9/10.

Episode 1 of Season 2 was a solid though largely sedate affair. It was clearly there to set the scene rather than move the plot forward in a big way or provide much action. With background to two sub-plots provided I expected these sub-plots to come to fruition over the remainder of the season.

Turns out we didn't have to wait long for stuff to get real.

Episode 2 is an absolute humdinger of an episode, quite the most action-packed, drama-packed episode of the show so far. No gradual buildup to a season climax, this feels like a season finale there's so much going on, and so much finality in some respects.

Such is the outcome of the episode there are a multitude of plot-lines open to the series, making the next episode very intriguing.

Note: I haven't played the game nor have any inkling of the plot, before this episode aired or from here on out, so my views are entirely based on what has happened thus far in the TV show, not on any other sources.

There are no words to describe how phenomenal the execution of this episode is.

We all knew what was coming, and it's still executed in an extraordinary, unforgettable way.

The addition of Jackson really elevates the episode beyond its potential before.

And of course... the scene.

Five years of knowing what was going to happen here and I still cried like a baby again.

Amazing!

One of the best episodes we've seen on television in recent years, and maybe ever. I wish I could watch it without knowing what would happen, and yet - it didn't take away from the intensity of the experience I had.

Greetings from Lithuania.

"Through the Valley", a second episode of LTOU season 2 was everything i hoped for it to be, and then it delivered more, way more. I played Part 2 literally 4 times, and consider it to be an absolutely incredible video game. This particular episode elevated the material even further. Won't going to go into spoilers or anything, but "Through the Valley" is by far the best episode of this series yet. VFX were incredible here, acting is top notch, editing, directing were superb. This episode also shows of just how HBO does care about this series and its content.

Overall, with only two episodes into season 2, we are already got an amazing episode. This one is going to be hard to top.

This is the second time (or maybe third) that I see a tv show episode that is 10 out of 10.

And after many, many years, this is a 10 out of 10 episode. Pure perfection!

Game of Thrones "spoils of war" and "hard home" was two perfect episodes.

Today I saw a one hour episode that was sooo good that it felt like ten minutes.

I will for sure watch this episode many times, over and over.

This was so good! Intense, drama, action...the cast is amazing....the screenplay! What a amazing job by everyone. Thank you HBO and everyone involved in this great tv show.

"Through the Walley" was pure television magic!
