Over the weekend, the Television Academy held the Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards, which honored the best in technical aspects of television. Fallout was nominated for 13 Creative Arts Emmy Awards. While FX shows Shogun and The Bear dominated, Fallout did walk away with two wins.

One of the wins was for Outstanding Music Supervision, which is awarded to those in charge of the music for a television program. The show’s first episode, “The End,” was submitted for this category, and its win is well deserved considering how strong the episode’s retro soundtrack is.

The second award was for Outstanding Emerging Media Program, which is an award for an interactive media experience that exists as a companion piece to a television program. In this case, it’s the website Fallout: Vault 33, which allows fans to explore the titular Vault featured in the television series and learn more about it and the vault dwellers that live within it. You can also venture outside Vault 33 and go to locations featured within the series such as Filly and Ma June’s.

With the Creative Arts Emmys done, all eyes are now on whether Fallout can score big at the Primetime event this weekend. But even if it comes up short of clinching any more awards, fans of the series will stick behind it as they eagerly await for the announcement of the second season’s release date.
