TV Trailer Thursday

A whole bunch of trailers for upcoming streaming shows were released this past weekend, and I’ve been waiting for a free day to share them all with you. That day has come! So prepare yourselves for my thoughts on these various upcoming shows!

First up is the trailer for the new Fallout TV show. It looks like Fallout, that’s for sure.

I love the Fallout games, so I’m definitely going to be watching this show. But I don’t really like this trailer. I feel like this is a poorly made trailer. It doesn’t do a lot to establish the world or the unique elements of the Fallout world. It has a ton of recognizable Fallout elements, for sure, but I feel like they could have been framed better in a first trailer, to hook general audiences onto this one. We fans know the concept and recognize the stuff, but what will general audiences make of this trailer?

Anyway, Fallout the show comes to Amazon Prime on April 12.


Next up is the second season of the Halo TV show, a show I actually very much enjoyed.

This one looks good. It shows off a lot of Halo stuff, but it’s a second season trailer, and we already know what’s going on. This trailer successfully teases some cool space stuff, and some cool drama and the like, along with a ton of alien and energy sword action. So I’m in. I liked the first season. Granted, I’m no Halo maniac. I don’t know the lore or demand authority to the games. So I’m in for season two!

Halo season 2 comes to Paramount+ on Feb. 8.


Next is the third season of Hilda! I love this cartoon!

I didn’t know Hilda was getting a third season! So seeing this trailer pop up was exciting news. I have no idea the Hilda release schedule. Let me go look real quick. Jeez louise! Season one and season two came out in 2018 and 2020! And there was a film in 2021! It’s been many long years and one pandemic recovery since we had new Hilda! Well hot damn, bring on the new season! This show is so much fun and so adorable! I highly recommend it for people of all ages.

Hilda returns to Netflix for season three on Dec. 7…holy cow! That’s today! How exciting!


Lastly, a trailer I also randomly stumbled across, Carol & The End of the World.

I like this trailer. I like this look and feel. A dumpy, middle-aged woman gets to be the star of a show for once. And it’s an end of the world show, so that’s neat! Martha Kelly is great. I loved her in Baskets. And this looks to be a good showcase of her talents. I’m definitely looking forward to this one and hope it holds up to its excellent trailer.

Carol & The End of the World comes to Netflix on Dec. 15, so next week. Here’s hoping!
