Fallout

First of all, just to be clear. When I played through Fallout 2 on PC in the late '90s, I fell in love with RPG games. I always dreamed that one day Fallout would be turned into a movie directed by Spielberg, because I loved his sci-fi films. It doesn't matter that it never happened - the series gave me exactly what I always wanted: a fantastically rich and beautifully ugly post-apocalyptic world. The creators of the show truly understood this world with care and depth, and the result is amazing. The best video game adaptation in the history of cinema. I'm really looking forward to season two. Christmas is going to be hot.

Surprisingly good and well made show. It looks like well thought out and planned too.

Characters have depth, stories and back stories, acting is good, production value is high. Accuracy to the world of Fallout is immaculate. The world of Fallout is being introduced to TV quite well, and the story is slowly expanding. Occasionaly overly intricate, while the good side of that, is that following seasons will continue on story-rich.

Use of practical props and amount those made for the show is admirable.

Show as a whole with no major flaws, can be upgraded to even higher levels.

Great world building that is quite extensive, while also just a fraction of it all. Visual elements that have world-building purpose, also have story-telling purpose. Daytime or nightime, the ocean, the sun, and various other details combined, that aren't all easy to notice immediately, all have the same purpose, and that joined with how initially presented is developed finally, and also quite ammount of memorable, and some epic moments, as well as action, drama and satire, makes Fallout of those shows with quite high rewatch value.

Top notch TV and excellent adaptation. Season two coming....

Actually only thing that it doesn't have are your good guys and the bad guys. Motivations, goals, intentions, events, are left rather ambiguous or open to interpretation, thus people can see what people want to see, and one can only combine that with previous knowledge of Fallout, then to realize how overarching story has much more depth than it would appear..

Other than that, on the surface, where the show is much fun and also distracting, has pip boys, stimpacks, junk jets, unreliable narrators, several factions are introduced or slightly introduced, some hinted yet to be.., shortly said, has everything..

With all that, and with just a little bit effort and luck, season 2 will be another banger..

Ouality tv, genuine and true adaptation that expands the world. Very well done, and Well Done!

Everything is as should be. Characters we "meet" are exactly as those we encounter in games. Feels like Fallout, and looks, sounds and performs like high quality show. Amazing stuff.

Plot, story, side stories, etc, all spot on.

Athough as first season is setting for a longer series, overarching main story, doesn't rush to explain itself, and instead relies on steady build-up combined with some knowledge of the source material, can occasionally be a slight problem for some. Other than that, no major issues with Fallout TV Show.
