It has a couple of very decent episodes, but as someone who is a big Fallout fan the show seems pretty underwhelming. It's like they wanted to lean into the grim darkness of the setting, so they decided to eliminate whatever vestiges of civilization there might have been (the Brotherhood of Steel being in a massive downward spiral as an organization and the whole Shady Sands things seemed like a copout for budget and storytellilng purposes). Not saying Fallout isn't a bleak setting, but it's definitely got more of an oddball humor to it that is generally pervasive through the setting, instead of the sprinkle of it we got throughout the show. I guess what I'm saying is that with something like this you have to really nail the tone, and they just sorta missed the mark on it.
