the Fallout show is a miracle

There are FOUR main characters! Everyone keeps forgetting about Norm, the sneak/hacker class.

I really liked how the 3 main characters represents different play styles of the games.

I like that the creative side of the production resisted the urge to reinvent the wheel with props and costumes etc. the laser rifle looks like the laser rifle for example

I had really high hopes for Walton Goggins and he's fucking slayed the role. Absolute badass and a joy to listen to. Kinda wish he had more big mainstream roles.

When the brother, hacks the overseers computer. Its the same hacking screen from the games. Very cool little detail they didn't need to add but they did. :")

Lucy looking at the NCR flag and then the New Vegas music kicking in was a godly moment

The fact that Cooper is also the original Vault Boy is the most brilliant part of the whole season.

I really liked the chicken ****er scene, I was immediately thinking this is a random encounter. Not is all as it seems. You walk into something and think you know what choice to make and suddenly you are completely wrong.

Cooper/The Ghoul was also a Marine in the Anchorage campaign, before the bombs fell. So he knows a lot about the power armor.

I couldn't stand Maximus right up until the last episode (spoilers). Every time throughout the show that he managed to grab power (becoming a squire, taking the power suit, bullying Thaddeus) he would get this stupid, self-satisfied smile on his face because all he wanted was power over other people. But in the last episode, the whole brotherhood is cheering "All hail Knight Maximus" and he just looks DONE with everything. I thought that really put a nice bow on his developement and just brought me fully on board.

Walton Goggins as the cowboy ghoul gunslinger was inspired casting

I loved how often they walked while the classy music was playing 👌

This made me fall in love with fallout again I had no expectations and was blown away.

i loved the main trio and how they represented different stages of players lives in the game. lucy is like a fresh player right out of the vault. maximus is a player swept up in a faction quest. and Walton Goggins is an immortal player with 3k hours whose modded the game to hell and back

I almost lept out of my seat when they showed the meeting with the cirporations, big MT, and MR HOUSE of all people.

Every time I heard a stimpak or any other sound lifted right from the game, I felt so good lmao. A very good show!

My parents (in their 60's) watched it. They really liked the world. My pops bought one of the games and started playing

As Walton Goggins said in an interview (para) "It's amazing that the brother who won an Oscar for making a movie about the first atomic bomb, and the other brother makes a movie about USING the bomb to end civilisation."

Fallout is special because of the balance it holds between being unsettling/heavy and humorous/lighthearted. I am through episode 5 so far and feel the show has been masterful so far in that balance. I think the show also really recognizes its identity. There is no need to explain or retcon some of the more video-gamey parts of Fallout. Like, stimpaks=health.

I was fearing the worst and had very little expectations for this but damn they absolutely nailed it. I'm loving it.
