I’m glad you liked it, but I have to disagree with you. I feel the Fallout games did not lend themselves to being translated to the screen very well. That basically none of this has anything to do with the games. So they might as well have called it Random Dystopian Show and it would have had the same impact. I don’t really see it is any different than the Halo show. The only tie-in is that it takes place “in the same universe”.

Yeah my general impression of the show was that it would be much more enjoyable if I hadn't seen the originals that a lot of the stories lifted from. It's like an amalgamation of some of the better fallout storylines. That being said I still haven't gotten round to watching season 2
