Excellent Fallout fan fiction of what life would be like inside a vault. Focuses on grim drama and semi-realism over humor and irony, which is a shift in perspective from the Fallout games that shows how versatile that universe really is. I understand the author of the Wool-series that Silo is based on has to deny any relationship to Fallout for copyright reasons. (Though he wink-wink admitted he played the first …

Simply great storytelling. And though the visuals quickly get repetitive due to the setting, it's great to see. Giving it a 10 for now, and unless the final few episodes are horrible, I won't be changing my rating to anything less than a 9.

I think I'm done with this show after Season 3 Episode 1. To echo the words of the late Bernard, "I know the who, but I don't know the why, and I don't fucking care." We've done the amnesia thing already. I don't have any desire to sit and watch our FMC catch up to where we all are after two seasons, while all of the characters I got attached to over the past two seasons, get sidelined for the !@#$ing Sims, nor do I …

Lots of really stupid stuff in this program, but the first two seasons were interesting enough to get me to come back for the next episode, overlooking the stupid stuff. The repeated overt homosexuality is offensive, but I do understand that it is required by law to include this offensive content in every new program now (I never used to care about such things one way or another, but this constant unwanted force …

I like the AppleTV show 'Silo' but whoever is editing that show has to clean their monitor because god damn the entire show is just constantly brown. Shades of brown, hues of brown. at best you get hints of beige. Bro come on, we're past this as a society
How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 268 public posts we collected about this series and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post). A second AI pass checked every statement against the posts it cites; anything it could not match was removed, and code removed any statement with quotation marks, numbers that are not in the posts, or unattributed claims about people. The split is counted from the posts’ own ratings. Generated Oct 13, 2026. Method
Critics, per Wikipedia
For the first season, the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported an 88% approval rating with an average rating of 7.7/10 based on 69 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "With deft writing, awe-inspiring production design and the inestimable star power of Rebecca Ferguson, Silo is a mystery box well worth opening." Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 75 out of 100 based on 20 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews. Richard Roeper of Chicago Sun-Times wrote that the series "holds our interest with intriguing characters and effective twists and turns", and took note of how Silo "shifts gears through a number of genres, from…

Reactions
60 of 277 · most liked firstSlow Horses, Silo, Shrinking, and Severance are all good, so if it’s an Apple show that starts with S, I’m in.
positive · AI labelView post →Silo? What’s that, a show about grain? Sorry, sounds boring, not interested. And I’m going to block anyone who replies to tell me it’s about something different
negative · AI labelView post →So sorry I'm going to have to wait for more SILO. It's one of my favorite shows, and it's definitely my favorite show set in an underground silo.
positive · AI labelView post →Paradise....Silo.....Fallout.....there's never been a better time in history to be a tv show about people living in a bunker
positive · AI labelView post →We’re crafting SEO keywords so artisanal and bespoke that we have learned the true name of HBO Max’s Station Eleven adaptation is “10-Part Silo Replacement Sci-Fi Series.”
neutral · AI labelView post →Silo Season 2 is off to a great start. I love their approach to telling a complicated series of books. @hughhowey.com is a genius and this adaptation does his world justice. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-featur...
positive · AI labelView post →Silo is a spectacular show. I have watched all the bunker dramas (obviously) and it's the best by far. I like where the final season is headed...
positive · AI labelView post →I for one actively want to see Bluesky turn into a Silo* *a place to discuss the newly released season 2 of the Apple TV science fiction series, "Silo", starring Rebecca Ferguson
neutral · AI labelView post →Hey Netflix and Max- I wasn’t willing to give SILO a chance until I heard Apple was giving the show a chance to tell the entire story. Do with that information what you will.
positive · AI labelView post →Silo is a show about living in an underground apartment complex. Paradise is a show about living in an underground suburb. Because I am a housing nerd, I called creators of the two works to ask them about density versus sprawl in a post-apocalyptic world. My story: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/04/b...

