Review of Silo

Silo (2023– )
Starts well, gets slow and boring very quickly

Warning: Spoilers
There's a real problem with today's streaming shows. They have about a movie's worth of plot - around 2 hours - but they need to fill about 10 hours of streaming episodes. Since none of this is broadcast on the air any more, there are no restrictions on run times.

This show starts really well, the first two episodes are really good. But then it takes a nosedive. Whole episodes of 1hr+ pass with hardly any story development. There's endless scenes of people walking across rooms, pausing, looking at something, then saying something unimportant.

It's just endless. And I don't care what happens to these characters, they're all so unlikeable. There's maybe the bones of a 3-4 episode series here but as always it's been padded and padded and padded to fill 10 hours and it's so boring by episode 5 that I may have to just give up. Do better.
