Fallout on Prime

Has anyone had a chance to dip into this series yet? I just watched it through on several air travel legs.

I really enjoyed it

Past present and futuristic apocalyptical Sci-Fi.

It’s absurdly gory and has lots of little Easter Eggs throughout.
Walton Goggins crushes it as The Ghoul, and there are a ton of cool cameos, my favorite being Matt Berry as the voice of Mr Handy, and Erik Estrada as a cap hunter.

I've watched the preview, and even though I'm very much a science fiction person, my reaction was Meh.

...who've generally all had positive things to say about it. I'm looking forward to starting it even tho when I tried playing Fallout 3 I didn't get into it much, it's just not a gameplay style I enjoy.
