The series Fallout is on Prime now.

Watched the first episode and really liked it so far.

Like its inspiration, Fallout is a monumental achievement of sci-fi world-building, presenting an alternately horrifying and exhilarating vision of a United States held together by little more than duct tape and Wonder Glue, unflagging optimism and ultra-violent mercilessness. At once accessible and intricate, familiar and unique, it blends brutality, romance, intrigue and wide-eyed awe—and unites man, machine and mutant—to craft a mesmerizing fantasy of the end-times, and all the wild delirium that follows it.

not a bad opening scene at all.

Good reviews so far.  Apparently they play it pretty fast and loose with the lore, but I don't really care about that kind of thing as long as the show is good.  Will be checking this out, though I admit I'd probably be more interested if Walton Goggins was the main character.

Not his character in the show.  Just IRL Walton Goggins.

May or may not have blown my whole day watching seven straight episodes...  saving the finale for tomorrow.

Love it.

ya this is gold standard stuff!

Oh boy! I know what I'll be doing this weekend.

Are all episodes available?  I could only play the first one but seen others possibly imply the rest are available somewhere?

I need to watch this alone, which is not easy here

I feel your pain.  Being the only male in my house, aside from my cat and doggie, I find that the only way I can geek out is alone.

Even my dog and cat are female! I have zero support

Yes, all episodes (8) are up on Prime.

Watched the finale this morning and it did not disappoint. 

Al should not worry, either, as Walt Goggins ability was not wasted in this show.  He is strong throughout.


I got lucky starting it early yesterday knowing it was kind of just background noise for my wife while she was surfing and emailing.  Luckily she was pretty quickly pulled in, and after the finale this morning she said, "That was a pretty good show!"

Much more of an endorsement from her than I was expecting.

Och, that must be tough.  You'll have to come over either Gus's or my house to geek out in peace.

I couldn't get through the first episode.  I think I noped out about 45 minutes in. 

Maybe I'll go back after Shogun is finished, but probably not.
