I'm Impatiently Waiting For Fallout Season 2 By Calculating The...

Fallout Season 2 begins December 17, and we're so excited it feels like we've been huffing Jet. We're going to Vegas, baby: the location of the best Fallout RPG (and one of the best classic RPGs of all time), and we're ready to see what Sin City looks like 20 years after the events of Fallout: New Vegas, which is when the Fallout show takes place.

We're also curious if we'll see some familiar faces. Fallout: New Vegas is packed with interesting and memorable characters, and if I were a betting man I'd wager a few chips that we'll see at least one or two people (or mutants) we know from the games appear in the show.

But which characters from Fallout: New Vegas are most (or least) likely to appear in Fallout Season 2? Here are the odds as I see them.

We know for sure Mr. House is in Fallout Season 2—he's shown in the teaser as the pre-war Mr. House, played by Justin Theroux, and in the trailer as the post-war Mr. House, a digital face on a TV screen. It wouldn't be New Vegas without him.

But didn't Mr. House die in some playthroughs of Fallout: New Vegas? You can kill Mr. House in the game (I sure did), but that could probably be written around for the show. The post-war scene from the trailer might be a flashback to a time after the war but before the events of New Vegas, right? Or who knows: maybe there was a backup of Mr. House's brain on a hard drive somewhere, and in the years since the end of New Vegas someone restored it to the Lucky 38. That Mr. House is pretty good at beating the odds.

In Fallout 3 I played a bad guy, and as a bad guy I didn't like hearing bad things said about me on the radio, so I found the DJ, Three Dog, and killed him. You can't kill the DJ in Fallout: New Vegas, though, because he's not actually alive to begin with. Mr. New Vegas is a voice on the radio created by Mr. House, not a real person—though that voice is played by a real person: legendary Vegas crooner Wayne Newton.

It feels pretty likely that Mr. New Vegas will be heard at some point in Fallout Season 2: Wayne Newton seems like he'd be game for just about anything, and even in his 80s he's still performing both in Vegas and around the country. I think there's a decent chance he reprises his role.

(Three Dog was replaced by an intern, by the way. She wasn't happy about it.)

I'd love to see more chatty ghouls than feral ghouls in Fallout Season 2, and if you were
