Amazon’s “Fallout” season 2: Bears and bulls

Staff Reporter Dec 04, 2025

Two weeks from now, the second season of Amazon’s “Fallout” show drops its first episode. Releasing for streaming on Dec. 17, season 2 promises to be a fascinating and exciting romp through the ever popular New Vegas wasteland.

Unlike the previous season, the second season will be releasing one new episode every week until Feb. 8. With the returning main cast of Ella Purnell, Walton Goggins, Aaron Moten, and Moisés Arias alongside antagonist Kyle MacLachlan and guest star, Macaulay Culkin, season 2 looks even bigger and better than the last.

If you haven’t seen the previous season, now is the perfect time to give it a watch in preparation. Though the episodes are between 45 minutes to an hour, there are only eight to watch through, so there’s plenty of time to finish before the new season starts.

Of course, there is no rush either as the show isn’t going anywhere. If you have seen it and just need a refresher, there’s a simple summary right here on the Thunderword. No matter how you choose to watch the show, remember that what happens in New Vegas, stays in New Vegas.
