Fallout

No too much diving into heavy drama, character drama, and all the stuff that, truth to be told, does not exist in video games overall, or more accurately said, there is no emphasis on that in video games mostly. Still, characters in Fallout show have more than solid development and arcs, often leaning or entering into drama, while kept a video game style, for this case true Fallout games style, that are still just a starting point in the first season, building for multi season series. Very similar is with the world building, that is immense, while paced to avoid being too overwhelming, considering how big the Fallout world is, and over what long time period it extends, while also is a story-telling tool, simplest example of that is the airship seen, arrived all the way from the East/North East US, with a mid-stop likely in Utah, ultimately all the way West..

In addition to massive lore and extensive source material, show on its own, same as the source material itself, doesn't make it obvious, doesn't spoon feed, and instead frames it into several layers, of which two of the most importance are surface easy going, and in depth complex below. The former mostly serves distraction by fun and enjoyment, the latter tells what actually is what..

Very dynamic show, always on the move, something is going on constantly. Things, and for that matter, lots things, are happening always, as well as the plot, sub-plots, sub-stories, story, and characters that constantly move..

Fallout is a great watch, a lot of fun and enjoyment, still not that simple, deceptively smart actually, with a flavour of satire and dark humour, so paying attention is recommendable..

Soundtrack consisting of mid-twentieth century tunes is Fallout standard, while "the score", meaning original themes made for the TV show are anything and everything from haunting to epic. Overall excellent sound, and for that matter, the show looks great too..

Filming for season 2 is finished, or just about to be..

Interested to see more..

I watched several shows and movies this year, more or less good, or not that good, some fewer than few actually very good. Somehow in all that, I missed or more like skipped, postponed Fallout, because it is hard not to be aware of the show, and aware of it, I just didn't take upon myself to watch it...

Well, better late than never, as they say, because THIS SHOW, not that much of a drama, nor overtaken by dark, depressing tone, still elements of drama, mixed with, and sometimes built on irony and sarcasm, plot heavy with more extensive character development than expected, action, and lower than lowest amount of exposition in traditional form, pointing to well written, sketched and thought out, IS AWESOME.

Fallout," the television adaptation of the iconic video game series, brings the post-apocalyptic world to life with a captivating blend of dark humor and action-packed storytelling. Set in a retro-futuristic landscape, the series cleverly explores themes of survival, morality, and humanity through its richly developed characters and intricate plotlines. The attention to detail in production design captures the essence of the game's iconic aesthetics, while the writing balances moments of levity with the gravity of dystopian challenges. Fans of the franchise as well as newcomers will appreciate its engaging narrative and dynamic performances, making "Fallout" a must-watch for those who enjoy thought-provoking science fiction.

Fully successful introduction of Fallout to TV. Pretty good show for gamers and non gamers. Has and does everything right. Action, drama, war, post apocalypse, serious joined with satire, all combined runs quite clever.

A great watch. Intrigue and fun, highly entertaining, and to extent depressingly real in some aspects.

Also those familiarized with the games will notice numerous details with admirable accuracy.
