They're identical shows, stop being dramatic.
- Joel and Ellie are basically just the police guy and that other one but with more words said to one another, and more things happening between them, and then changing over time. But other than that, identical.
- Marlene, Bill, Frank, Tess etc use words and actions to explain what type of person they are, which is identical to characters in TWD who use things like cowboy hats or samurai swords to show the same thing.
- Any time an infected in TLOU attacks someone it always gets at least one bite in. In the clicker episode each of them got a bite on one of our heroes, the single infected in Episode 7 bagged two victims. That's literally the same as TWD where for every thousand zombies at least one person gets a fright and barely makes it out of the situation unharmed. The point is that monsters are scary, yo.
- The characters in TWD are so diverse that TLOU wishes it could be as good. TWD has the kung-fu Jesus guy and the guy with a spiked ball for an arm who would have totally kissed if they had more than three hundred chances to kiss. Early seasons managed to have two black guys on screen at the same time, although that obviously meant that the older black guy would need to die at some point soon. They had lesbians. I mentioned the cowboy hats and samurai swords earlier but what about the one with the punky purple hair and pilot goggles, or the guy who had an eye patch? You might say that the writers of TWD were just replacing personalities with props because they couldn't develop a character to save themselves, to which I say "COOORALLL CORAL YER MAW CORRAAAAALLLLL sad face everyone's sad now".
