Fallout's Ghoul, played by Walton Goggins, in front of a dust cloud
The era of the video game adaptation is upon us. The last few years have seen the success of The Witcher, Arcane, Gran Turismo, The Last of Us, and now Fallout, with a Borderlands film on the horizon too. It seems games have replaced superhero comics as the go-to source material for studios in search of a hit.
As a result, it doesn't shine quite so brightly as the others . The settings are also at their least impressive in this one. The desert backdrops, in particular, are kind of boring, looking like a rehash of The Road Warrior. Nevertheless, the episode features some solid Easter eggs for the gamers. For example, Howard's quip about the Golden Rule of the desert being you always get sidetracked is a reference to the games' notoriously convoluted side quests.
6 "The Target" Season 1, Episode 2 "It’s a knight’s duty to better this fallen world." Episode 2 was fast-paced and action-packed, beginning with a flashback of Wilzig and lovable mutt CX404, who later meet Lucy. Then, Knight Titus is attacked by an impressively realized mutant bear, after which Maximus lets him die and claims his armor. To top it off, we're treated to Western-style shootouts courtesy of Howard.
The action is pretty lukewarm here, but the main actors are at least charismatic and likable. They're a key part of the show's success. Even the supporting characters tend to be quirky and memorable, adding value to their scenes. Stellar production design holds the rest of it together, with the world of the show coming across as stylized without being overly cartoony.
3 "The Radio" Season 1, Episode 7 "This is about all the horsesh*t I can take." Lucy and Maximus leave Vault 4, dreaming of a life together in Vault 33. Lucy also proves that she's far more decent and good-hearted than the rest of the characters by insisting that Maximus returns Vault 4's fusion core. Soon after, they track down Thaddeus, now a Ghoul, and take back Wilzig's head.

Highly Anticipated Fallout TV Series Debuts to Exceptional ReviewsPrime Video's highly anticipated Fallout TV series arrived on Wednesday, debuting to exceptional reviews and a ton of buzz. The Fallout video game franchise has been wildly popular for years, and a lot of that energy seems to have carried over into Jonathan Nolan's live-action television series. Of course, now that the first season is here and fans are already binging the entire thing, many are starting to wonder about Season 2. Is there going to be more Fallout in the future? Right now, that question can't be answered with 100% certainty, strictly because Amazon hasn't officially announced the renewal of Fallout for a second season. That being said, a second season seems all-but guaranteed at this point. Not only is there a lot of hype surrounding an already existing IP, but some important things have already lined up in favor of Fallout getting more episodes.
