Apple TV dystopian show returns with third season.
Today, 3rd July, sees the return of the critically acclaimed Apple TV sci-fi series Silo, with its third season, continuing the story of a dystopian society surviving deep underground. Created and executive produced by Graham Yost, the series is an Apple Studios and AMC Studios collaboration, based on the bestselling dystopian novel trilogy by Hugh Howey. Silo stars Rebecca Ferguson, as engineer Juliette Nichols, and she serves as an executive producer. The series also stars Steve Zahn, Common, Harriet Walter, Alexandria Riley, and Chinaza Uche.
Season Three follows on from the major events at the end of Season Two, where a silo erupted into rebellion, and Juliette almost met her end. The final episode also introduced a second timeline into the mix – before we left the series, new characters Daniel Keene (Ashley Zukerman) and Helen Drew (Jessica Henwick) were seen discussing the beginnings of what might be a political conspiracy.
Critics and audiences alike responded positively to the second season, and it has a 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences have had to wait patiently for Season Three, the previous season having ended some 18 months ago. Fans are surely hoping the new series will continue to provide answers to the questions asked over the course of the first two seasons, whilst revealing a lot more of the second, historical timeline.
Silo Season Three will be ten episodes long, with a weekly release schedule rather than a full-season drop, allowing the audience plenty of time between episodes to speculate and discuss the ongoing story. Episodes will air every Friday. You can watch the new season, and catch up on the previous seasons’ episodes, via Apple TV on Apple devices, smart TVs, gaming consoles, but only with an Apple TV+ subscription.
