Total run time of this entire season of LOU is the same run time as lord of the rings: the fellowship of the ring extended version lolol
It's not just a straight-up hours game though. You can't just put it all together and claim it's one thing. There's a flow to these things. Individual episodes need to have their own arcs. Each episode has to tell its own story. Or at least a coherent piece of the story. I mean you can't just chop a movie up into pieces and call it a good television show. It wouldn't work. So pure hours don't actually mean much.
I’m well aware of this. But the pacing of the last of us seasons feel like a sprint to the finish.
