Big fan of the Fallout series so was very worried about this. Was blown away about how well they adapted, superb. Perfect translation of Fallout to TV. Loved all the actors, loved the plot, characters, writing, action, effects. Totally addictive, suspect non-Fallout fans will Love this also. Characterisation of all characters was complete, enjoyable, changeable. Such a breath of fresh air to see such good, intelligent, creative writing. Addictive viewing from start to end. Really hope they continue this and is an example of good TV for other programs. Highly recommend and look forward to more.
Amongst the best game adaptations ever and good TV. Not easy to balance between the two. Off balance can go too game or too TV. In this case, in balance. Almost perfect balance really..
Premise appears simple but it is more than that. More one looks, more it looks like what is presumed might not be. Some things are left ambiguous, other do not add up, while for example, what is presumed to be a MacGuffin, isn't because got actual value added to it, having impact and effect, as well as what it is, what it does, and its origin revealed..
Great season that ends with promising finale, and as continues from there, season two might just be even better..

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!

I started this show by curiousity, and it was so cool. The show start with some context of how all happened and why all the people are in vaults, but then, it start to go more dark and misterious. The way the different plotlines go connecting little by little is wonderful, and it´s so entertaining. One of the best things of the show (that also, is based on the Fallout games) is that you can enjoy it without playing the games before. The main characters (Lucy, Maximus, The Ghoul) are very solid and likeable. The best thing for me, the last two episodes. Specially the last. The way it connects all the plotlines in the show with a very shocking revelation is perfect. So,¿I recommend this show? Yes. If you like the games or want to watch a good show, this is a very good option.
Literally felt like I was on the Truman show watching my own campaign. Whenever I had a criticism of them not implementing a facet of the game I was pleasantly surprised later on. Only thing I'm confused on are the water monsters? Are they murlurks? Don't remember them in the game but maybe I just don't remember. I seriously cannot wait for season 2 and then for this franchise to become 10 times what star wars became. There is seriously not as many imperfections as there are fingers on my hand. If they continue this series of bringing the greatest games to life they might just save the theaters🤣
