Apple TV's Best Sci-Fi Series Lands Perfect Rotten Tomatoes Return

Silo's third season has earned a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes, continuing an upward trajectory after Season 1's 88% and Season 2's 92% positive reviews. Based on Hugh Howey's Silo trilogy, the series is set in a post-apocalyptic future where society survives in massive underground silos.

Season 1 largely aimed to uncover a murder in the silo, Season 2 expanded the world to question why the silos were built and who can be trusted, and Season 3 draws heavy inspiration from Howey's second book, Shift. Christine Persaud gave Season 3 a positive review, noting a tonal shift: "More so than the first two seasons, this one is like a mash-up of elements from Severance, Paradise, and Fallout, delivering a fantastic, post-apocalyptic sci-fi tale that isn't entirely original yet still intriguing." Collider's Tania Hussain also praised the season: "Three seasons in, Silo somehow still finds new ways to surprise.

While some mysteries can collapse under their own weight, especially with an ensemble this big, the show manages the opposite.
