About Fallout
Based on one of the greatest video game series of all time, Fallout is the story of haves and have nots in a world in which there's almost nothing left to have. 200 years after the apocalypse, a peaceful denizen from a cozy fallout shelter is forced to return to the surface and is shocked to discover the wasteland waiting for her.
How to get through Fallout faster
- Skip the intro. Roughly a minute and a quarter per episode adds up to about 20 minutes across the whole run.
- Bump the speed. At 1.25× the total drops to 12.2 hours; at 1.5× it's 10.2 hours.
- Watch with a comment section. A running conversation pinned to each moment makes long stretches feel shorter, and it's the reason TalkAbtIT exists.
