3.5/5 bottle caps
I'm through episode 3. As a person who enjoys video games, but never played this series, can you give me some background on these characters on the show.

So far I get there are factions, you have the ghouls, the steel company, the fallout shelter people, raiders, etc etc....

But do they ever give these characters more depth? Like what happened to Goggins little girl? Why is the dad so important to get back?

Is the main girl the person I would be playing as if I did play the video game?

Is the steel company's purpose just to keep the above ground people in check?

It just seems they hopped right into it and without having played the video game you really don't understand the characters.

I'll still finish the season, just was hoping for a bit more character development.

Just watched The Gentleman on Netflix. I really enjoyed it and hope to see a second season. I don't mind that it was a bit predictable at times, I thought it stayed pretty on topic and moved at a good pace. Well acted for the most part too

Not sure how Netflix keeps tricking me. We tried watching Eric and after 3 episodes had to turn it off. Just more of Netflix doing what Netflix does.

Season 3 of Outlaws just dropped on Prime, and I'll be catching up on that over the next few weeks.

Everything is completely opposite in the second half of it, though!

Good try! But Stevie Wonder could see the ending to this show!
I think I’ll be just fine not knowing.

Personally, I doubt anything will beat watching my actual local supermarket being featured in Fallout, but I just finished Ripley. Highly recommend.

My Son and I started watching Twisted Metal yesterday. I think we only have 4 more episodes of Season 1 to get through. Really cool show.

I've been watching iZombie before it leaves Netflix in August. I forgot how much I love this show.

"Sweet Tooth" on NetFlix just had it's third and final season drop and it was terrific, a most fitting finale.

I gotta watch the season 2 finale again as a refresh,but it is an excellent show.

Just finished watching season 1 of Gen V on Prime and I think it's on the same level as The Boys.

I felt I had to watch it before season 4 of The Boys and I wasn't disappointed. Give it a go!

They're working on the second season of "Gen V" now, but they had to rework some scripts having wisely decided not to recast one of the lead characters (Andre Anderson) after the actor who played him, Chance Perdomo, was killed in a motorcycle accident in March. He was only 27.

Just finished The Gryphon on Prime. It is a German show that kinda has Stranger Things vibes. I hope it gets a second season someday

Those About to Die on Peacock is really good if you liked Rome or Spartacus or anything like that.

3 episodes in and looking forward to the rest.

Whole season released this past week.
