Bait and switch? presenting interesting dystopia and mystery but 90% only melodrama?

First episode is out

I'm not too sure about it though as it sounds too similar to multiple other series where things are obviously not as they seem.

If they didn't change it much from the books than be prepared for rhe mistery to be a disappointment ;p

So if I were to guess the ending from the premise alone, not even the trailer. The outside world is completely fine and a haven for the rich few while they were in one big fallout vault experiment? Cool Face

Not even it being a old book and a creative story at the time would excuse adapting such a story these days Laughing

Watched the two episodes, pretty good high quality production stuff. Would just be predictable if the whole silo was just to power some bougie's hot tub.

I was thinking the same, it's either like The Island, or like The Village Laughing

Yeah competently put together mystery show. Unlike the garbage "From" turned out to be.
I'm hoping they wrap up the Silo book within this season instead of milking it and move on to the other books in other seasons but we'll see.

I have not started on this one yet, is it anything like Wool or have they gone off track and tried to combine all of the books?

Yep this show is pretty good, still watching lost *oh I meant From in background while I do other stuff. Pretty good examples of mystery/sci Fi stories, one written by an author, the other by Hollywood screen writers.

Any risk of it getting cancelled before the story is concluded?
Haven't looked up the ending yet, so I might give it a try. Just tell me if it's something else than either The Island or The Village. If it's anything like these 2, I won't bother Very Happy
