Its alright. Has a lot of fun moments, sometimes tries to hard and falls on its face. 6 or 7 outta 10.

It has a lot of fun with its roots as part of the Bethesda games, so if that is what you think of as Fallout, it gets bonus point. It takes a bit of a steaming dump on its roots as part of Interplay Fallout, so if that's your frame of reference, loses some points.

All in all, worth watching, but only good in the context of "for a show about a video game".

Still, because of the very opinionated fanbase, it's either the best or worst thing ever depending on who you ask.
