Silo was a show I recently caught up on season one. Based on the Silo trilogy of novels (Wool, Shift, and Dust) by author Hugh Howey.
Last month, the Apple TV+ series was renewed for a third season and a concluding fourth season. Giving it time to wrap up and finish the three books.
After watching the first series not long ago, it wasn't too hard to get back into this dystopian future where a community exists in a giant underground silo comprising 144 levels.
Rebecca Ferguson stars as the lead, as an engineer who becomes embroiled in the mysteries of its past and present.
Joining Ferguson, Rashida Jones, David Oyelowo, Common, Tim Robbins, Harriet Walter, Avi Nash, Rick Gomez, Chinaza Uche, Shane McRae, Remmie Milner, Alexandria Riley, Clare Perkins, Billy Postlethwaite, & Steve Zahn also star.
Both seasons received positive reviews from critics, particularly for the world-building, production design and Ferguson's performance. Apparently though Ferguson may be a little less visible in the third series. Whenever that may land. As Apple TV+ sure have their far share of series on the go.
The much acclaimed Severance just returned as Silo concluded. This followed an almost three year await between seasons.
So where did Silo leave off? SPOILERS BELOW!
Walker works with Knox and the other rebels to use Bernard's camera to send him misinformation. They trick Bernard into sending the raiders below and transferring all rebels up top, after which Pete sacrifices himself to blow up the stairs in between.
The up top deputies side with the rebels after receiving Billings's message via Sims. Patrick agitates the citizens into a mob that demands answers from Bernard. Lukas tells Bernard what he's learnt and resigns, which causes a despondent Bernard to make Sims his new IT shadow, handing over the vault key and password.
Sims and his family enter the vault, but the Legacy says only Camille can stay. In Silo 17, Solo tells Juliette about the safeguard, a pipe that can pump enough poison to kill everyone, and how it can be stopped. Juliette uses the firefighter suit and returns to Silo 18, which is seen inside and celebrated, but she shows a message warning them not to leave.
Juliette enters as Bernard is leaving, and they are locked in the incinerator as it fires up.
In an apparent flashback in Washington, D.C., a woman named Helen questions a new congressman about the possibility of the US retaliating against Iran for detonating a dirty bomb on US soil.
Could season three act as a prequel season? That is something I would be keen to watch. Also I am getting a little tired of the underground vibe.
Whatever season three maybe, it's 100% confirmed for this growing in popularity Apple TV+ series. Big year ahead for this streamer!
