Season 1 covers the first 30 chapters of the book “Wool” – the book has 82 chapters

Line of Events

Men and women live in a giant underground silo with various regulations that they believe are in place to protect them from the toxic and ruined world above. Whether they’re exploring the stars, escaping dystopias, or making the world a better place, these women are what science fiction is all about.

Spinning this way doesn’t push or pull air

The fans on the floor in several episodes spin in the wrong direction, relative to the orientation of the blades. Featured on WatchMojo: Top 10 TV Shows of 2023 That You Need to Watch (2023).

It seems like they don’t have a long enough plot, so they’re trying to stretch out the episodes starting with the first season

The first few episodes were so good that they had me glued to my seat, but since then they’ve stopped developing the plot, they keep going into these obscure side stories that are supposed to connect you to a specific character and form a deeper connection with them, but fails miserably at doing so. You can afford three filler episodes in a row in a 15-20 episode season, but when you go with a 10 episode per season plan and have half of it eaten up by filler sideshows, it gets downright boring.

Edit: The above review was written after the end of episode 5, my faith in the show has now been restored after episode 7

My wife went from “OMG, a new episode of Silo is out, come on, you get the home theater ready, I’ll get the snacks ready” to “Hey, Silo is out, wanna watch it?” At this point, I’m not sure we’ll make it through the season, we’re one filler away from forgetting all about it.
