The Fallout TV show on Amazon Prime Video was a massive success, providing a significant boost to game sales and easily securing a second season. That said, the popularity was 'immensely surprising' to showrunner Graham Wagner, as he explained to The Hollywood Reporter. Wagner also said the creators had talked about doing five seasons of the series, which looks more feasible now after all the positive reactions.

The popularity of the show is an immense surprise. We didn’t make this show for everyone. We made it for ourselves, and that was, an important part of approach. But you never know how that’s going to go.

We’ve talked about a billion seasons as a jokey way to evade the question because we don’t control that. So our hope is to end every season with a semi-satisfying, semi-open-ended kind of shape. Look, we’ve talked about three seasons and we’ve talked about five seasons. Given the success of the show, five is suddenly feeling a little more appealing. But the industry is a temperamental thing and we kind of have to go into each season being like, “This is our last.”

When will the second season of the Fallout TV show be released, though? Graham Wagner said everything is going as fast as possible, and many things like sets, assets, and visual effects are ready from the first season.

The internet has an interesting habit of making non-binding statements binding, so I’m hesitant to give a date that will be taken out of context and live on Reddit for a year or so. But we are going as fast as we possibly can, and we’ve got a lot of heavy lifting from Season 1 already done. We have sets, assets, visual effects, that are already done. We are hitting the ground running this season. We’re going to be pedal to the metal to get season two out as fast as humanly possible.

With that said, we'll likely have to wait at least late 2025 to see the second season, which will be set in New Vegas.

Immensely surprising? You put Walton Goggins into Fallout and aren't prepared for magic?

Good, just plan the story ahead and not make it as they go along which is the downfall of many shows.
