I would hope so, they can't just end it like that after the first season.

Phew. I'm not surprised - show's been a smash hit in every circle I personally frequent - but considering how much I actually liked the show and am looking forward to s2, there was always that chance the universe would conspire against me.

I googled a couple days ago; he's in his early 80's, but still performing / touring. Shouldn't be a long shot to get him to come back, unless he flat-out hated the experience or something (stands to reason that a smash-hit Amazon show will have more clout / money to convince him than the original game did).

If they do land him again, I hope they make the radio a recurring feature in s2 and not just a one-off bit / cameo - have Lucy occasionally tune her Pip-Boy to Radio New Vegas to get some news updates.

Funny enough, outside of Power Armor/The BoS, Season 1 doesn't have two of the most iconic designs from the Fallout universe with the Super Mutants and the Deathclaws.

It's gonna be dope as fuck to see them in live-action with a big budget.

Between Last of Us and Fallout, it's pretty nice to see games being able to make the jump to another form of media aside from books. Shows that if the directors and writers actually care about the source material (even though Fallout did change some things, it mostly sticks true to it), they can have some success with it.

Now if only they could stop butchering the ones that make the jump to movies.

It's also fertile ground for preexisting character appearances in a way that s1 wasn't. They'll probably steer away from overdoing it since they'll want to make their own story with their own characters, but I'd be surprised if they didn't throw someone in. If I had to pick a character to bet on making an appearance, it'd be Marcus; I can see him showing up suddenly as a way to trick both Lucy and the newcomer audience with the old 'ahh, big scary mutant, shoot it shoot it oh wait he's actually friendly and well-spoken.'

And after having seen the whole first season, I now trust these writers to handle the lore / characters respectably. So I'm not opposed to seeing latter-day versions of characters of Cass, Veronica, or Arcade, and how they're dealing with whatever state New Vegas is in at the time of the show.

Never really cared for the games, I preferred Elder Scrolls series, but the show is really good. Glad to see it got renewed.

It'd be amazing if we got to see The King.

Maybe they should get Austin Butler for it

The King's an excellent suggestion, wish I'd thought of that lol. Perfect addition to the show in terms of Fallout-brand campy humor (especially for franchise newcomers), not to mention being a great way to introduce New Vegas culture.

I think Amazon was caught off guard regarding how successful this show was going to be. The marketing was kind of non-existent and Amazon released the show 2 days earlier than their initial release date because of the good word of mouth it was getting from critics. When the show started exploding, all of a sudden people started seeing it on their social media sites like youtube and twitter (x). I honestly think Amazon accidently hit a gold mine of a show, probably why they renewed season 2 so quick as well.

I blame the massive success of Stranger Things season 1 as the reason Netflix started becoming so cutthroat regarding their shows. The only other show that was able to overthrow Stranger Things in terms of viewership was Squid Games, but Stranger Things was the one show that boosted Netflix subscription like crazy.

New Vegas in general is just so perfect for this show. Between the major faction that dresses up like ancient Roman soldiers, Super Mutants who dress, act and talk like old grandmas, robot dogs and everything about the Vegas strip, I can't wait to see Season 2's take on the region.

I wonder what ending they're gonna go with. Or if they're just gonna leave it ambiguous and say New Vegas was gonna collapse no matter what

Assuming they're going to be respectful of the New Vegas timeline (barring that unfortunate '2277 Fall of Shady Sands' misstep), I have to imagine that there's still thousands of NCR citizens living in the Mojave, who are either still loyal to the NCR or are maybe trying to restart their society (The New Nevada Republic?). Whatever the showrunners decide to be NV's canon ending will affect this heavily, but I can't imagine they'd go with a Legion canon ending (but you never know - Legion victory might explain why that shot of the Strip was dim and lifeless in the teaser).

I thought it'd be interesting if they polled the fans on which ending they'd choose, and then wrote based on that.

But I'm guessing they'll go with the most popular ending, which IIRC, is probably either Independent or NCR
