Angela: "please be cool please be cool"
Narrator: "They were, in fact, NOT cool"
Look for the Goggins interview when he fell asleep in his costume and makeup, woke up with a mirror near him and almost shit himself LOL.
I love that 😂
Cooper is easily my favorite character, he's like the best of the ghoul companions in one, but especially like Raul (Danny Trejo) from New Vegas.
but I thought he said it was cgi?
@@overlorddoge1952 the nose was. Everything other than the nose was practical
Robert Englund said the same thing happened to him while wearing the Freddy makeup...
on the set of Nightmare on Elm Street
This show is so fantastic. I think the entire gaming community was shocked by the pure attention to detail, and the story is like something straight outta the games. A literal modern day masterpiece.
There are few frakups here and there done to the lore... But as Bethesda has all rights to it... Frak it, it is a good show.
@@Diveyl What exactly is the messup here?
So much detail in this show.
@@Diveyl you can say fuck on the internet
@@charlie7mason NCR first capital location for starters, not were it should be. It was not near LA at all but more up north and a bit to the west , as it is a first bigger location you visit when you exit vault in original Fallout game.
The creature like lurker as well. I wouldn't expect it in the west. Zeppelin was more of the east coast design then the original west, and in the west brotherhood should have worked as part of NCR. But as there were many separate chapter of brotherhood then you can let it practically slide... And the east could expand considerably from the east to west and united with chapters along the way...
You can actually search for discrepancy in lore from people that are more into it then me and are actually putting films on YT about it.
I feel like Walton Goggins has done nothing but mostly random secondary bad guy roles for a long time.
And suddenly, out of nowhere has exploded into one of the most beloved actors of the decade. He 100% deserves all the recognition he's been getting.
Calm your horses.
There's nothing random or secondary in Boyd Crowder (Justified). Come to think of it, I should have put him in my best villains shortlist. My mistake.
@@sergioaccioly5219…‘cause he’s *THE OUTLAW* in the room…
Was I the only one who watched “The Shield”? That was the first place I saw him.
Probably because he’s been subtly respected forever that all the good vibes existed already, they were just brought out into the open by the popularity of this show. Just a theory idk lmao
"Never quote me on anything."

😂😂😂
The scene where Lucy lists her accomplishments for her marriage application, mirrors the character creation stats in the game.
Her tag skills seem to be repair, speech and science. Though her small guns skill seems pretty good as well
@@berjanbeen7188 I'd say repair, unarmed and small guns. She's not particularly good at speech, but she's naturally charismatic. She hasn't really done anything particularly sciency. I would also say she's got high Luck, based mostly on the fact that her name's Lucy. High Luck, Agility and Charisma. Decent Endurance and Intelligence too.
@@shadowfragment tbh I feel like if we go by the original games and their traits I would say she has got the "Gifted" and either "Skilled" or "Good Natured" traits. Tag skills are likely "Small Guns" or "Melee Weapons" since she is on the fencing team and only dabble in riflery, "Unarmed" and "Repair".
@@karmehed Gifted and Skilled is not a great combination. You're basically using opposite traits to cancel eachother out. One or the other, but not both. Good Natured is a perfect fit for her character, definitely agree on that one..
I think you're taking her too literally when she says she 'dabbled' in riflery. She was being modest. In the video of her shooting at the target she is shown to be nearly perfect in her marksmanship.
@@shadowfragment I do agree that a gifted/Skilled is not a great combo in the game, however Gifted fits perfectly with the breeding plan which we learn more about later......... And while it is definitely possible that she has Small Guns, she is also in the pipe fitters club or what ever she calls it, and she does grappling and fencing so it is really a toss up imo. Hell she could just have enough intelligence to have a decent amount of repair base skill.
They really just nailed the tone of the games perfectly. Heartfelt, dark, silly, goofy, human, and terrifying.
@guregury agreed, plus the Vault outfits are just like the outfits from the games, they even got the PIpboy accurate
Yep, they nailed it so hard they made me pick up Fallout 4 again, of course with a massive amount of mods as is tradition. They definitely nailed the atmosphere in the show.
@@TehIdiotOne same here, plus they didn't go cheap or go overboard with the CGI for the suit that Maximus pilots
@@rickymoranjr9609 Oh yeah for sure, the power armor looks great, i was incredibly worried that it was going to look wonky, but they actually managed to make it look plausible.
