Fallout

The test of a good TV series is how much you want to watch the next episode after the previous one has finished. Fallout absolutely passes this test, with me wanting to immediately move to the next episode every time.

The first couple of episodes are quite full of exposition and world building, but once the setting is done, the episodes are uniformly excellent.

The story had four main threads; Lucy (the naïve but plucky girl from a vault), Maximus (the idealistic Brotherhood of Steel grunt), Cooper (a ghoul) and Cooper (in flashback, a Hollywood star). The world has a different history to ours; 1950s tech is more advanced, but with the same aesthetics. And the bomb dropped then as well.

The writing builds both character and tension, slowly weaving mystery and reveals, with frequent dark humour and genuine heart. All the characters feel real, despite their bizarre and post-apocalyptic setting, and they all merit empathy.

Roll on season 2!

Immaculate adaptation. Looks and feels and sounds like the games, also "behaves" like the games too.

Obviously, as it is a TV show, TV stuff was added and mixed with it, while all without losing the games vibe, and with TV stuff being pretty good, and well made too. Almost unbelievable that we got a pretty good TV show, that stays true to, and respects the source material, while also capturing the essence of it.., must be one in a hundred, or more likely, a thousand..plus..

Very interested to see what and how it will do with the next, and if that one goes well, other upcoming seasons. Somehow it looks and feels it will be great.

The Fallout TV series, inspired by the beloved video game franchise, has received praise for its faithful recreation of the post-apocalyptic world fans cherish. The visuals capture the desolate beauty of the wasteland, with iconic elements like power armor, Vault-Tec jumpsuits, and mutated creatures brought to life in stunning detail. The storytelling effectively balances dark humor, survival drama, and action-packed sequences, staying true to the game's tone. The cast delivers strong performances, with nuanced characters that add emotional depth. It's a thrilling adaptation that honors the source material while offering fresh surprises for longtime fans.

Watched it, and it is completely unrealistic. No crashes the whole way through! But it is a brill show. I watched it with family, and it contained many things. We can tell that the producers really tried to remain true to the games, and as a fan I really appreciate the viewpoint from the item, with realistic props and things like power armor, even the Yai Goui looked brill. Good medicine depictions, brilliant storyline but quite a bit of nudity and violence, but all good shows need a bit of that. I love the way it intertwines with new Vegas, and it is perfect in every way. Lovely show with brill actors.

The world building in the show is very precise.. and ig it would be more accurate and fabulous in the next episode.

You would find no moment that would bore you.

Ella purnell was fantastic in the role and so was walton goggins, the ghoul was like my favourite character in the show.

Depiction of the vaults and how a vault dweller encounters the world above, was very good.

Story sails very smooth, and i think even for the people who know nothing about the fallout franchise, it's very entertaining and gripping.

There's a lot of content that the show could use from the game so fingers crossed for the next season.
