11"Freedom Day" Morten Tyldum Graham Yost May 5, 2023 (2023-05-05)
In a massive underground bunker called the "Silo", a community thrives without knowing their history, as records were supposedly destroyed 140 years earlier, during a failed uprising. Sheriff Holston Becker tells Deputy Sam Marnes that he wants to "go out". Three years earlier, Holston and his wife Allison receive permission from her doctor to remove her birth control implant but they are unable to conceive. During this time Allison learns subversive beliefs about the Silo from fertility expert Gloria Hildebrandt, and helps IT expert George Wilkins explore a forbidden hard drive dating from before the rebellion. Allison tells a skeptical Holston that those in power are lying to them and that the view on Silo's screens of a dead outside world is fake; she offers as evidence that her birth control implant was not removed by the doctor, as she just removed herself. Allison declares that she wants to "go out"; saying these words is forbidden and the punishment is fulfillment of that desire. Allison promises to clean the Silo's external camera if the outside is beautiful. Following the Silo's Pact, Allison is dressed in an environmental suit and exits on her one-way journey. Silo residents watch Allison clean the camera and then collapse, seemingly dead. Two years later, Holston investigates George's death and meets Juliette Nichols, an engineer who claims he was murdered.
22"Holston's Pick"Morten TyldumJessica Blaire & Cassie Pappas May 5, 2023 (2023-05-05)
Holston learns from Juliette that George, her lover, collected forbidden historical relics. Upon learning that George and Allison worked together, Holston agrees to investigate and promises to send Juliette a signal when he finds something. A few months later, Holston leaves the Silo and is shocked to see that the outside is lush and beautiful like Allison claimed. He cleans the camera, takes off his helmet, and on camera appears to crawl to Allison's body before dying. Mayor Ruth Jahns learns that Holston left behind a statement nominating Juliette to be his replacement as sheriff. Juliette knows that George was looking for a door and tries to retrace his steps in the watery dig space underneath the Silo.
33"Machines"Morten TyldumIngrid EscajedaMay 12, 2023 (2023-05-12)
Mayor Jahns and Deputy Sam descend 144 levels to meet Juliette. Along the way, Jahns meets Juliette's estranged father, Dr. Pete Nichols and Juliette's engineer friend, Martha Walker, for opinions of Juliette's character. Despite the disapproval of Judge Meadows, head of Judicial, and Bernard Holland, head of IT, Jahns offers Juliette the role of sheriff. Juliette declines but changes her mind when she's given Holston's badge, which has the word "TRUTH" carved on the back. Juliette requests that Jahns allow the main generator to be switched off for repairs, which has never been done. At shutdown, the Silo's screens briefly show a healthy green view of the outside, though no one seems to notice this. With difficulty, the Mechanical team fixes the main generator. Before leaving for her new job, Juliette asks Walker to study a camcorder she found among George's relics. Marnes and Jahns confess their love for each other, before Jahns collapses with blood in her mouth.
44"Truth" David Semel Remi Aubuchon May 19, 2023 (2023-05-19)
Ruth Jahns is dead; Marnes believes she was poisoned, and that he was the real target because they drank from each other's water flasks. Bernard, as Mayor Pro Tem, swears Juliette in as the new sheriff. Juliette asks Marnes to help her investigate George's death, in return for her helping him investigate Jahns's death. Robert Sims, of Judicial, tells Marnes that Judge Meadows is ready to remove Juliette as sheriff but Marnes tells him to let Juliette quit on her own. Later, Marnes is attacked in his apartment. Juliette meets Lukas, a resident who spends late nights in the cafeteria. Juliette finds Holston's file on George but cannot find George's hard drive that Holston confiscated. In a flashback, Juliette leaves home at thirteen after the deaths of her mother, Hanna and younger brother, Jacob.
55"The Janitor's Boy"David SemelGraham YostMay 26, 2023 (2023-05-26)
Sam Marnes is found dead. Paul Billings, Judicial's original choice for sheriff, is made Juliette's chief deputy. Sandy, who works in the sheriff's office, tells Juliette to find Marnes's killer before Judicial picks a scapegoat. Juliette discovers that Doug Trumbull, who works for Judicial, planted evidence to frame resident Patrick Kennedy for Marnes's murder. Sims tells Doug that his father was supposedly a janitor but actually had a secret job that was crucial to the Silo's survival. Sims kills Doug before he can be arrested and Doug is posthumously blamed for Marnes and Jahns's murders. Juliette learns that Lukas has been studying the cafeteria's display screens at night to observe the movement of the "lights" in the sky, Silo residents being ignorant that these lights are stars. Walker shows Juliette that the camcorder's technology is more advanced than what is permitted in the Silo. Juliette retrieves one of George's relics in the hopes of reopening the investigation into his death.
66"The Relic" Bert & Bertie Aric AvelinoJune 2, 2023 (2023-06-02)