neutral · AI labelView post →enjoying Silo hugely but also think it'd be a much funnier show if they kept everything as is but made every character have absolute hams for thighs, to account for all that constant going up and down the stairs
positive · AI labelView post →Like, you want a streamer that will *commit*? Apple TV. Sugar got a second season. Silo got three. For All Mankind got five and a spin-off! I felt good jumping into Widow's Bay because there was a high chance of more coming.
positive · AI labelView post →thankfully I've now gone home to my wife (actress Rebecca Ferguson in the TV series "Silo")
neutral · AI labelView post →only have the season three finale of Silo left to watch and I'm so stressed about it that I'm hyperventilating slightly and procrastinating on putting it on, which to be clear is the highest compliment I can give a TV series
positive · AI labelView post →Inspired by the renewal of Silo for seasons three and four, I wrote about why I think Silo is already one of the best science fiction television series ever and how Apple TV+ is fast becoming a dominant force in human-centric sci-fi mbh4h.substack.com/p/please-wat...
positive · AI labelView post →Silo (Series, 2023 - )
neutral · AI labelView post →The transition from the Severance premiere to the season finale of Silo Embrace the chaos 😏 Apple - Thank You for elite TV Series, the double feature what an event #Severance #Silo
positive · AI labelView post →Dude, The Silo is a TV show, not something we are supposed to recreate in real life.

