Silo - Season 1 - series
We do not know why we are here. We do not know who build the silo. The world outside our sanctionary is dead.... we don't know blah blah blah when we go outside but that day isn't today.
What's this series about?
A civilization (10k people) lives in a silo underground. Their history is unknown and life isn't much different from what many face today. Different levels, different rights. Where you are born in where you most likely will die unless you are punished and sent to the "mines" or sent out to wipe the window. Who to trust? It's hard since everyone deals with the same problem: an unknown past, an unknown future, being controlled, spied on and afraid to say what's on their mind. Opinions are not appreciated and where you go, follows your shadow.
Shadow? Indeed, everyone has a shadow and this is the person who should learn from you (by following you) how to do your job if you are no longer around (gone, dead, sent out...). This shadow is rarely a free choice which doesn't make life easier and is good for more anger, envy, intrigues, madness, and murders.
Just like we know from Brave New World and some other films (where you own nothing and are happy and equality is preached) the same system is followed by the Silo. You own nothing and you are born in a certain level which stands for a certain job, Once dead all the stuff should be given back (by the family) and will be reused, repaired or is thrown away.
We follow Juliette Nichols (during the first episodes most we learn to know die or are sent outside). She's the best engineer the Silo has. When Sheriff Holston decides to go out to follow his wife and find out if she is right he wants Juliette (who lives 144 levels lower) to replace him and search for the answers both like to know.
Juliette is a fighter she doesn't easily give up and seems to have a lot in common with her mom. As Judicial arrests her and claims she said she wants to go out the entire Silo watches how she walks over the hill without cleaning the window. It is here Juliette sees the landscape and realizes they are, were not the only ones living underground.
The silo is worth watching even if you are no big fan of SF. There's plenty of drama and life isn't much different from most people's lives. Some parts look like allees not different from what we see in the old city centres. Although there's no daylight it does look in a way natural at times even cosy.
If you are used to be brainwashed by saying the same phrases this series is perfect for you. Don't worry, religion might no longer exist but the Silo has their own bible and live by its rules. If you like to bing watch you can with season 1, season 2 has thusfar only 5 episodes. I would say watch it and you will be updated about what the future might look like (or not since Armageddon always seem to happen/start in the USA).
The Silo is based on tha trilogy (yes, people books) written by Hugh Howey

film review silo steemexclusive club75
It seems to be a very interesting Sci-Fi film to watch because it seems that the community or the place in that world that they are living into is a product of a past "earth-ending" event and that they are the ones that survived if not the people before them and that they are just offspring of those survivors that continued to live on but following a different government structure if you can call it a government which is far worse to be around living into because of its different system for some important reason or another.
I might consider to watch that film the soonest time. I am not in the Apple ecosystem and the only movies I would watch are those that I download via torrent. I also went bored watching movies because there is no good way at the moment to watch such because I am not considering buying a Television Miss @wakeupkitty.
My father wants the Smart TV but its costs a lot considering that I want to buy stuffs that I need first like a better smartphone and a new laptop because my laptop has lines above the screen and it affects my viewing needs already which is why it caused me to not watch movies even with this seven-year old laptop.
I might purchase these things as soon as crypto prices would appreciate a little because I know that my father needs a new TV as well even though we are not subscribed to a cable TV. As for a Smart TV, I also do not know how it works except it can be hooked/connected to an internet source of Wi-Fi and let the user watch YouTube videos.
I also have not used Netflix ever or any streaming services because I seem to be contented enough from free videos of YouTube and what I do here in Steemit but I guess that I am also missing out on what streaming services are showing. Anyway, thanks for the recommendation, I appreciate it Miss @wakeupkitty 😀👍

I watch films on my phone. It's easier plus possible in bed.
You don't need Apple tv or Netflix to see their films and series. There are streaming sites broadcasting them for free. No need to rehister either. The only minus can be that the sites' address will be changed if they are "caught". It's what they call "pirates" with us and we had it with radio and TV although today they all are legal and broadcast with us or from Luxembourgh.
Viki the app has Asian series a part is for free as well so no need to pay and the broadcasting thusfar is better than Netflix ever was (we shared it with the family but now they say that's no longer allowed even not if you live in the same home they send the message you don't share the same houshold 🤔)
I don't know if you can receive it or need VPN?
A smart tv can be great. I always wanted my own home cinema but like you I would buy a new phone first.
🍀♥️
A good and relaxed day.

Thanks for recommending the Viki App Miss @wakeupkitty I will try it when I needed it, it has been a long time really since I watched movies because the favorite actors and actresses of mine had now gone old which is why maybe I lost interest in watching movies, television, made for TV and stuffs.
My favorite to watch sometimes are the old National Geographic episodes, documentaries, Comedy movies of certain actors/actresses, and Pixel animation movies, sometimes drama based on again, if my favorite movie stars would be in the lead role.
The screen of my Smartphone is not good enough for me to enjoy watching movies from it nor the audio quality too. But if there are no means of entertaining myself just like after I had gone home and can't use my laptop, I used my Smartphone to listen to some music from YouTube, it was awful because I am used to listening to a better sound quality from my PC with Dolby and with FXsound application installed.
That is why when I listen to my Smartphone, something is missing which is the Hi-Fi sound quality that I get from the combination of Dolby and FXSound. You should try FXSound, it is totally free but only for PC users. However, A PC with Dolby Digital Sound with FXSound will give a better sound compared to one of each sound processor is absent.
Have a nice day now. 😀👍🌹🌹🌹
What is blacklist on Steemit, what is my offence that I am blacklisted.....
I don't think I am blacklist
I agree with this but as a counter-point I would say that I feel as though they are intentionally dragging the series out so they can get a lot of seasons out of this. If this is the case I think that this is a bad strategy on their part because as history shows, very few series can maintain their audience if the show becomes boring and repetitive. At the moment I am already kind of tiring of the rather intense focus on the political side of things but I also realize that this is a very subjective thing. Overall I think they are doing a good job maintaining the mystique and this is a very well-made series. I just hope they can keep the momentum going .
I didn't come to watching more episodes of season 2, will see if I can watch the 3rd today.
There's no need to watch 9 seasons. If it goes the same as with "New Amsterdam" I stop watching. That series I liked at first but as soon as they started with the covid nonsense and fake info lecturing I gave up. It all became too obvious. I would like to know how thise actors and the writers (cast) if still alive feel today about spreading fear. Most likely no opinion and the say "it was just acting" plus they got paid.
♥️🍀
Hi!:) I watched the first season, I liked it. I saw that there are already episodes of the second season, but I want to watch everything at once.:)
Yes, there are 6 episodes I believe by now. I will watch two at the same time so have to wait a bit.. or I watch season one again or something else in between. I haven't finished the Korean series Dr. Romantic yet (am at season 2, the intrigues continue). Enjoy the other episodes!
