What do you think. Looks like they pretty much nailed it.
First episode is available 04-12-04.
They had me at Walter Goggins!

[Bootie]

Ooooh... thanks for the heads up.

 

[Rico]

This looks promising.

 

[mTk]

It's up, all 8 episodes.

[Rico]

Starting watching it ... not bad.

 

[mTk]

Yeah, that seems to be the general opinion.
Looking forward to it myself. Maybe tonight...

 

[Vartuoosi]

Absolutely awful Toddslop diarrhea from start to finish.
Modders won't be able to fix this shit.

 

[mTk]

Oh, c'mon. Don't be shy. How'd you really feel about it?

 

[Rico]

Yeah, three episodes in and the whole thing is a bit flat and a bit unimaginative.

 

[Buckykatt]

Watched two episodes, will continue to watch, so far mildly entertaining

 

[Rico]

What's hilarious, is how everyone keeps traipsing about in the inhospitable post-apocalyptic wilderness -- but no one seems to worry about carrying much water, food, supplies...

 

[mTk]

Reviews I've read all pretty much say the same, that the first 4 episodes ae pretty slow.

 

[mTk]

My absolute favorite film/TV critic.

[mTk]

Well, I was sold in about the first 15 minutes or so of episode One..
Having played Fallout 1,2 & 3 I felt right at home.
Off to start my binge watching.

[mTk]

OK, after a couple of more episodes...I like this. I really do.
Some comments have been it is "slow?" Do not understand that.
Things/people in the game that blow up spewing body parts all over are kind of funny.
Not laughing about its quite so much in this show.
I did have to laugh when one of the main characters (mainly Lucy) bumps into someone and they
ignore her, just like an NPC would.
Power armor rules!

 

[Rico]

This arrangement did look familiar.

"Amazon's live adaptation of Fallout was so well-received, the fourth main game in the franchise
had a resurgence in sales almost a decade after it was released. If you were ever worried about its
fate despite the success it enjoyed, you can rest easy, for now: Amazon has already renewed the
show for a second season, mere days after the first one debuted." -Amazon

Just finished episode six and I learned something...very important.
Under no circumstances, and I'm really serious about this, DO NOT enter Vault 4.
The show has turned from something fun, quirky and occasionally brutally violent
into an absolute horror show.
DO NOT enter Vault 4. Please.
