I’ve reached a point where I think I'm going to stop watching this show after Season 3 Episode 1. To put it like Bernard did, "I know who is involved, but I don’t understand the reasoning behind it, and frankly, I couldn't care less." We already dealt with amnesia as a plot device. I really have no interest in watching our main character try to remember everything that happened over the course of two seasons wh…

Silo feels like a sermon delivered from within a fortified space. The story rightly puts race at its core: Black performers are in positions of authority (played by Oyelowo, Common, and Uche) within a society that claims to have moved past racism. Walker’s decision to make the mentor character female, transforming them into a motherly figure, is an important feminist touch, providing Juliette with the kind of…

There's a considerable amount of foolishness within this show, yet the initial two seasons held sufficient interest for me to keep watching, choosing to disregard those flaws. The recurring depiction of homosexuality feels objectionable, though I recognize that it seems mandated by current regulations—a requirement to include such material in every new production. Previously, I didn’t really have strong feelings abou…

I would have rated the first season an 8/10. It was a captivating science fiction series built around a central mystery, focused on its characters, creating a sense of confinement, and filled with enough perplexing moments to keep viewers invested. There was an expectation that the second season would improve upon this foundation and reach a 9 rating. That didn’t occur. And after only two episodes of Season 3, it'…

The casting decision that brought Common into this series was seriously misguided; he doesn’t work at all. Frankly, his performances are awful. However, it isn't all bad because many other actors in the ensemble deliver strong work, which is enough to make sticking with the program worthwhile.

I find it really funny that AppleTV is attempting, even in 2026, to portray the rapper known as Common as a performer. He’s utterly lacking in talent, and the dialogue he delivers generates unintentional humor because of how evidently limited his intelligence seems to be. It's characteristic of Apple TV’s approach, which appears to prioritize showcasing performers with diminished intellectual capacity—seemingly due t…

This series seems to fare better than the initial novel did, though the second book provided essential background information that’s hinted at in the finale of season 2. It struck me as both inventive and melancholy. I'm eager to see if they can adapt the entirety of book 3 for television. So far, it appears the show has successfully built upon a solid narrative, incorporating certain aspects to enhance it. It’s defi…

I want to mention that the series is adapted from a book, and credit goes to the author for crafting such a wonderful narrative. As for the show itself, it’s not terrible; it holds some interest. However, it's unfortunately permeated with DEI and woke messaging. The presentation gives the impression that roughly 80% of the population is Black or people of color, which isn't reflective of reality since they represent …

This feels like a really strong piece of fan fiction expanding on the world of Fallout and imagining what existence within a vault might be like. It leans into serious drama and a sense of authenticity rather than relying on humor or satire, which demonstrates how adaptable the Fallout setting truly is. It's clear why the creator of the Wool series—which Silo adapts—has had to publicly state there’s no connectio…

**Silo** presents a compelling dystopian story centered around the final remnants of humankind residing within an enormous subterranean shelter governed by rigid regulations. Rebecca Ferguson delivers a standout performance as Juliette, a resourceful mechanic investigating the mysteries surrounding the Silo, and this propels audiences through a suspenseful narrative marked by surprising developments and unsettling di…

The narrative itself is exceptionally well done. While the scenery does become somewhat predictable because of where the story takes place, witnessing it is still quite enjoyable. I’m awarding it a score of 10 at this point, and I don't anticipate lowering that unless the last few installments are truly awful; otherwise, I expect to keep the rating at least a 9.

The television adaptation of Hugh Howey’s novels, Silo, begins with considerable promise. However, it’s still unclear if the show will ultimately prove to be substantial. After watching the first two episodes, which present more uncertainties than resolutions, it's difficult to say for sure. What is evident at this point is a well-developed backstory. The narrative echoes Plato’s Allegory of the Cave, set in a d…