@@TehIdiotOne yep, best of all the voice disguiser was perfect when the pilot talks in the power armor
"It is your thumb or mine ?", the line delivery from this little girl blew my mind.
in the ~2 minutes of screen time I was very impressed by that actor.
She's got a future in acting for sure! Hopefully her parents keep her safe...
To me it's more of the face. The way she showed her fear on the face was magnificent.
@@stephenbruce1548 Fear and doubt, on her face and in her voice.
Yeah, the pure despair in her voice, I had to remind myself she was just acting lol
Funnylilgalreacts: Today we will start watching Fallout
Everybody else: Okey dokey!
One Nolan brother makes a movie about creating the atomic bomb.
The other Nolan brother makes a TV show about dropping it.
It’s always great to see a reactor who has no clue about the IP in question. It gives a great “outside looking in” perspective and knowing this channel, you’re gonna LOVE this show even if you’re not a diehard fan of the material. Can’t wait for episode 2!
Idk with this one. I think the ones that are fans of it have by far been a lot more fun to watch than the ones that don’t know anything about the games. (Usually it’s the other way around.) It’s mostly because the ones that are new to the series truly don’t notice how much work has been put into it, all the references and tiniest of details fly right over their head. It just looks like good set design and nothing else. They kind of just blink without any reaction, whereas the fan has an aneurysm and you can watch them noticing everything as their mind is blown by *finally* having a good video game adaptation. Watching them see something come to life.
Like someone noticing a laser rifle or what’s under the blanket and jumping in their seat whereas the newbie goes, huh, guess it’s like some science place.
@@Vioven I was unreasonably excited when Lucy used the Stimpack.
@@michaelsutherland5848same but with the vaults design and the jet 😅
It's the best type of reaction! Seems a lot more genuine than the ones based on nostalgia
Norm says he's chicken, but he turns out to be pretty darn brave. I love that guy.
I think the #1 rule for how Ghouls appear in Fallout is that yes, they absolutely are zombie-like monster folks, but they also have to be just sexy enough that you start to ask uncomfortable questions about yourself.
The showrunner and director is Jonathan Nolan, Chris Nolan's brother. He is a hardcore Fallout fan. He has been playing Fallout since 2008.
The woman who plays Lucy is a fan too. Walton isn't, but he said his son freaked out when he heard Dad had been offered Fallout.
The f/x team are fans too. Bethesda gave them free reign to make the powersuits however they wanted. They instead created two actual working power suits that look just like the game's suits. When Bethesda saw them, they said oh wow, you're doing the game.
The young girl playing Janey at the start, her fear expression was fantastic. What a great performance in that short span.
non-spoilerly background. The date is 2070ish when the bombs drop. The world is sort of stagnate in technology of the 1950s and aesthetics. So while they have futuristic stuff, it is grounded in transistors and 1950s style still.
Her little voice was so full of fear and innocence
The inhaler was an in-game drug called Jet that slows your perception of time. So he got to enjoy that door chopping him in half nice and slow.
Huh. So slo-mo in Dredd was inspired by Jet in Fallout.
@@pillar81 Wasn't Dredd based on a comic or an older movie or something?
Yup, Its a comic frank Miller did in the 80s @@Dad......
@@pillar81 no
So a bit of background, this takes place in an alternate timeline where the culture of the 1950s and 60s persisted and the year the opening scene takes place in is 2077 where nuclear energy gained more use as oil at this point was extremely rare. And because the culture of the 50s and 60s persisted we never stopped making nuclear weapons, so there were a lot more being used in the nuclear war of this timeline. The lore of fallout is really fascinating and I highly recommend checking it out.
no microprocessors...
@@paulhewes7333 microprocessors did the division point, but after some time someone should have made the discovery at one point somewhere.
In F4 they touched upon the subject of processors with the family and research upon ancient alien artifact... I blanked on the family name...
@akka8588
There were more to it then simply making more nuclear weapons. Nuclear technology was everywhere. Robots, vehicle, radios, clocks... Everything was run on fusion cores or fusion cells. As for the weapons there were many payloads, from ICBM to small tactical. Mini nukes were relatively short addition to the mix before the fall. If I am not mistaken they were deployed and used in Anchorage Alaska, to aid in pushing out the Chinese invasion, along the T-51 PA that, according to F4 found lore, was developed alongside each other.
