Where Does The Last of Us Go From Here? | SWYK 029

What this episode covers

This week on Shows What You Know, we dive into the turning point of The Last of Us Season 2, plus a reality show that’s basically Squid Game for Bravo fans, and Nathan Fielder’s latest descent into comedy-as-therapy. From golf swings to plane crashes – we cover it all. 01:30 – Got to Get Out (Hulu) A trashy reality show with real Black Mirror energy? Jim breaks down Hulu’s “Got to Get Out,” a cross between Squid Game, Big Brother, and your worst group project ever. Mansion lockdown, betrayal, fake alliances, and Spencer Pratt—TV for when you wanna watch humans be goblins. 09:30 – The Rehearsal S02E01 – Nathan Fielder is back! We attempt to explain Nathan Fielder to the uninitiated. The Rehearsal is back and somehow about… aviation safety? HBO has once again handed Nathan a blank check to explore his deepest control issues and maybe improve commercial airline protocols. Is it comedy? Performance art? Cult behavior? We’re here for all of it. 25:45 – The Last of Us S2E2 “Through the Valley” (SPOILERS) This is the one. A major character arc reaches a devastating turning point in Episode 2 of The Last of Us Season 2. We dive deep into how the show handles this seismic moment, what changes from the game, and whether the Game of Thrones-style siege sequence helps soften the blow. Plus: how does the show set up Abby’s arc? Did they show too much too early? And are we really in the golden age of video game adaptations now? Let us know your thoughts on Joel, Abby, or the proper form for golf swings at [email protected] or in the comments on YouTube!
