Prime Video has moved the premiere date for their most anticipated show, Fallout, up by a day.

The new premiere date is set for April 10 at 6 PM PT, moving from April 12. The release format also changes from the original weekly drop to an all-episode drop.

      Kind of feels like they are dumping it. Wednesday release and all episodes at once, seems like a strategy for the numbers to look better in the first weekend.

      I want this to be good. And I think there’s enough variety to the content that they have plenty of creatuve license to take the story and characters where they want to go. It’s not like they can fuck it up so bad, like by having Master Chief take off his helmet, or by having Julia kill Vicious, or pick your atrocious adaptation example and put it here.

        It’s been a few days since this comment, but I think now that the review embargo has lifted and the premiere has happened, it seemed to be more of a strategy to take advantage of the positive press to build some momentum. They got good feedback at a few screenings at various festivals, and the reviews have now been revealed to be largely positive. So maybe they wanted to shorten the time between reviews being published and for people to actually watch it.

        And they also got the news that California has approved some tax breaks for filming season 2 in California, so it sounds like they’re probably going to officially greenlight the second season soon.
