OT - Man, I’m struggling through Fallout season 2

[Seinfeld]

And this is coming from someone that loves the games, but I just can’t bring myself to give a 17 about what is happening with the Brotherhood of Steel or that dumbass snack party.

Ghoul is still great, but that’s about the only plot line that I find interesting. Am I alone? Better yet, anyone have other TV recommendations for getting through this snow and ice? I may give the new Spartacus a try next for the…. exquisite writing. Yeah, definitely the writing.

I'm not well-versed in the games (only played Fallout 3), it's like they are trying to follow too many storylines in every episode, and some of them are just dragging (like the snack party bit, as you mentioned). Meanwhile, ignoring things like how some people became ghouls while others did not isn't helping. That would help me understand the "world" a little better, perhaps. And I still want to know how Moldaver managed to survive until just the right time; meanwhile, Lucy's mom went ghoul? It's just interesting enough that I keep watching.

It's not a bingeable show imo.

Pluribus on Apple TV was recommended to me by the two people I trust to know my tv taste and they were right. Highly recommend it.

 

[Bulldog from Birth]

I watched Season 1. But I gave up at the end of that and didn’t plan to keep watching. Too strange for me.

Show Horses on Apple is really good. It's a British spy show with Gary Oldman.

Death By Lightning is a short Netflix series about the Garfield assassination, and Nick Offerman plays a semi fictionalized womanizing drunk Chester A. Arthur, and he's great.

 

[Ranchdawg]

We watched 3 episodes from this season. We haven't watched any more because we agreed it had turned into The Walking Dead.

Try Silo on Apple if you haven't already.

I’m just rewatching Andor. Still freaking amazing

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

The Running Man, the new one, was good. I have enjoyed The Witcher. Liam Hemsworth stepping in for Henry Cavill has been fine. The Rip with Damon and Affleck was very good on Netflix.

The second season of that is unreal.

The second season of that is unreal.

As good as any show has ever been

 

[Chesusdog]

Just picked Apple TV back up. They have a lot of good stuff and just acquired rights to one of my favorite authors.
Mythic Quest was a lot of fun; made by Rob and Charlie from Always Sunny and about a gaming studio.

Planned on starting Foundation next.

The Running Man, the new one, was good. I have enjoyed The Witcher. Liam Hemsworth stepping in for Henry Cavill has been fine. The Rip with Damon and Affleck was very good on Netflix.

I couldn't make it past the last season of The Witcher. The first season was okay, but 2 and 3 just vastly departed the story and the characters barely resemble their book counterparts and I cant reconcile that in my mind. Maybe if I hadn't read the books I'd enjoy it more.

 

[HailStout]

Despite the fact that the ending wasn’t what I wanted, I never enjoyed any television show more than lost. This was the scene where I went from liking it to being obsessed:



and holy hell the opening scene for the second season:

I really need to go back to Andor. I got sidetracked about halfway through season 1, and I just never made my way back to it. I definitely remember enjoying it up to that point, though

Andor is an incredible series. You won’t regret it.

Rewatching the first season right now. It’s great, like really great. That being said, the second season is in a whole different level. Definitely watch it. I would recommend starting over at the beginning of it has been a while. Lots of characters and a lot going on

I didn't read the books so I just take the story the show is giving.

Same for me (I've only read the first book). I haven't watched the last season yet, but enjoyed 1-3.

I second Silo. Great show. Added benefit is a bulldawg among the cast.

I liked season 1 but season 2 so far was worse. I've played the games some but I really didn't like a whole lot except semi open world rpg.

 

[Trojanbulldog19]

Any if yall watched king and Conquerer started to watch it the other night but got busy with family stuff and didn't try to sit back down and watch it yet

I enjoyed it. It's definitely worth getting back into.