Juliette arranges for the relic to be found in Doug's apartment and uses it as an excuse to track down supposed relic dealer Regina Jackson, who turns out to be George's previous lover who bought relics for him. Sims learns about George's connection to the relic and formally confronts Juliette; Bernard accepts Juliette's claim that she didn't plant the relic but he orders her to stop investigating Doug's motives for murdering Jahns and Marnes. Juliette and Billings argue over her difficulty in trusting him and she reveals that she knows he has the Syndrome, a medical condition that should disqualify him from being a deputy. Regina tells Juliette that she didn't report George's hard drive to Judicial but she did tell "the man who knows everything" about it, after he threatened her loved ones. Regina gives Juliette a cherished relic she received from George: a children's travel book dating from before the Silo. While Juliette browses the book in her apartment, she is watched by a surveillance team that has numerous cameras all over the Silo, with equipment much more advanced than the rest of the Silo.
77"The Flamekeepers"Bert & BertieJessica BlaireJune 9, 2023 (2023-06-09)
Sims is part of the surveillance team and monitors Juliette's movements via the cameras. Juliette seeks out Gloria, who is being drugged on Meadows's order. Despite Juliette's offer to resign as sheriff, Meadows says she can't lift the order. Billings confronts Juliette when she neglects her duties; she tells him about her investigation into George's murder and he decides to cover for her. Lukas tries to kiss Juliette but she rebuffs him. Bernard tells Juliette that he fears Meadows will move against them and encourages her to find a way to control Meadows. With her father's help, Juliette is able to question Gloria and learns that she is part of the Flamekeepers, a secret group dedicated to remembering the past, whose members are being systematically killed. Juliette's mother befriended Flamekeepers but Juliette's father obeyed orders to prevent them from having children. Juliette realizes that surveillance cameras are behind the Silo's wall mirrors and retrieves George's hard drive from where Holston hid it in Gloria's room. Sims' raiders arrive at Gloria's room to apprehend Juliette, who isn't there.
88"Hanna" Adam Bernstein Jeffery Wang & Ingrid EscajedaJune 16, 2023 (2023-06-16)
Judicial searches the sheriff's office for the hard drive but cannot find it. Juliette retaliates by using Billings' knowledge of the Pact to temporarily arrest Sims. While Sims is in custody, Juliette searches his office and finds files on Hanna, Walker, and Shirley Campbell. Hanna's file confirms that Judicial's surveillance cameras are how they knew that Hanna had built an illegal multi-lens magnifier; Hanna and Juliette had believed that Pete told Judicial. Juliette reconciles with Pete, and he tells her that Hanna's subversive behavior and suicide were a response to Jacob's death, which Hanna believed the magnifier technology could have prevented. Juliette is unable to access the hard drive's content; Lukas is too afraid to help and Judicial's checkpoints prevent her from reaching Walker. Bernard finds Juliette and reveals himself to be the true person in charge of the Silo and responsible for Jahns' and Marnes' deaths. Bernard and Sims arrest Juliette, take the hard drive and fraudulently claim that Juliette has asked to "go outside". Juliette jumps off the Silo's central stairs to escape with the hard drive.
99"The Getaway"Adam BernsteinLekethia DalcoeJune 23, 2023 (2023-06-23)
Juliette escapes and evades Judicial's cameras. Billings investigates Juliette's apartment and finds the children's travel book; he keeps one page but burns the rest. Juliette breaks into Sim's apartment and uses his computer to access the hard drive, on which she finds a video message George made for her. Bernard arrests Lukas and learns the hard drive's serial number, which he uses to find Juliette's location. Sims and his raiders rush to the apartment but Sims's wife allows her to escape. Juliette gets Patrick's help with Danny, an IT contact, to access the hard drive. She watches the rest of George's video, in which he tells her that he loves her and that she needs to find the door underneath the Silo. Following George's advice, Juliette, Patrick and Danny watch a video from a past cleaning, which shows a lush green landscape with birds flying outside the Silo.
1010"Outside"Adam Bernstein Fred Golan June 30, 2023 (2023-06-30)
Juliette has Danny broadcast the outside footage to the Silo but the broadcast is quickly shut down by Bernard. Billings is questioned by Sims on his condition and Billings later tells his wife that they are making an exception so he can be sheriff. Juliette escapes to Mechanical, where she talks to Walker before being arrested. Bernard offers Juliette a deal: if she will go out willingly, he will tell her what happened to George and ensure that Mechanical will not be punished. Bernard shows Juliette footage of George jumping off the stairs to avoid interrogation. Bernard destroys the hard drive but later recovers the disc, after Juliette mentions a door underneath the Silo. Bernard sentences Lukas to the mines. Juliette goes outside and her helmet's display shows the same video footage of a lush landscape from the previous cleaning. She realizes the deception, discovering that the reality is the desolate view on the Silo's screens. Because Walker has arranged for the heat tape on Juliette's suit to be of exceptional quality, instead of dying, Juliette climbs out of the crater that surrounds the Silo and goes out of view of its residents. She sees dozens of similar craters, each with a silo, and a ruined city on the horizon.

