Look, I too was bitter about Joel when I played the 2nd game. I was unsure of the 2nd game. But I've now played it many times. I like how you feel conflicted on who to cheer for. As for the show. I think when season 3 comes out season 2 will make more sense and feel more complete. Season 2 is really good. Not as good as Season 1, but to just shit on a whole season because you're sad about Pedro is lame. To shit on a show because you're butt hurt the characters aren't exact replicas of the game is also lame. Give it a 2nd watch!
