The Last of Us Season 2 is just as moving as its predecessor, but it's also infinitely more frustrating.

The series co-creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann have crafted a stirring post-apocalyptic tale.

Season 2 picks up five years after the Season 1 finale, when Joel wiped out the Fireflies in Salt Lake City in order to save Ellie 's life.

The Last of Us Season 2 premieres April 13 at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and Max . It's just one half of a great story — is that enough? The season 's strange pacing also comes as a result of its length: Seven episodes simply isn't enough for one of TV's biggest shows.
