I just finished watching the first season of a remarkable television series on Apple TV: Silo<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I say remarkable because it achieved for me the near-impossible: From the very beginning of the very first episode, I cared about the protagonists. I could identify with them, root for them. Including those who didn’t make it.<\/p>\n

I shall try very hard not to spoil the show for those who have not seen all ten episodes yet, but…<\/p>\n

It’s like Fallout<\/em>, except that it’s even better. Fallout<\/em> is great. I loved the games, I love the TV show. It captures Fallout<\/em>‘s quirky cynicism and it truly feels like part of the same game universe.<\/p>\n

Like Fallout<\/em>, Silo<\/em> also depicts a post-apocalyptic world. There is plenty of mystery. Unlike Fallout<\/em>, there is no quirky humor in Silo<\/em>. It’s more serious, and also more mysterious. In Fallout<\/em>, we know right from the onset what caused the devastation. In Silo<\/em>… let’s just say we know a lot less, and we may not even know what we don’t know.<\/p>\n

I can’t wait for season 2 now. If they can maintain the quality of the show, the storytelling, the characters, the visuals… Damn, I sound like some stupid know-it-all TV critic, so let me just say that I liked the show. I wonder if Silo ever gets turned into a (preferably open-world) computer game.<\/p>\n<\/fb:like>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