@@paulhewes7333 that too and the transitor wasn't invented until much much later
You can put it much simpler - they used sci-fi ideas and illustrations made in the 1950s for this franchise.
And of course people in the 1950s had ideas about inventions that have not been made (like cars powered by nuclear reactors), but also didn't anticipate a lot of inventions that actually had been made since then.
@@paulhewes7333 no semiconductors needed to make transistors eventfully microprocessors
In case anyone doesn't already know this, Kyle MacLachlan (Lucy's dad) played Paul Atreides in David Lynch's Dune movie from the 80s. So this coming out the same year as Dune Pt 2 is just amazing
"...humans at either their best or their worst" is a perfect description of this entire show.
Lucy actress (Ella Purnell) is Jinx from Arcane. She’s actually British in real life. Freaked out her co-stars when they heard her natural accent. They thought she was faking it, lol.
I guessed she was British.
Okie dokie!
If you want more recognisable faces, Betty is Blind Al and the one guy that wakes up "the ghoul" is Bubba from Forrest Gump.
@@KMCA779 He's also Limehouse from Justified, where he encounter another Walton Goggins character,
@@KMCA779 And Lucy's dad is Paul Atreidies 😆
'Get that jelly mold out of here!'
Might be one of my favourite lines of all time
0:36 Unlike the Last of Us the Fallout TV series is it's own original story set in the Fallout universe. It's not an adaptation of a certain game but does pull from the history of the wasteland showcased throughout the games.
Timeline:
The Great War - *2077*
Fallout - *2161*
The Vault Dweller (Vault 13)
Southern California (L.A area)
Fallout 2 - *2241*
The Chosen One (Tribal)
Northern California (San Fran area)
Fallout 3 - *2277*
The Lone Wanderer (Vault 101)
Capital Wasteland (D.C)
Fallout New Vegas - *2281*
The Courier (Well... a Mailman lol)
Mojave Wasteland (Mojave Desert)
Fallout 4 - *2287*
The Sole Survivor (Vault 111)
The Commonwealth (Boston)
Fallout TV - *2296*
I can't recall where I read it, but the basic timeline of the show came from the story proposed for an early version of Fallout 5.
Fallout 1 map in the west actually include Death Valley and Mojave desert.
Fallout 76 - 2153
West Virginia (Vault 76)
@@SeanBladerI don't think anyone counts 76
This is basically Fallout 5 in TV form.
I think one of the reasons this works so well is that they haven't just tried to re-tell the story of one of the games but have made an incredible effort to make it seem like it takes place in the same world and exists along with them.
The show is officially canon and takes place in the same universe as the games.
@@michaelmcintyre3871 Yes, despite certain people crying that it's not. You always get things that don't line up exactly across entries so why should this one be any different? One of the central creators of Fallout 1 is happy with the show so I think there are certain fans that should really chill out a little bit.
Yeah I mean each game recons older games as well! Power armor used to be powered by energy cells (in lore not actually in game), and now by fusions cores. Moving one of the most iconic towns a few hundred miles for the convenience of the show is a stretch... but the maps in Fallout 1 and 2 were pretty inaccurate anyways! The main concern was one of that dates not lining up with a beloved game, but the creators already clarified that point, so I don't see what all the fuss is.
@@Scimarad tim cain has some pretty bad takes on modern fallout, but he also has some pretty good takes on fallout in general (of course)
@@Dubstyles84 new vegas does not retcon anything from 1 and 2
What's really clever about this show is that each protagonist embodies three of the many different playstyles one could choose in the games.
We have a stand-up, innocent Vault Dweller, who has an independent mission to complete but wants to generally do some good along the way; we have someone who dedicates themselves to one faction (in this case the Brotherhood of Steel) and wants to bring victory and order to the wastes, no matter the cost; and finally we have a crazy psycho wild wastelander who just wants to make a mess and have some fun!
Also correspond to a player's first, second, and third playthrough
@@senorelroboto2 incidentally most of my hundreds of hours in FO4 are using mods to start outside the vault and avoiding the story as much as possible. Not that it's a bad story but I love the world so much.
