SILO – Review by Susan Granger

July 31, 2023August 3, 2023 Susan Granger Apple TV+, Common, David Oyelowo, Geraldine James, Hugh Howey, rebecca ferguson, sci-fi series, Silo, Tim Robbins, Will Patton

If you enjoy sci-fi thrillers, stream 10 episodes of the first season of Silo on Apple TV+. Based on a series of dystopian novels by Hugh Howey, it revolves around the inhabitants of a 144-story subterranean bunker built to shelter 10,000 people after an apocalyptic event left Earth uninhabitable. Designed with a huge spiral staircase in its center and no elevator, living space in the Silo is strictly stratified. Those in authority and the elite occupy the top floors; the white-collar labor force is in the middle; and the blue-collar mechanical workers are down below.
