Viewers have expressed their frustration over the newly released teaser for the third season of the dystopian drama Silo, with many claiming the series 'needs to end'. The Apple TV+ show, based on Hugh Howey's trilogy of novels, is set in a future where humanity lives in a giant underground silo spanning 144 levels.
The teaser, posted on X (formerly Twitter), features Rebecca Ferguson as engineer Juliette Nichols and warns that 'the truth will surface'. However, fans took to the comments to share their discontent. One viewer wrote: 'Season 3 already? At this point SILO is just stretching confusion into multiple seasons. Let's hope this time they remember the plot exists before episode 6.' Another commented: 'Ya this show needs to end. These streaming shows need to wrap up in two seasons like British shows. Tell the story and wrap it up.' A third added: 'Underwhelming and stagnant 2nd season, I'm not coming back for 3.' A fourth said: 'God please let this be the last season, I don't think I have the patience to wait for another season after this one.'
Despite the criticism, many fans expressed excitement. One shared: 'We are so back. This is an incredible show. Can't wait to see all the twists and turns.' Another commented: 'Silo MIGHT be my favourite of the sci-fi shows on Apple TV. I cannot wait for this.' A third said: 'Silo has been such a smart, slow-burn sci-fi gem; can't wait to see how they unravel more of the mystery.'
The series has already been renewed for a fourth season, which will be its final outing. When it first aired in 2023, it received positive feedback from critics who praised the world-building and Ferguson's performance. Development of a film adaptation of Wool began in 2012 but was shelved before being picked up as a series by Apple TV+ in May 2021. Silo season 3 airs on Apple TV+ on July 3.