Ghoul is not a psycho, far from it. He is just cold and focused on survival, also in hunt for revenge and a bit of justice. A bit chaotic but not a madman.
@@Diveyl Debatable, but I meant more in the sense of that character archetype you can play in Fallout, rather than being super specific
@@senorelroboto2 Or how they change during the course of the playthrough.
To be fair, Walton Goggins making ballon animals sounds pretty entertaining! I'll bet he's good at that, too!
This is why the show works. When someone who knows ZERO about the Fallout universe and they are all in at the start of the show...Let's keep our paws crossed for 4, 5 or 6 seasons.
the "Amish production of The Count of Monte Cristo" line is so fucking funny, you have no idea
this Stim-pak that Lucy applied to herself at the beginning was a game reference. It is literally heals you instantly :)
I burn thru Stim packs in Fallout 4 like I am eating tic tac's
So used to hearing you say "Hey guys welcome to the channel. Today we're watching Battlestar Galactica."
Already miss it 😊
So say we all!
I had virtually no experience with the fallout franchise coming in, and this show hooked me so hard (binged it in 8 hours or so) that I went right out and bought all the games and I’m now ~13 hours into fallout 4 ❤️
I'm the same... Had a bit of exposure to the universe with the little side game "Fallout Shelter' that they put out, where you build and manage a bunker, but never player the real games. I'm about 20 hours into Fallout New Vegas at the moment lol
Welcome to the Fallout 4 family. Glad you are enjoying it.
Why wouldn't you start at the beginning if you bought all the games?
@@shelbyseelbach9568 I’ll get around to the old ones eventually. It’s not like they’re linear, directly-connected stories. Part 4 looked the most interesting to me
@@jasonmarbach7800 ok then. You do you.
The way Maximus' voice changes during his interrogation is something I've only seen maybe once or twice in film. IMO the best scene of the pilot, which is saying a lot
The doll leg in the chest and the utensils fired later were fired from a Junk Jet, a weird but powerful weapon from the fallout series. One of the things about the game is that so much junk laying around is pocketable. You can pick it all up everywhere and carry it in your inventory. Much of it is useful to combine into other items from weapons to medication. The Junk Jet lets you use all the other junk as ammo
I love the quirkiness of the junk jet. A baby doll leg projectile sounds dangerous because it is
Put to good use by Many a True Nerd in his Fallout 3 kill everyone series, where he spent a lot of time chasing people down firing garden gnomes at them.
I love the Junk Jet in the game Fallout 4.
@@charlesbaldwin3166 I still remember one of the early Fallout 3 previews where they used it with a teddy bear and the bloody mess perk. There's something incredibly funny about watching an enemy burst apart into a spray of viscera after getting shot in the face with a teddy bear.
@@funnylilgalreacts (From playing the game) There's no better feeling than taking out a group of raiders with a Junkjet and a large quantity of teddy-bears for ammo.
The bomb blasts take place in 2077 in an alternate timeline (50s-60s style combined with future tech, nuclear energy was a bigger deal after ww2 than in our timeline).
Also Transistors weren't invented in the Fallout timeline so they were still using vacuum tubes.
@@Nocturnal85 I think transistors are still developed, just not as much and not completely replacing things (I don't think a pipboy would work without transistors, it seems too small for vacuum tubes).
@@jayburn00 After doing some looking. Transistors in Fallout were developed much later. Around 2023 in there timeline. Which is why mega corps had things such as pipboys. But they were not mass produced and it was considered a cutting edge technology. Was probably something Bethesda added to explain why Vault Tech had pipboys but your average joe didn't have cellphones or smartphones.
@@Nocturnal85 makes sense more or less
Walton is genius in everything, first role I ever saw him in was the shield, he played a dirty cop brilliantly
That scene when the bombs drop where that guy is begging his friend to let and his kid in the shelter just sticks in my head. He's knocked out and his kid has no idea what to do. If it was me and I built a fallout shelter in my yard, I think I'd design it (and have stocked) to be able to support a couple extra ppl. Both for a little wiggle room and a situation like that.
Im just bouncing around watching people react to this amazing show. Not typically subbing to them, just enjoying their reaction. You recognizing Dylan and loving Severance has made a follower outta me! You've got great taste!
