Oh boy. If Avellone showed mercy in his first article about the Fallout show, he sure as hell didn’t show much in part 2 of his critique. He keeps talking about the show as providing entertainment. He also mentions minor things he liked, but I get the sense it’s more out of politeness and professionalism than anything else, especially when he essentially calls it shoddy craftsmanship at the end. Oof! It’s a good read, and I recommend you all head over to his site and take a gander. However, if you like the show, there might be a few hard “truths” to swallow.

Chris Avellone, one of the writers who worked on Fallout 2 and Fallout: New Vegas finally gives his opinion on the Fallout TV show with an article named Fallout Apocrypha: TV Series Review Part 1. What is interesting here, on top of this legendary writer giving his thoughts on the show is that it’s supposed to work as a continuation of the Fallout Bible – the ultimate lore compendium, written by the man himself.

He is far more lenient on the show than I ever was, but it’s still an interesting take on it, especially since it’s coming from him – without the fear of ruining any prospect gigs with Bethesda. I highly recommend giving it a read.
