Fallout

This show is very entertaining, plot is also very good, acting is amazing. I love the development between characters and the way they interact. This show adds a bit of everything to the show as for examples action, bit of horror, comedy, thriller aspects. Show it keeps u engaged the whole time. Great show.

Didn't know what to expect from fallout tv adaptation, and after finally watched it, can with satisfaction say that it's very good. Lots of good stuff in the show, and quite some excellent. It is nice that we got a military grunt wanna be hero, instead of actual "all capable" cliche. Also excellent is that Lucy turned out all that nowdays is hard to even expect, let alone actually get on TV.

Good characters, and the Ghoul is excellent. Good plot for the season, very game alike. And very good story that we only scratched the surface of in S1. Really looking forward to S2.

Fallout might just be the best show on TV out there.

The world-building, the sense of adventure, the performances are all top notch. I really love the '50s sound track (what show couldn't use a little Johnny Cash now and then?) and the quirky sense of humour that lightens the mood.

What really sets this show apart though are the characters. If you've been watching any sci-fi or fantasy fiction over the last decade or so, you can't help but notice the number of girlbosses out there - basically young women who are inexplicably good at everything, who never face any real challenges and frequently have their best moments at the expense of their blundering male compatriots.

Well, Lucy MacLean is no girlboss. She's intelligent, resourceful and brave - heroic, even - but she also starts off the show as hopelessly out of her depth, makes serious mistakes and has to learn from those around her like Maximus to survive.

Maximus himself has a great arc, starting off as a squire desperate to prove himself and becoming a battle-hardened warrior by the end of the first season.

All of which is to say that these are heroes you can genuinely root for, which isn't something you can say about many shows nowadays.

And what can you say about the Ghoul? Honestly, you could watch the show just for him.

Fallout is a large complex anthology video game series where every game is self contained story, different time period and in most cases location too, and like that forming the franchise of one larger world, history and lore, with the tone that although more or less varies, carries on and persists, specific and recognizable.

In another words, it's not easy to properly introduce Fallout to different media, what in this case was a successful introduction.

With this very good start, Fallout now has the potential to expand, and grow better and better.

Action packed, post apocalypse drama, and sci fi, and satire, and survival, and even adventure. Human nature and nature of war are the themes. And also there's the intrigue, and just a little bit of mystery..

Sound, tone, visuals and vibe complement all that suitably for each occasion and throughout all eight episodes.

Pretty good show for sure.
