Why it matters: This TV series, in addition to other recent adaptations, has set an exciting precedent for future collaborations between gaming and the TV/film industry.
As per Amazon, the Fallout TV show achieved this viewership in about one month. The series is now on track to beat Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, another hit Amazon Prime release.
