The Last of Us season 1
Updated: 12/10/2025, 5:13:23 PM Wikipedia source
The first season of the American post-apocalyptic drama television series The Last of Us was originally broadcast on HBO between January and March 2023. Based on the video game franchise developed by Naughty Dog, the series is set twenty years into a pandemic caused by a mass fungal infection, which causes its hosts to transform into zombie-like creatures and collapses society. The first season, based on the 2013 game The Last of Us, follows Joel (Pedro Pascal), a smuggler tasked with escorting the immune teenager Ellie (Bella Ramsey) across a post-apocalyptic United States. Guest stars include Nico Parker as Joel's daughter Sarah, Merle Dandridge as resistance leader Marlene, Anna Torv as Joel's partner Tess, Gabriel Luna as Joel's brother Tommy, Lamar Johnson and Keivonn Montreal Woodard as brothers Henry and Sam, and Melanie Lynskey and Jeffrey Pierce as resistance leader Kathleen and her second-in-command Perry. One of the most expensive television series, the season was filmed in Alberta from July 2021 to June 2022. Neil Druckmann, who wrote and co-directed the games, assisted Craig Mazin with scriptwriting the season's nine episodes. The score was composed by Gustavo Santaolalla, who composed for the games, and David Fleming. The Last of Us received acclaim from critics, who praised the performances, writing, production design, and score; several called it the best adaptation of a video game. It was nominated for several awards, including 24 Primetime Emmy Awards and three Golden Globe Awards. Across linear channels and HBO Max, the series premiere was watched by 4.7 million viewers on the first day—the second-biggest for HBO since 2010—and almost 40 million within two months; by May, the series averaged almost 32 million viewers per episode, and became HBO's most watched debut season.

Two days before the global outbreak, Ratna, a mycologist in Jakarta, Indonesia, analyzes an infected corpse. She reveals that there is no cure and advises military bombings to contain the infection. In the present, Ellie explains to Joel and Tess that her immunity is the key to a cure, which the Fireflies hope to synthesize in a laboratory out west. The path to the State House is blocked by an infected horde, so they cut through a museum, where they are attacked by blind infected known as "clickers". Ellie is bitten but shows no symptoms, proving her immunity. They arrive at the State House but the Firefly squadron is dead. Tess reveals she was bitten and, as her dying wish, implores Joel to finish Ellie's mission. As the infected horde swarms the State House, Tess stays behind to destroy it while Joel leads Ellie to safety.

In a flashback, Ellie remembers her best friend Riley, who left FEDRA school to join the Fireflies. Riley returns to visit Ellie for the night and takes her to an abandoned mall, where they explore a carousel, a photo booth, and an arcade. Riley tells Ellie that she is leaving the next day to take a Firefly post in Atlanta. Ellie is distraught but convinces Riley to stay, and they kiss. A dormant infected suddenly attacks. Ellie kills it, but they are both bitten during the struggle. Tearfully, they decide to stay together and make the most of their time. In the present, Ellie decides to stay with Joel and finds a sewing needle to stitch his wound. | |||||||

| Ellie goes hunting to secure food for her and Joel. While tracking a deer, she meets a preacher, David, and his deputy James. Ellie trades her deer for penicillin to treat Joel's wound, which has become infected. David reveals the raider Joel killed was a member of his group. He lets Ellie go, but follows her with his team to seek revenge on Joel. Ellie flees to draw them away, but David captures her and reveals he has turned to cannibalism to feed his group. Meanwhile, Joel awakens and tortures some of David's men to locate Ellie. She kills James, but David hunts her down and tries to rape her. Ellie kills David with a meat cleaver and escapes, traumatized. Joel finds Ellie and hugs her, calling her "baby girl". | |||||||

| In a flashback, Ellie's mother Anna is bitten by an infected while giving birth to Ellie. Marlene finds Anna and, at her request, kills her and brings Ellie to safety. In the present, Joel and Ellie have reached Salt Lake City, Utah. Joel tries to persuade Ellie to abandon the cure mission, but she insists on finishing it. He shares his suicide attempt after Sarah's death and credits Ellie for healing his trauma. Firefly soldiers capture them and bring them to the hospital. Joel awakens to Marlene, who explains that the head doctor is preparing Ellie for surgery to synthesize a cure. When Joel learns the procedure will be fatal, he goes on a brutal rampage, slaughtering the Fireflies and their head doctor to rescue Ellie. Marlene intercepts Joel and begs him to let them do the surgery, but Joel kills her. When Ellie wakes, Joel lies that the Fireflies had already failed to develop a cure from other immune patients. At Ellie's demand, Joel swears that this story is true. Ellie replies "Okay". | |||||||
