201: The Innovator 2025 December 16
(First watched On the one hand, seems like a bit of time has passed since Lucy and the Ghoul have been traveling a while and seem to be getting used to working together. On the other hand, seems like no time has passed since Norm is still stuck in the same room and hasn't starved to death yet.

So... what is Hank up to? Was his message to House? Considering how cultily dedicated to Vault-Tec all of Bud's buds seem to be, what's with him seeming to be working with a major figure outside of Vault-Tec?

The episode opened up at Novac, so right away we get into familiar locations from New Vegas even if not New Vegas itself.

This show has way more exploding heads than most shows I watch.)

202: Episode name 2025 December 24
(First watched 2025-12-26) I wondered what Norm's no-plan chaos would result in. Tricking them into thinking they were his underlings being put to a test... simple and efficient.

This season they're really dipping into the New Vegas well, but haven't done much significant with it. Oh, there's an NCR Ranger! Oh, there's some members of Caesar's Legion! But uhhh something's got to HAPPEN with these guys soon enough, yeah?

I'd forgotten I'd seen somewhere that Kumail Nanjiani was involved in this season, but he showed up right at the end there. Which makes me realize Macaulay Culkin still hasn't shown up, whoever he is.

203: Episode name 2025 December 31
(First watched 2025-12-31) OK, Macaulay is... a Legion dude. Who may or may not be dead after this episode, though I'd lean to Not since I doubt they'd have made such a big deal over him in the cast for a single episode?

Kumail is also out now. Maximus seems to take the Brotherhood like... a player like me. Appreciating the good they do but not so much the "kill a bunch of ghoul kids" side of them.

They're really playing loose with the post-New Vegas fate of the factions, but given we knew Caesar was dying anyway, the idea of the Legion splitting up over who should be next in charge makes enough sense. Having them literally next door to each other... that's a bit silly to believe.

Cooper Howard / The Ghoul continues to be one of the most interesting things to see. A man at vastly different ages with a lot of time and events in between changing his very nature. But as a viewer I'm always left unsure how much he's changed. How much of the good is still in there? How much of the "do whatever is necessary" has replaced it?

204: Episode name 2026 January 7
(First watched 2026-01-07) So Thaddeus impersonates Xander... this explains why they had to set things up with Maximus going out with one of Xander's spare power armors rather than his own.

I feel like the show is beating one particular point over the audience's head many many times so we can't possibly miss it. Various groups see the conflict in the world and come to the conclusion that the solution is to make it so they're the only group out there. Conflict solved forever! But of course in reality one party left to its own devices long enough will have internal divisions, so the hope of ever having One Group is a fool's quest. We're seeing this with the various chapters of the Brotherhood of Steel fighting. We're seeing this with Vault 32 and Vault 33 being in conflict over resources. We're seeing this with the two factions of Caesar's Legion.

We see deathclaws in this episode, and they're portrayed pretty impressively I think.

205: Episode name 2026 January 14
(First watched 2026-01-14) Escaped from those deathclaws relatively easily. Given that they seem confined to that section of the city, I wonder what keeps them fed and happy in there?

Pre-War continues to be some of the most interesting stuff. I don't know how many seasons they're thinking about for this show, but it seems like they'd naturally run out of stuff for that section first if things went on too long.

So the lady Howards are indeed frozen in the Vegas Vault that Hank has taken over.