111"The Engineer" Michael Dinner Graham Yost November 15, 2024 (2024-11-15)
In a flashback, the revolution of Silo 17 takes place and its population escapes into the outside world. In the present, Juliette breaks into Silo 17 by climbing through the corpses of its dead inhabitants littered outside the entrance. Juliette explores the Silo's upper levels to find it entirely abandoned while the lower levels had flooded. She finds that the bridge leading into the IT department has been destroyed, so she builds a makeshift bridge which collapses after she gets across. In a flashback, young Juliette starts her new life on the Mechanical level, where she helps sort through trash from the upper levels and befriends Shirley. After struggling with her new position, she impresses the other workers by fixing a broken toy and begins working under Walker. In the present, Juliette continues exploring and follows the sound of music to the locked vault door in the IT department. After Juliette fails to open the door, a man on the other side warns her that if she tries again, he will kill her.
122"Order"Michael Dinner Fred Golan November 22, 2024 (2024-11-22)
Bernard watches Juliette's suit camera from inside the vault and sees her approach Silo 17 before it cuts off. As Juliette refused to clean, Bernard understands that her sign of defiance may lead to revolution. He places the deputies under Sims' command and sets a mandatory curfew to control the Silo's population who are asking questions about Juliette's survival. Bernard tries to convince Meadows to aid him as he prepares to give a speech and has Walker and her ex-wife Carla locked up for smuggling Juliette the tape that sealed her suit. Shirley starts riling up people on the lower levels to demand answers while Knox tries to convince her otherwise, wanting to avoid a revolution and protect his people. Bernard gives his speech to the Silo and claims that the IT department produced a new tape that allowed Juliette to survive longer, but remains adamant that she is dead, and Meadows endorses him. While the majority of the Silo's population seemed pleased with the explanation, Shirley remained unconvinced and organizes a secret meeting outside curfew. After Bernard thanks Meadows for her help, she demands to be given an environmental suit with good tape in order to go outside.
133"Solo"Aric Avelino Cassie Pappas November 27, 2024 (2024-11-27)
In Silo 17, Juliette learns from the man in the vault, "Solo", that dozens of Silos exist and that her actions may cause a revolution in her Silo. Solo gives Juliette food and suggests that she can use a firefighter's suit to return to her Silo, but the fire safety equipment is in a flooded area. Juliette requests Solo's help to access the flooded area; he first refuses but changes his mind and exits the vault. In Silo 18, the worker Teddy is arrested for writing the graffiti "Juliette Lives". Sims offers an incarcerated Patrick a drug that will help him forget his deceased wife in exchange for a favor and recruits retired raiders to send down to Mechanical. Shirley leads some protestors to demand Teddy's release, but Patrick throws a firebomb at the deputies, and in the resulting chaos the rookie engineer Cooper is killed. Pete meets a woman who hopes to win a lottery that will allow her to have a child and defies orders not to remove her birth control by performing the procedure anyway. Billings interviews everyone present during Juliette's arrest and brings his report to Meadows, stating that Juliette never asked to go outside.
144"The Harmonium"Aric AvelinoSal CallerosDecember 6, 2024 (2024-12-06)
With Solo's help, Juliette builds an air pump system to help her through the flooded levels and collects a firefighter suit. Solo tells Juliette about the outside world from before and struggles with anxiety about leaving the vault. Knox shares with Shirley his belief that their Silo has had multiple rebellions, which were blamed on Mechanical because of their ability to shut down the Silo. He also requests to speak with Meadows, who agrees to meet. Sims becomes suspicious of Bernard's relationship with Meadows and fabricates a movement to demand Meadows' impeachment. Meadows allows Lukas to protest his sentence and after their conversation reduces it to five years. Billings investigates the riot in Mechanical and learns that the body of the instigator has disappeared, and Judicial has claimed Cooper's body. Bernard poisons Meadows, and before she dies she tells him that on the hard drive Juliette stole, there's a coded letter from Salvador Quinn, who was head of IT during the rebellion 140 years ago. Knox, Shirley, Walker, and Carla arrive at Judicial, where Bernard has set up Meadows' body to frame Knox and Shirley for her murder. Sims riles up a crowd and sends it after them.
155"Descent" Amber Templemore Jenny DeArmitt-StranDecember 13, 2024 (2024-12-13)
Solo asks Juliette to repair a water pump, because the water level is rising and will reach IT in ten months, but Juliette insists she needs to return to her Silo immediately. Juliette suspects that Solo is lying about his identity, and he reacts angrily to her questioning. Juliette finds a usable suit helmet but collapses from injuries. Bernard is aware that Sims fabricated the movement against Meadows and denies him the role of Bernard's shadow but makes him Judge to replace Meadows, which frustrates Sims. Sims' wife Camille helps Knox and Shirley temporarily evade the mob. Rick Amundsen, the new head of Judicial, has Carla arrested but Knox, Shirley, and Walker are able to bypass the blockade and travel to the lower levels. Bernard has Lukas fix Juliette's hard drive, revealing hidden connections in the Silo to the outside world and a coded letter by Salvador Quinn to his wife. Billings and deputy Hank track down Patrick, who offers to tell Billings the truths about the Silo that he's learned.

