Based on the novels by author Hugh Howey, Silo is off to an intriguing start. Yet the question remains, will Silo amount to anything meaningful? After two episodes, that raise more questions than they answer, its hard to tell. So far, what can be clearly enunciated is a quality back story. A story that's akin to Plato’s Allegory of the Cave, with a dystopian, almost cyber punk setting, in an underground, end of the world, style bunker. A strong cast back up, the so far, elaborate story and setting. Like the story itself, the characterisations have a subdued quality about them. This is due to this underground societies desire to keep hidden its past, rather than see it revealed. Finding out too much, can have fatal consequences. In summary, intriguing, creative and if not entirely original, certainly a clever variation, on a theme. It will be interesting to see if the writers can take this, so far, complex tale, somewhere meaningful.

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.

**Silo** is a gripping dystopian thriller that follows humanity's last survivors in a massive underground bunker, where strict rules dictate their lives. **Rebecca Ferguson shines** as Juliette, a mechanic determined to uncover the **secrets of the Silo**, leading viewers on a suspenseful journey filled with unexpected twists and dark revelations. The show’s **haunting visuals** and slow-burn mystery keep you on the edge of your seat, and with **Season 2 set to premiere on November 15, 2024**, fans are eagerly anticipating the next chapter. Perfect for anyone who loves **thought-provoking sci-fi with a thrilling edge.**
