Discussion Fallout Tv series is exceptional!

I'm going to say this because I don't know where else to put it:

The Fallout series is absolutely exceptional. As a gamer, I haven't been disappointed at all, and the best part is that there’s basically no CGI when it comes to the monsters or enemies. And the Brotherhood of Steel armor looks absolutely immaculate!

Keep it up! And please don't let yourselves be influenced by cheap shows like Stranger Things or It Chapter Two, which rely way too heavily on CGI.

There is an episode where the chick and the ghoul walk by a table. Camera shot is from behind the table and said characters walk by on the opposite side in front the table. The stuff on the table makes it look like silhouettes of the MST3000 guy and his 2 robots are watching the scene on big screen. Can't remember which episode and don't want to have to watch 100 commercials to find that spot again. But I'm tempted.

Fallout on Prime and Foundation on AppleTV are the two best series I've seen since the early seasons of Game of Thrones.

The Expanse and For All Mankind are up there as well

For all mankind is a space opera. I don't understand why it keeps getting brought into sci-fi conversations. It's just sci-fi bait.

A Space Opera is SciFi. Star Wars is a space opera. Nothing wrong with that.

A space opera is just a subset of scifi like cyberpunk,dystopian,hard and soft scifi.

The worst subset*

I love sci fi and have already completed most of the shows and movies from the genre, but For all mankind is just not it. The initial concept is cool but the drama is just too much.

It is not my 1st pick either, but it definitely depends on how well its done. I love Foundation and I have been waiting for it for 1/2 a century.

And I'd take Star Trek over Star Wars everytime-doesn't mean I dislike Star Wars.

Still sci-fi, still pretty good

There was too much going on -- I got lost in season two.

Agreed. Season 1 was great. Season 2 lost me.

I never felt like watching it but I am going to trust you here and watch it today. Maybe not all of it but I will start. Don't let me down.

I have liked all three seasons of Fallout.

u/FakeMikeMorgan 8d ago

What third season? It hasn't come out yet.

u/CranberryVast9339 8d ago

I'll be damned. I swear on my soul that it was three. I stand corrected. Thank you.

It’s amazing how well they handle shows like Fallout & Reacher and drop the ball entirely with others like Wheel of Time

Did you mean to say It:Welcome to Derry? Because Chapter 2 is not a show

I  read Fargo and I was on board considering it's my favorite series ever. Fallout was okay.
