Maybe that's a first step for Elder Scrolls on TV ? :P

"I wouldn’t get too excited for this, as it is only the earliest of indicators… but what the hell, lets get a bit excited anyways.

According to Eurogamer, game developer Bethesda have filed a trademark for “an on-going television program set in a post-nuclear apocalyptic world.”

This would seem to point directly to an adaptation of the company’s much loved Fallout franchise.

Fallout is one of the most popular RPG series of all time and features the player navigating ‘the Wastes’, a version of America that has been blown to smithereens by nuclear warfare.

Or, to put it in another way, that “post-nuclear apocalyptic world” we know from the movies.

It’s important to note that filing a trademark is a long way from any sort of confirmation. Bethesda may be filing ‘just in case.’ But it is an indicator that the idea has at least flown around and that enough talks have taken place for some to ask for the trademark to be locked down.

If you are as big a fan of the series as I am, this is great news. A TV show set in the world of Fallout is a very appealing prospect. Under the right talent, the concept could produce something as successful as The Walking Dead, I’m sure.

And from the vast barren setting to the futuristic spin on 1960s designs, a network could have something visually striking.

For now though, lets just stifle our collective excitement until we hear more."

"Survivor : Fallout" :-p seriously though, might be interesting. just as long as the writing is good and they don't pull the Rock out as a Super Mutant, might even be cool. Throw Bruce Willis in there as the Wanderer or Curior, and you have a deal.

It sounds like it could be a great idea and would imo make a good TV series or film,but if it ever happens I hope they leave out the overly childish plot,and use a more adult theme.

The game was rated as an 18+,but then they ruined it by making the 19 year old character into a "kid" to everyone over that age,and the father was imo treating the 19 year old son like as if he was 5.

I don`t know at what age the US classes a person as an adult,but by UK standards it  came over very childish to me.
