So I bought the Roks A&M ice cube set and it comes with a 6-pack ice tray with a pair of A&M logo's, state of Texas, and the Gig 'em thumbs up. I noticed all my Gig'em ice cubes went missing and caught my youngest son using them for his glasses of Coke. I asked him why and he said "Fall Out, it's great! You should watch the show."

And that was my weird introduction to this show and I just finished it yesterday and thought it was incredible. Fantastic world building. Loved Lucy and Boyd "the ghoul" Crowder and cracked up at Rappaport running from the mutated bear screaming "f***, f***, f***, f***!" Too bad he couldn't get to meet up with Boyd:

Clinton-Gore's slogan was Make America Great Again as was Ronald Reagans
I had to look at the Wiki to confirm because, like about 90% of the people under the age of 50, had no idea Reagan and Clinton used the phrase. It's most commonly associated with Trump and drives the TDS crowd nuts.

It was a slap at Trump and associated 'evil' big corps and it was a rolls eyes moment.


So would you say that scene triggered something within you?

I didn't take it as a dig on Trump but instead just satire about corporations. Besides as someone mentioned earlier having a mustache twirling villain(s) fits with the style of the show.

Also considering the time period this world is essentialy set to mimic , thats exactly the sort of phrase/slogan people in power would use. We've got to make america great, gotta fight the commies.
Some form of "our country is great" has probably been used consistently throughout human history.
The Romans were walking around saying "fac Romam magnam"

Anytime after the series wraps up is fine I think.

Yeah, on ones like this where it comes out all at once, we usually do spoiler tags for a few weeks to let folks trickle in, then it's more gloves off.

The show has been out for a month, definitely feel like we're safe on that front.
