Review by GameAndWatch

Silo

1/10

Holed on a minute

Okay, watched the first episode and it's a great well written pilot, that leaves you wanting more. Laying out enough to grab your interest.

I plodded on with the series, but it takes a dive very fast. Into something so completely generic I just lost complete interest, and I couldn't tell you where that was. Perhaps by episode five, who knows.

It's a pseudo mystery drama, with again totally unlikable characters. I thought it was done well at first, and the writers were in control. There's a pretty typical 'engineering' episode, where the main protagonist fights the clock to save the day. It's okay.

You are strung along by the mystery of the hole, or and the conspiracy stuff. Yeah I do want to know how they came to be there, and for why. But it really needs to up its game if I'm ever to go back and sit out the rest of it.

Not sure what's up here. Severance gets by on absolutely zip all story and is oddly captivating. Foundation was dumbed down and fiddled with to make some generic tripe. And as for this, I'd get more fun watching an old episode of the A Team.

You need likeable characters in a show. And room to explore ideas, or let the show and viewer breathe a bit.
