Hello Tomorrow! (2023)

"fallout" aesthetic ... less than engaging storyline thus fer

[6/10 · 17 February 2023]

I agree with another reviewer here that I'm pretty sure we're meant to be reminded of the "Fallout" video game series. Thus far after a few episodes it's kind of like "Fallout" before the occurrence of any global apocalypse having occurred, but it doesn't seem as if the show's creators are setting up such a calamity as a viewer expectation in this new AppleTV+ series. Unfortunately as yet the characters and storylines are less than engaging. Here's hoping we see improvement soon; the show is interesting to look at and the midcentury modern aesthetic combined with 50s sci-fi futuristic gizmos and technological advancement are appealing, but so far it's is lacking an interesting main motivating conflict or problem and it's hard to see where after a few episodes set-up such a major factor is suddenly going appear from.
