The Last of Us: "Long, Long Time"
Katie and Doug from Novel Gaming bring their queer and gaming chops to this unexpected gay love story, which turns minor video game characters into protagonists of their own decades-spanning epic. We dig into all the context and discourse around this episode, Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett's performances, and why an episode criticized as "filler" actually establishes the thesis statement of the show and is arguably the most important episode of the season.
