We should all be so lucky to have 16 years with someone we love. The story reminds me of my parents and watching them care for each other, and knowing/ hoping that my husband and I will one day take care of each other as we get older. It is heartbreaking but also such a blessing
I appreciate you putting it that way. My husband (Frank to my bill) died on our 15th anniversary and I struggled with anger and feeling as if I’d been robbed of our growing old(er) together. It took me a long while to realize just how incredibly lucky I was to have had those 15 years with him, the happiest I’d ever been.
They did the transition from the mass grave to Bill's house after Joel said that FEDRA swept the outer towns about a week after the outbreak. That's why the houses were still in such good shape. Bill's house was his family house. He most likely lived in it his entire life. In the beginning you can see it was probably decorated by Bill's mother and he never changed anything. Later, after Frank's arrival, you can notice new, more vibrant colors and Frank's paintings on the walls.
We were confused by the flawless antiques in the sprawling house. Didn’t fit with the weird basement prepper vibes. Once Bill said the classical piano music was his mother’s the house made a lot more sense.
This was the episode that that broke me and finally got me to cry. Two middle aged men growing old, finding purpose again in a world so divided and ill-advised on tearing itself apart and actually being able to die in peace as everything crumbles around them. A tsunami of tears left me by then.
How is Bill still alive after four years by himself? It's a superpower of introverts! We spend our entire lives shutting ourselves off from the world. Four years alone with all my various projects? Don't threaten me with a good time lol
You two really are my favorite reactors. It's the little things for me, like (trying to say this without spoilers) I think you two are the first of 20+ reactors I've seen who didn't seem confused at THAT SCENE where the camera is pulled back real far from the front porch and then cuts closer in for the reveal. You got it right away. I respect that.
A bit late here, but regarding the "unlimited" wine supply, then he did not only have his own large wine collection in the basement, but the town also had a wine store, and being it's only "customer", the wine from this store and it's storage should last for many years.
If the two of you keep thinking and saying the same thing at the same time, I'm going to have to start persistently asking when the two of you are giving me grandchildren.
Nice reaction! But Jessa don't be so hard on it picking it apart! Bill had all that wine because it showed him raiding the wine store, and as for "power washing" the house, they made a point of Frank using paint to keep the place looking nice because it was important to him.
All that nervous energy and banter until, Ron Swanson SINGS... then that beautiful silence and admiration... and FINALLY these two get this! After, the reaction was more subdued and truly wonderful... until Jessa comes up with the pressure washer comment (hehehehe). Great react!
The music person for this ep committed a war crime using Max Richter's "On The Nature of Daylight" for that scene. Like, yes, it fits perfectly, thematically, but goddamnit it's distinctly illegal to bring up my Arrival emotions and give me an ol' one-two like this. Would love to see an Arrival reaction, that movie deserves more love on TH-cam.
Great reaction as always! Such a wonderful episode. :) Also, tiny detail: when we first see Bill coming out of his basement, I think it's only been a few days since the initial outbreak - that's why his house and lawn still look so well-maintained.
I believe the date showed it was the monday after the infection began, so there had literally only been the weekend, and his town probably hadn't even been hit by the infection yet given that people were calmly standing around being shuffled onto the death buses.
Bill came out of his house pretty much the day his town was quarantined, which was within the week after the infection began, so his town had no reason to be completely overrun.
if people would stop saying things like "this episode is going to WHATEVER EMOTIONAL RESPONSE" it would be great. that is a spoiler. let people watching things the same way we all got to.
I love Frank's line about "older means we're still here", especially when you consider that these are two gay men who would have come of age right at the start of the AIDS pandemic. Also, _Shrek_ came out in 2001, so they definitely could have seen it; they just wouldn't have seen any of the sequels (meaning no Puss In Boots)
"A break", what break? That's the norm here! 😂 But seriously though, this story is much closer to Station Eleven and Y: The Last Man than to stuff like The Walking Dead.
This channel is really great. But.. I'm sorry, I know A LOT happened in this episode and in this reaction... but I saw that cute dog in the first 2 minutes and that was all I could think about! Lol
Your comedic response to sad scenes makes me hope you'll react to more tear jerkers. Maybe something like The Notebook, Arrival, Interstellar, or Room?
Sad moment when you realize the world "ended" RIGHT before Massachusetts even legalized gay marriage. So in Bill's world, there was never all this gay progress we've made the last 20 years. He really thought "this was it", and marriage while gay was so foreign to them that they didn't even truly consider until their last day.
What kind of odd feedback is that? Do you think they will change their ways just because you pointed it out? "Oh golly... thanks Sellinga, we'll be less snarky just for you..." If you don't like some reactors, wipe your nose, move on, and shut up about it.
Wait what? As a gay middle aged man, I felt no "snark" towards an episode that was great representation for us... They just joke or laugh as a defense mechanism, and that's fine, everyone reacts to emotional moments differently. If anything they wont me over as a sub!
@@Quotenwagnerianer It's a fair criticism that someone might have and not all around here share. They tried to apologize at one point for their snark, and i thought, "well, but that's what I'm here for, please don't stop" They will hopefully not change, but I think it's absolutely fair to state to reactors what you don't like about them. In a fairly polite way of course.

