Fallout season 2 is something truly S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Building on the foundations of an already brilliant first season, it expertly fuses the serious backdrop of nuclear-laced political tensions with the franchise's inimitable brand of gaudy, retrofuturist humor.
Yet, its penultimate episode introduces us to the backstory of Vault 32 Overseer, the eyepatch-wearing Steph Harper. It's here where the Prime Video series drops its first real payload of mediocrity.
