    I enjoyed ep 3, gave us a different story instead of non stop infected people attacking and being shot.

    Did you enjoy it?

      Do I need to have played the game to watch the show? Seeing a lot of hype for it.

            Yes and no. It's nice to get glimpses of backstory but I kind of felt that backstory just went for too long and ate up too much of the episode.

            But it's a solid show overall. I'm happy to keep watching.

              Good show. Slow burns for a bit but the end of the season is pretty good.

              Just finished both seasons of Slow Horses. Thought it was pretty good, I get pretty nitpicky and it had some bits in the first two eps i was worried about but it was pretty good from there on out and was like funner less serious Line of Duty while not hitting the same heights.
              I should leave it alone but you're not right

                Happy Days vs. Happy Days live from The Nets is the next show I want to see. Which Happy Days will win?

                The unhappy one with a sense of humour, or the happy one without a sense of humour? Tantalising......

                  Would probably play out something like this:

                    I thought it was good also. It did go on a tad too long making it irrelevant to their mission but it was emotional and well done.
                    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                      Yes it did take up the whole hour and maybe a little long.

                      Do you watch it on Foxtel/Binge or other?

                      I have a subscription to HBO and in all their series they produce they have a bit at the end discussing the episode with the director/writer and some of the actors. This was the same for GOT, White Lotus and other shows they have made.

                      In EP3, they mentioned they deviated from the video game storyline.

                        There are some behind the scenes features on Foxtel as well but I haven't watched them.

                        Thought the episode was fantastic. I gave up on the walking dead after a few seasons so I'm glad it's not just non stop zombie killing. Whenever someone argues against pride rounds and the like you realise why they are required when you read online comments about this episode 3 and see how intolerant and ignorant so many people still are.

                        I haven't played the game but read about Bill and Frank and watched a cut scene from the game and it's nothing like the show.

                          I'm watching it on Binge so don't have access to additional content.

                            You know the actor who played Frank don't you? Australian actor Murray Bartlett who played the manager in Season one of White Lotus

                              Just watched e3 and thought it was a great bit of TV. It was a bit long possibly, but I didn't find myself feeling bored.

                                It's getting the media hype. One of the greatest episodes of TV ever apparently. I haven't watched it yet, however I feel pressured to love it.
                                I'm actually playing TLOU 2 at the moment. FMD, it's scary as, and insanely violent.... I may have yelled in a very high pitched voice in one part.