@@fxbear Yes, you are very lucky. But it is always hard to be a survivor...
"How did he afford this home?" It was 2003. 'Nuff said.
😭😭
Even more so it was his moms. ;)

The vulnerability that Nick Offerman brought to the role was soo real
“People who prep like this don’t have friends.”
I take offense to this, I’ll have you know I’m friends with all 4 of the voices in my head.
Damn, I didn't spot the symbolism of Bill watering the near-dead flowers until you guys made the joke. Nice. And ouch.

Such great acting to convince us of that much love in just one episode
"Ain't you ever seen a Horror movie, kid?"
No...Her whole life is a Horror movie. :)
You two really are my favorite reactors.

6:55 I loved how Joel realized "she's been quiet too long". Every parent or babysitter has been there. 😂

Love when we get to see you two together! We love friends who cry together!
popped in on this channel occasionally and am curious that these kind-eyed peeps are recording in person together now :)
Nice reaction! But Jessa don't be so hard on it picking it apart! Bill had all that wine because it showed him raiding the wine store, and as for "power washing" the house, they made a point of Frank using paint to keep the place looking nice because it was important to him.

Great reaction guys. When I tear up watching a reaction to an episode I've already seen, I know a sincere reaction had something to do with it.
I would be so down for an Arrival video from you guys.
‘U gotta eat mushrooms to show them who’s boss’ lol
Bill came out of his house pretty much the day his town was quarantined, which was within the week after the infection began, so his town had no reason to be completely overrun.
I didn't have any knowledge of Nick before this. It isn't necessary to understanding the character.
if people would stop saying things like "this episode is going to WHATEVER EMOTIONAL RESPONSE" it would be great. that is a spoiler. let people watching things the same way we all got to.
I’m all caught up and I honestly think this is the best episode
Shrek came out in 2001, so perhaps that person meant Shrek 2.
Best channel to sub to!!! Fresh reactions from two really funny and natural reactors!
intro thing started with GOT than westworld tho. Still, great reaction!
I love Frank's line about "older means we're still here", especially when you consider that these are two gay men who would have come of age right at the start of the AIDS pandemic.

You guys make me laugh so much, thanks! 😁
Oh god I have been on pins and needles for your reaction to this one!
We were not ready either! It Felt Like a Kick in the Groin!
"A break", what break? That's the norm here! 😂
But seriously though, this story is much closer to Station Eleven and Y: The Last Man than to stuff like The Walking Dead.
I couldnt believe i didnt recognize murray bartlett from white lotus…prob the hair.
And they were singing my my this here Anakin guy
Oh i didn't see you started this, rad!
EDIT: Arrival is also great!
Im sorry. Girlie-Pop McGee? That's my favorite anime
The writing is incredible.
Definitely the reaction we wanted
I've been waiting for this one!
Such a beautiful tale of finding love amidst chaos. 💎 Thanks, Jessa! Thanks, Alex! #JessaAndAlexWatch #TheLastOfUs #TLOU #TheLastOfUsHBO
Neil Druckmann (show creator) said this was the happy episode
They also never got to see Return of the King
Oh daaamn! That’s the real tragedy!
Your right. Just missed it by 7 months.
16 years
This channel is really great. But.. I'm sorry, I know A LOT happened in this episode and in this reaction... but I saw that cute dog in the first 2 minutes and that was all I could think about! Lol
PUPPY!!!
“Ain’t you ever seen a horror movie, kid?” Actually, probably not (as a subset of all movies). Still a dumb move though. lol
Ya, how did they lift all those cars lol….and where were the cars when the raiders came??
Your comedic response to sad scenes makes me hope you'll react to more tear jerkers. Maybe something like The Notebook, Arrival, Interstellar, or Room?
Arrival is definitely on our list. I love the idea of doing a tearjerker month if tv ever gives us a second to breathe again!
Sad moment when you realize the world "ended" RIGHT before Massachusetts even legalized gay marriage. So in Bill's world, there was never all this gay progress we've made the last 20 years. He really thought "this was it", and marriage while gay was so foreign to them that they didn't even truly consider until their last day.
Damn
you are look like riley
can you react to the mandalorian season 3 please
ALS disease.
You come across rather snarky and almost pissed off at the show, Alex especially. Not exactly a fun reaction to watch. Sorry but truth.
I was really looking forward to their reaction, too
What kind of odd feedback is that?
Do you think they will change their ways just because you pointed it out? "Oh golly... thanks Sellinga, we'll be less snarky just for you..."
If you don't like some reactors, wipe your nose, move on, and shut up about it.
I don't get it. They clearly appreciated the episode and were very moved by it, despite finding certain aspects amusing.
