They did pretty well with The Expanse and also Good Omens.

And although Dirk Gently deviated from the books quite significantly, I thought they captured the essence of it fairly well.

Yep, loved all of those.

Walton Goggins signed up to play a lead character, he's been good in everything I've seen him in.

Edit: according to anonymous sources, he's gonna play a ghoul.

This could be all kinds of awesome. Or awful.. Fingers crossed it is the first, I can imagine a really, really scary/suspense filled scene when you see a Deathclaw and try to hide !!

Further information is also available here:
https://www.cbr.com/fallout-series-new-photos-plot...

It's going to be on Amazon Prime Video and it's scheduled for April 2024.

It's also going to feature a female protagonist and I'm just waiting for the backlash of comments saying "So woke! When I played these games where you can literally choose the gender, age, skin colour, and physical appearance of your character, I always chose a man so therefore the character should be a man!" hehe

edit: Your link is better!

Can't wait, and let's hope with the Westworld and Boys connection surely that means it should be good.

Not necessarily. Westworld started great, but turned into a dumpster fire and got cancelled early. I’ve only watched season one of the Boys and that was decent. Apparently season 2 got a bit woke though.

Visually, Fallout looks impressive, although having a female lead these days doesn’t give me much confidence. Hopefully she’s not just another unlikable, invincible, Mary Sue girl boss, who is good at everything because vagina. One of the writers co-wrote Captain Marvel, so that’s not a good portent.

There isn't a single lead, there are 3 main characters, vault dweller, Brotherhood of Steel squire and ghoul. 2 are men.

Just.... wow.

Well, the simple answer is not to watch it then and go find something more macho and manly, where women are only supporting characters. It's not like you're short of choices.