So a bit of non-spoiler-y background information that doesn't really get explained in the show:
The Fallout world basically diverges from ours in the 1940s. Transistor-based technology (specifically micro-transistors, the things that make computers and any compact advanced electronics possible) is never invented. This is why everything is big and chunky and looks like it was designed in the 50s. Instead nuclear technology advances rapidly and becomes part of many everyday household items (the cars, for example, are all nuclear powered). This is why everything has a 1950s retro sci-fi look (and because it evokes that weird 1950s vintage optimism mixed with the ever present threat of nuclear war).
Lucy is modelled on a prototypical player character from the franchise. In many of the games you start out as a vault dweller who has to venture to the surface for one plot contrivance or another (in the very first game it was because the water purification system was broken and you had to go find a part, so the show did a bit of a nod to that). The montage of her explaining her skills is kind of like the character setup where you choose your stats and skills.
The Brotherhood of Steel is a faction that was born out of remnants of the US military based around a pseudo-religious, militaristic tech cult. That's probably kind of obvious given their organization, but there is a direct connection back to the pre-war era, and most of their tech is ex-military from that era, just salvaged and maintained. Depending on the game/location (the games are set in several different locations around the US, with the originals set on the west coast, and the newer games on the east coast, and New Vegas set in, well, Vegas) they can range from fascistic antagonists to chivalric allies depending on the chapter. Much like the medieval knights they're based on.
The other big faction to get a mention in this episode was The Enclave. Where the BoS are remnants of the US military, The Enclave are the remnants of the US government along with anyone else they deemed worthy of surviving the apocalypse - the best and brightest of science and industry. They're a tad... elitist, as you can probably imagine, looking down on most of the other survivors, and preferring to interact and manipulate events from the shadows or a distance. Unlike the BoS who focus on collecting and preserving old world tech, The Enclave continued to innovate and advance.
Stimpaks, the thing Lucy injects herself with, are the main healing item in the game. So you'll see a bit of video game logic here where a shot will cure any basic wound.
And unlike a bunch of other video game adaptations, this show is actually considered canon within the same world as the games. So that's just kinda neat.
“Oh, he seems sweet.”
😂
Lucy's actress = Jinx's voice actress, exceptional talent.
That is the wreck of the Eduard Bohlen. It ran aground on Skeleton Coast of Namibia, in 1909. After 100+ years, the desert has pushed the shoreline out, over 1,000 feet. They filmed a lot of scenes in Namibia. The desert has almost swallowed entire abandoned towns.
Fun note for you. The lady who plays Lucy (Ella Purnell) is also the voice actress of Jinx in Arcane. She is apparently just the goddess of amazing video game adaptations XD
have u seen her? she can be a goddess of whatever she wants ha
Fun fact.
In Fallout you can pick S(trength) P(erception) E(ndurance) C(harisma) I(ntelligence) A(gility) L(uck) stats and three boosted stats, that scene was literally a character creation menu from the Fallout game, showing her boosted stats are small weapons, unarmed and melee weapons as well as doing double duty by showing the instigating incident in the story and showing her naive but perky enthusiasm.
It also shows that she has trained hard for her skills, neatly shooting down everyone who was about too shout 'Mary-Sue' at the screen.
Its almost genius level writing to fit game lore, character development, plot and a real world media defence screen in a few lines.
I liked the animated cartoons depicting what makes you S.P.E.C.I.A.L
don't her skill are literally stated by her as REPAIR, SPEECH and SCIENCE.
Fun fact, you didn't watch the scene lol
@@brunokingz Hush or i'll set the puppet man on you!
The fact she actually got stabbed took her out of "Mary sue" territory for me.
Every reaction to this episode they always mention "The beds right there!" But sometimes you just have to bang on a table!
Have you ever really loved if you’ve never done it on a kitchen floor?
“I don’t know if they’re good or bad but I like them” and you officially get Fallout now 😂💙
Okay… explaining the years.
Fallout as a setting is the post-apocalypse of a 1950s retro future… which is to say ‘the future as imagined by the culture of the past’.