Production

Development

The project's development was announced as a feature film at 20th Century Fox, which entered negotiations to acquire the self-published e-book Wool by Hugh Howey on May 11, 2012. [8] Five days later, 20th Century Fox acquired the rights, with Ridley Scott and Steven Zaillian among those attached to produce. [9] On November 28, it was announced that J Blakeson was in negotiations to write and direct. [10] It was then announced on June 5, 2015, that Nicole Perlman would rewrite the screenplay, with Blakeson no longer involved in the project.

Reception

Critical response

For the first season, the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported an 88% approval rating with an average rating of 7.6/10, based on 68 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "With deft writing, awe-inspiring production design and the inestimable star power of Rebecca Ferguson, Silo is a mystery box well worth opening." [34] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 75 out of 100 based on 20 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [35]

Richard Roeper of Chicago Sun-Times wrote that the series "holds our interest with intriguing characters and effective twists and turns", and took note of how Silo "shifts gears through a number of genres, from conspiracy thriller to big-picture social commentary to police procedural to end-times romance". [36] Lucy Mangan of The Guardian opined that the "world-building is meticulous" and "the story is equally thrilling". [37] Vanity Fair 's Richard Lawson found the show to be a "feat of production design", adding that "Ferguson—in all her stern command—lends the series a necessary heft". [38] Barry Hertz of Globe and Mail also picked up Ferguson's performance as a "standout". [39]

Conversely, Brian Lowry of CNN believed that the "inherent mystery [...] feels stretched to the point of strained, exacerbated by characters that don't consistently pop". [40] The Hollywood Reporter 's Daniel Fienberg also praised the world-building and Ferguson's performance, but was critical of the performance of Common, whom he termed "the weak link in the cast". [41]

For the second season, Rotten Tomatoes reported a 96% approval rating with an average rating of 7.85/10, based on 42 critic reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "Rebecca Ferguson's intrepid hero seeks answers while the rest of Silo's ensemble capably holds down the fort in this superb sophomore season." [42] Metacritic assigned a score of 80 out of 100 based on 12 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [43]
