Where to watch The Last of Us: stream episode 7 for free

There’s a scene in the fifth season of Breaking Bad where a frustrated Jesse Pinkman (Dual‘s Aaron Paul) reaches his breaking point with Walt (Your Honor’s Bryan Cranston) and screams, “He can’t keep getting away with it.” That’s how I feel about HBO and its lineup of original Sunday night programming. How does HBO keep churning out such high-quality programs? It’s a good frustration to have, as the network’s Sunday night lineup remains full of excellent TV shows.

And 2023 is business as usual for HBO, as The Last of Us is the network’s latest hit show. In The Last of Us, the world has fallen victim to the Cordyceps infection, resulting in a deadly global pandemic. Joel (The Mandalorian’s Pedro Pascal), a smuggler in the postapocalyptic U.S., is tasked with transporting a teenage girl named Ellie (Game of Thrones’ Bella Ramsey), who may hold the key to defeating the infection. With widespread critical acclaim and massive ratings, The Last of Us is becoming one of HBO’s most popular shows of all time.