Specifically, that first scene has you looking at a vision of the nuclear-powered utopia as the people of the 1950s imagined it, with home service robots, miracle medicine, cars powered by nuclear fuel cells, and conspicuous consumption Cold War capitalism. You might note that you won’t see much in the way of cell phones or small electronics, because folks in the 1950s didn’t know that the microprocessor was going to be a thing, so computers are still operating on transistors and vacuum tubes.
In terms of a calendar reference, the bombs dropped in 2077. If you were looking at history books from the setting, they’d be familiar up until just around the end of World War 2.
“Lucy’s a badass.”
Realistically, Lucy has a decent foundation of skills, but her biggest asset seems to be a really high luck stat.
Okey dokey.
Idk, Max seems to have a higher luck score. His Intelligence? Well…
@@dstarling61 Max is definitely High Luck/End, Low Charisma/Int. He's trying his best!
Maximus has the idiot savant perk
@@dstarling61 Apparently he has a 4 intelligence stat, with a 6 luck, according to the official fallout twitter.
Since they don't directly say it in the show, it's not a spoiler to tell you the bombs dropped in the year 2077. It's just an alternate history where the focus on nuclear war led to more innovations in nuclear tech, but semiconductor tech (i.e. transistors, and what we consider modern electronics) was never invented. So it's a mix of futuristic tech and 1950s aesthetics and components. Basically, it's what people in the 50s thought the future would look like.
One of the reasons that I love this series is that it plays well to audience members regardless of whether they're familiar with the game or not. Really great storytelling.
The syringe Lucy used is called Stimpak. It is full of healing agents and stimulants. Its increases the body's natural regenerative functions. It heals wounds instantly even broken bones. That is why Lucy pulled out the knife. If she couldn't found a stimpak she would be dead
“I hit myself with a curling iron im a little bitch”. Never before have you been so real.i fuxking laughed my face off thank you.
Haha, I kept rewinding to see the recognition on your face when Lucy said "cousin stuff."
FunFact: Ella Purnell (Lucy) is the voice actress who voiced Jinx in Netflix's Arcane
I already liked this show a lot. With this information, it just hit out of the scales in enjoyment.
Lucy and Jinx in the same room... What a story it'd be.
The thing on their wrists is their “Pip-boy”. In the game that is how you access all your game data. Your map, your missions, inventory, health, it’s even used as a flashlight. The TV show representation is VERY accurate to the game. I was very impressed. “I don’t know if they’re good or bad, but I like them!” Yep, that’s the Brotherhood of Steel! 😂 “The Enclave” was one of the main factions in Fallout 3. They were born out of the remnants of the United States Government. Fallout 3 was based around Washington DC and they were based out of an underground facility called Raven Rock, which is based on a real place called Raven Rock.
The Enclave was also in Fallout 2 before FO3 as the main antagonist, and technically in New Vegas too, although only in a small and very missable side quest.
Love the pip boy in the show.
@@hexalby Yep. Canonically, the Enclave is the lineage of politicians and paramilitary industrial VIPs. The first time you ever see them in the Fallout universe is in Fallout 2:
>> _Unwilling to cohabitate with wastelanders, the West Coast Enclave focused its research efforts on "cleansing the mutants" in order for "true humans, and democracy, to be safe."_
@@hexalby I never played Fallout 2, I didn't start until 3. Thanks for the Info
Boyd Crowder finally got his revenge on Limehouse ;)
There is also the new "3 body problem" show based on the Tri Solaris novels. Which I can recommend if you are into Sci fi and speculative science.
It does a good job at adapting the first book, changed the mostly Chinese cast a bit and added some tweaks.
The starting plot: Scientist around the world begin to kill themselfes because their experiments dont make any sense anymore...
The wrist devices actually are made with Apple iPhones for screens so you weren't far off with that Apple Watch comment. "Lucy" says she broke about four of the wrist props during filming because she talks with her hands and they'd fly off.
there's an android app, too ;)
I was wondering what was in the Pip Boy prop! Never would have guessed they had working screens but i suppose it’s easier than adding the screen in post.
"This is brutal!"
This is Fallout!😂 excellent adaptation of the source material...
"Beware of flying eyeballs"....
