Featured reviews
Best game adaptation ever! Also very good adaptation in general, and pretty good TV show.
Genuine. Has all the feel and vibe necessary.
Additional seasons will continue the story and provide answers, pay-offs, and resolutions. Let's hope that "the wait" won't be too long, and that there will be several seasons part of overall Series..
As for the first season in particular, without spoilers: it's pretty good. Visuals, sound, production value, and story. Although it is, as mentioned, mostly setting the larger story..
Also isn't a regular TV show. Refreshing, in a way different, and of high quality.

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..

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.
Fallout is the recipe for how to adapt a video game. A tv show that feels like a video game at the same time. Made for gamers and non gamers. And that is how it should be.
Performances are on point to. Walton Goggins is great. World building is massive and storytelling, while highly accurate to smallest details, and similar to the story for this season that, while wraps its self by the finale, it is establishing overall, serving the purpose for introduction..
Show is very engaging, entertaining and fun, amusing even, also attractive and memorable, while much more intelligent than lets on right away..

Probably the best video game adaptation so far, or definitely, and probably beyond so far. Also adapts and uses the source material in general very well.
True to Fallout games, the vibe is genuine, the feel is genuine, encompasses the essence, has the core of, and knows how to stay at the core. All combined, Fallout show is the definition of understanding the assignment.
Season 1 sets the story and puts things to motion, so the wait for ultimate resolution will be that of several seasons. In addition to that, Fallout isn't of those every-day shows, instead it's different and refreshing. Thumbs Up!