neutral · AI labelView post →New series of #silo #appletv good so far . Highly recommend . 👍
positive · AI labelView post →got twenty minutes left of the Silo season 2 finale and might I just say, to my brethren who have watched the show, a humble: aahhhhhhhhh
positive · AI labelView post →Finally caught up on SILO Season 3. Holy shit what a show man. Cinema 🙌
positive · AI labelView post →ICYMI! #Apple has officially renewed its hit sci-fi drama #Silo for season three and season four, which will conclude the adaptation of the story based on the book series.
neutral · AI labelView post →Caught up on Silo and if you haven't watched Silo it rules. Last week, Rebecca Ferguson built a bridge for 40 minutes. This week, Tim Robbins had a whole monologue about good tape and bad tape. Seriously, the best sci-fi show on TV.
positive · AI labelView post →Silo is good but Severance is the best and most original series I've seen in 2024.
positive · AI labelView post →I love the third season of Silo (AppleTV). If the first two seasons were "The Pledge" and the third is "The Turn", then the fourth and final season, next year, could be "The Prestige". 🤞 There's definitely the potential for the series to end on a high note.
positive · AI labelView post →unclear what I was expecting from a TV show called Silo but hot damn I'd love it if the people there would leave their silo once in a while
negative · AI labelView post →Started an apartment inspired by the series #Silo yesterday while I watched #Arcane ⚙️ I'll never have enough of this vibe of content.
neutral · AI labelView post →i am not to it yet but it is cool as shit to learn that a friend we have played a show with has a song in this season of SILO
neutral · AI labelView post →I keep wanting Silo to be a better show than it is.
negative · AI labelView post →Watching Silo finally. Great show! Distracted by one character doing some mind-bogglingly bad baby wearing
positive · AI labelView post →okokok my break is over, I decided to space out the seasons because it's so rare for me to find a new show I genuinely love (NO RECOMMENDATIONS), season three of Silo and the beautiful Rebecca Ferguson here I come :)
positive · AI labelView post →Am I the only one watching this show “Silo” on Apple TV? season 3 is coming soon and I’m definitely ready. If you like Paradise, you just might like this.
neutral · AI labelView post →I just finished S2 of Silo, a show I didn’t expect to like and ended up enthralled by (thank you everyone who recommended!) I’ve been told to watch Fallout next as a quasi prequel… but the pilot was super violent. Has anyone watched the whole season? Is it all like that? PS watch Silo!
positive · AI labelView post →Really not the most important thing here, but quickly after the (much more important) "whoa, Susan Collins is corrupt" reaction, I thought "is that the Colin Hanks evil* trillionaire from Silo?" *Evil? Or more of a pawn? Not clear at this point in the show, and no spoilers from book readers please.
neutral · AI labelView post →I know we all “hate” Apple, but Apple TV doesn’t miss: Mythic Quest Severance Foundation Silo Ted Lasso Slow Horses The Morning Show Loot The Gorge Argylle
neutral · AI labelView post →You know what's an underrated SciFi show? Silo. Don't hear about it much, but it's very good and I hope they continue into season 3, as its getting so interesting!
positive · AI labelView post →Happy #Silo day! Season 2 starts today, and I think people who liked the first are going to be really pleased with the new episodes. The premiere opens with one of my favorite sequences of the entire series so far. And Rebecca Ferguson remains fantastic, obviously. My review:
neutral · AI labelView post →Today's recommendation is the three-book "Silo" series: Wool, Shift, and Dust. Now a series on AppleTV+, the books start out the same, but get very different as they go. As great as the TV show is, I prefer the books and highly recommend them. A dystopian future story unlike any other. #Books
neutral · AI labelView post →Silo is absolutely the best show about duct tape on tv
positive · AI labelView post →Thinking about "Silo", the dystopian series where the IT cabal actually runs everything
neutral · AI labelView post →Apple TV Plus’ originals are bomb. Silo, Foundation, Severance, Morning Show, Ted Lasso, Servant, See…all good shows and very well done.
neutral · AI labelView post →The final episode of Silo season 3 pretty much shifted (in a good way) my opinion of the entire series.
positive · AI labelView post →The brutal Silo season finale is a series high point.
neutral · AI labelView post →Silo is back! And it's firmly the Rebecca Ferguson Show.
neutral · AI labelView post →need a new show to watch while rowing. should i watch apple tv's SILO, the sci-fi show about people who live in a silo (?)
neutral · AI labelView post →Cor! The series finale of #Silo on Apple TV is a gut punch — it’s been a slow burn series, but what a chillingly brutal crescendo. Roll on series 4!
positive · AI labelView post →I had an appointment cancellation and settled in to watch this week's episode of SILO, and holy shit billionaires and AI. I really feel like everyone should be watching this show. It's a canary in the coal mine scenario (or canary in the Silo, as it were).
positive · AI labelView post →I'm watching the series "Silo" and I have a very big problem now : (He's an engineer. For the outcasts. With a big heart. I'm screwed).
neutral · AI labelView post →I love severance. It’s such an interesting show. Also Silo and Foundation are fantastic.
neutral · AI labelView post →Streaming series that are filmed in the dark. I’m looking at you Silo. If I could. But I can’t. Since you are unlit.
negative · AI labelView post →This weekend, Apple will let you watch anything in its TV+ library. I want you to consider spending that time with Silo: redeem-tomorrow.com/watch-silo
neutral · AI labelView post →Okay but hear me out, Silo is an amazing show
positive · AI labelView post →Silo is my favorite thing on TV right now. This isn’t surprising considering the Silo series is my all-time favorite book series. The additions and adjustments made for the show are great, and only enhance the source material. @hughhowey.com, congrats. Your success is so well deserved.
positive · AI labelView post →Tv show called “Silo” but the original quote is “there are only 9 missed meals between mankind and anarchy” by Alfred Henry Lewis (1906)
neutral · AI labelView post →How do you spot/know AI-generated/"vibe coded" software when you see it?. A couple weeks ago, I saw a cool video on YouTube. Hugh Howey, the guy who wrote the *Silo* books (and is executive producer on the Apple TV adaptation) had made a writing application for writers, and everything about it looked awesome, especially the price tag. Not only was it free, but it was open source as well. I installed it, and I shared it to a writing comm. I expected to get at least one thanks for spreading the…
neutral · AI labelView post →Instead of a documentary, how about an excellent series on AMC/Hulu, “Dark Winds.” The Native American culture is superb! Also, some other great series on Apple TV, “Silo,” “Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed” and “Pluribus.” Sometimes, we just need to escape into excellent fiction.
neutral · AI labelView post →ICYMI, Silo is back! The first episode is basically a Rebecca Ferguson one-woman show. Pity you can't see more of it