Walton Goggins's scenes are truly the highlight of every episode, which is funny because out of the main cast he seems to know the least about the fallout universe lol
28:00 The thing that shoots the guy is a small cannon called a “Junk Jet”. It uses anything labeled as “junk” in the game as ammunition. So pool balls, eating utensils, and like in the scene, doll parts. The best and funniest way to use one is to collect teddy bears and use them as ammo to take out anything you come against.
They really nailed the tone, look and feel of the Fallout world with this show. From the use of stimpaks, to Max carrying the oversized duffle bag (over burdened), to the vault decor, to Lucy going over her "S.P.E.C.I.A.L." stats, etc.
I have been a Fallout fan since the very first game rolled how ever many years ago. This show is SO spot on with practically EVERYTHING! The shape of the TV...the commercial for sugar bombs cereal (a food item in the games) Grognak the barbarian playing on the TV (found in the games as a comic book)... and that's just the first 3 minutes! There are so many Easter eggs and references that I honestly couldn't process them all on the first watch. They did a great job on this show...your gonna love it!
I loved that they have the Junk Jet. That weird canon that shoots whatever junk you have in your inventory.
@@nimz8521 EXACTLY!
So much detail in this show. I love it.

NOT LIKE THAT!
The show takes place after the games and while there's references to items and places and characters from the games the story is completely new and original, but very much in the spirit of the games.
So glad you're doing this series! Walton Goggins is a scene stealer in this, and I can't wait for this amazing adventure to continue!
Video game healing, video game dialogue, video game violence, video game quests, video game side quests. LOVE IT. Funny and kinda terrifying at the same time.
Lucy does so much with just the two words "Okey Dokey".
That first scene now has so much more context and emotion for me after I completed the season.
What next Bethesda?
"But there is one they fear. In their tongue...he's DOVAHKIIN!"
So long as they do it like this (set in the universe, but not directly drawn from it) I'd be all in to watch that!
I decided to give this show a chance once I found out it's another Jonathan Nolan show. I loved Person of Interest and Westworld. He's also teaming with his wife Lisa Joy, who wrote some episodes for a show I absolutely adored called Pushing Daisies before also working on Westworld with her husband. I'm about a month and a half behind the curve since I prioritized watching other things before finally diving in. It hasn't fully hooked me after just the 1st episode, but I'm willing to watch the whole season before I decide if I want to continue.
"I don't know if they're good guys or bad guys, but I like em"
That's the brotherhood of steel in a nutshell.
So glad you took on this show. Your Expanse reactions were must-see for me. And yes, there is more coming of the vault 33 survivors, including fork-in-the-eye woman, Stephanie Harper.

"Pineapple watch." Righto, I'm going to love this watch-through! I have played two of the games (they are FUN), Fallout 3 and 4, and I absolutely love the combination of deeply upsetting and ... don't know how to describe it other than chaotic, kitchy silliness. It's a weird combo to be sure, but I can't get enough of it. Cheers from the middle of Canada!
The actor who plays Lucy’s dad is Kyle MacLachlan, who is best known for his work with director David Lynch on the show Twin Peaks (1990-1991, 2017) and the movies Blue Velvet (1986) and Dune (1984) where he played the same role Timothy Chalamet plays in the new movies by Denis Villeneuve. All are highly recommended watches - the original Dune maybe around the time you react to the new one once it’s more widely available on streaming, but the other two are much better titles. And deeply, deeply weird.
Ok pineapple watch definitely made me laugh!
So the show at the beginning takes place in 2077. It's a retro future. 50's aesthetic but with some super advanced tech like the robot servants you saw. Also why all the songs are old as well. It's pretty sweet world honestly.
Pretty sweet if you´re a straight white middle-class conservative man, just like in the real 1950s. The universe is (partially) a satire on that 50s culture after all.
@clarkmichaels822 as far as I'm aware this world doesn't have the racism that our own 50's had.
@@gamingeagle19 It does even in prewar times of the setting but not the same way as our world in every regard as it seems to be mostly racism in two ways.
Partially there was minor racism in the class structure to a degree but not overt as upper class discriminated against lower class more just because of power imbalance than just because of skin color though it did happen. It was more individuals or small groups rather than wide or open societal racism so it usually fell under the radar.
Prewar larger scale societal racism related to skin color was more or less more often based on if you come from a country suspected of being communist or the enemy and the mark of the foreigner or a drain on real American's. So it was mostly against Chinese American's or those with clear communist country heritage.
