Matt Roush says...

After last week’s heartbreaking flashback, the action returns to Seattle in the Season 2 finale — already? Ellie (Bella Ramsey) and Dina (Isabela Merced) have been joined by Jesse (Young Mazino) and Tommy (Gabriel Luna), trapped in a war between the Washington Liberation Front “Wolves” and the Seraphite “Scars.” What will happen if and when Ellie comes face to face with Joel’s murderer, Abby (Kaitlyn Dever)? All I can say is the wait for Season 3 is going to be excruciating. Followed by the season finale of Nathan Fielder‘s The Rehearsal (10:30/9:30c).