It wasn't perfect but there certainly seemed to be less. Plenty of patriarchal sexism in the workplace and some implied homophobia. But again this mostly is in post war terminals and notes and such and nearly no racism is found in those entries that I know of.
8:21 Is that a dentist joke? "It's what's inside that counts ... you gotta have all your teeth" 😁
Behind the scenes, the actress for Lucy was told that her character should be a blend of Ned Flanders from The Simpsons and Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation, except in a nuclear apocalypse. That's why she keeps saying "Okie-dokie!"
Super happy you ae doing this show. When you wrapped up Galactica, I was going to suggest this to you!
"This is brutal."
Me: This is Fallout.
When you set gore effects to "on." 😮
war never changes lol
Had a guy complain that the show "leans more on gore than story".
@@Dark__Thoughts Sounds like he's never played the games before. Or paid attention to the show for that matter, lol.
@@exploringandstargazing I said the same and they said they played Fallout 3. I replied that it is weird how he went through the game without noticing the gore. He then argued that the show focuses more on gore than the story, "that's all". Someone else chimed in and said the show shouldn't have focused so much on gore because it is a TV show, not a game, to which I replied "image a live action adaptation of Dead Space, but they remove all the gore".
I honestly don't understand those people. It's literally part of the franchise, just like the humor, and removing it would just piss off the fans as it would remove part of the core of what this franchise is.
The pineapple joke actually made me laugh.
"flip 'em the bird as you're flying by..." Funny enough, those flying machines are called "Vertibirds" as they are VTOL, Vertical Take Off and Landing
Okey dokey! ❤
Ella Purnell is a treasure of this series with her Okey dokey and beautiful brown eyes.
Fearing a situation is a normal human response. Being a hero is overcoming that fear.
I have watched a bunch of reactions to this, it seems nobody has mentioned or noticed (or is it just me) that the introduction of the three characters is a homage to "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly".
Anyhow, like watching your reactions, especially liked the Galactica reactions, I think youre gonna love Fallout.
The first Fallout, back in the 90's, has the distinction of being the only computer game that had me in tears as the end credits rolled.
Fun fact: Lucy is Jinx’s voice actor in arcane!
The bombs dropped Saturday, October 23, 2077; 9:42 AM. Fallout takes place in an alternate history where the microprocessor was never invented, and nuclear power became all the rage. it is sometimes referred to as "Retro-futurism" because it is based on paintings and artwork from the 50/60s of how they viewed the future. The show takes place in 2296, about 9 years after the Fallout 4 game takes place.
I love the Star Wars painting/poster in the background 👌🏻
"Oh no, what a waste of pickles!" 😆 You are the best. 🫶
Idk if someone mentioned already but the actress Ella that plays Lucy, also voices jinx in the arcane series
Fun fact, that weapon that fires the baby doll leg and the scissors is actually a real weapon you can get in the games. It's called the "Junk Jet". In the games you can pick up junk. The junk gets broken down into its component parts to repair stuff like weapons and armor. The junk jet doesn't use conventional ammunition. Instead, it uses random items from the junk section of your inventory.
"Never quote me on anything" Angela 4/22/24
ive seen a lot of reactions and one thing i can say i notice is the reminder on everyone face when all the bombs are dropping and the follow up of "my worst nightmare", especially knowing that humanity at the moment is as close as ever to having this situation become an actual reality.
Just a quick shoutout to you (and your wonderful editors)--ATLA, BSG, and now Fallout, it's been such a pleasure to vicariously watch these great shows for the first time again.
In the fallout lore, these bombs weren't made for giant explosions. IRL during the cold war with Russia our nukes were made for power and initial destruction. That's why our nukes blind us for hours. However in the fallout lore, these bombs weren't made for massive destruction, instead they were made for radiation. These nukes don't have enough power to blind people, they just have massive massive amounts of radiation.
"I hit myself with a curling iron, I'm a crying little bitch" Seems like a strange kind of self flagellation but you do you Angela.
And, yes, I believe you will like this show. I know I did.
Never noticed before, but the "shadow" that your figures make with the blue light looks really cool
Don't worry, you're going to see a lot of Walton Goggins in this show and he absolutely kills it...figuratively and literally!
