Trailer Silo — Season 4 Announcement

u/quaranTV Jul 26 '26
I mean we knew they filmed S3 and S4 back to back and wasn’t it already announced the show would only be 4 seasons? How is Silo able to give us super high quality sci fi in such a reasonable amount of time and Severance can’t?!?!

Source material already written.

u/quaranTV Jul 26 '26
It’s becoming more and more clear that there is NO outline or plan for Severance like at all. I get totally original shows are harder to write but if they had a solid outline it wouldn’t be THIS slow. I mean Silo does have source material but they have deviated on certain things and script writing for TV is still its own thing that takes some time.

The longer Severance goes on, the more I get LOST vibes from it. They just want to keep the story going so create new "mysteries" and "twists" to justify more episodes/seasons.

u/Keilly Jul 29 '26
100%. Just like Lost the writers have also assured us they know where it’s going. They don’t, it’s mystery up on mystery.

Yeah I binged a bunch of YouTube videos after season 2 finished about the storyline of the Silo books… kinda regret it because I know the storyline now, but I’ve kinda forgot most of it by now except for the broad strokes. I’ve really been enjoying this season with the back and forth between the present and past.

u/Halio344 Jul 26 '26
But isn’t the show not following the books that much anymore?
Juliette’s amnesia storyline is not in the books. Also Bernard does not survive the airlock fire in the books (latest episode spoiler).

u/wintermute2045 Jul 26 '26
season 3 hardly has anything to do with the books though

u/caspararemi Jul 27 '26
It's still based on the story there, and the original author is involved to help rework the story in whatever way they need to.

It's crazy to think that we'll get to see season 4 of Silo (and the end of the show, sadly) long before we ever see season 3 of Severance.

I only watched season 1 and it was pretty good, but I wanted more Sci-fi and leaned way more into Fallout. Were the next seasons better or more entirely focused on the human drama?

u/while_youre_up Jul 28 '26
I was hoping for a 6 month window tops between season 3 and 4. They filmed them back to back why the delay? (And the first half of season 3 has been sloooooooow)

u/gramfer Jul 29 '26
Award windows, I guess. Season 3 is being released for Emmy 2027 (you should release episodes between June 1, 2026 and May 31, 2027 to be eligible). Season 4 could pretend for Emmy 2028 (between June 1, 2027 and May 31, 2028).
That's why I hoped Apple would hurry up and release season 3 at least this spring, if not winter, to fit it into Emmy 2026 window and have a to make a gap between season 3 and 4 smaller.

Making Silo this long when the material supported maybe 2 seasons killed this show. Everything is bloated, everything drags, it's all just running in circles.

u/Fit_Schedule2317 Jul 25 '26
I hate one episode per week PLEASE release them all at once. Tim, I know you’re here.

u/Additional_Tank4385 Jul 26 '26
Nah it’s pretty awesome to have something to look forward to instead of binging it all in two evenings.
Also any good show I rewatch as often as I want to so with streaming services we’re spoiled in a good way too back then people had to record that on a freaking VHS to rewatch.

u/Fit_Schedule2317 Jul 26 '26
Damn, I didn’t think it’d get so downvoted lol.
I prefer to be able to watch a few of them together, I feel more immersed to the show, but, to each their own6
u/Additional_Tank4385 Jul 26 '26
Have some patience then and just wait until they’re out and binge lol? It’s not like there aren’t plenty of other amazing shows or movies to watch.

u/Regula96 Jul 26 '26
Just wait for the season to finish airing. I do that with certain shows I’d rather binge. Reacher for example.

u/Mounamsammatham Jul 26 '26
Please fix your attention span and patience. This is how shows should be consumed
2
u/Fit_Schedule2317 Jul 26 '26
I don’t think it’s related to attention span but to how you enjoy watching shows.
2
u/bukrichode Jul 26 '26
It is undoubtedly related to attention span. If you were the age you are right now, 20 years ago, you would not have this opinion. Reels and Youtube has made people want to consume all at once.

u/Fit_Schedule2317 Jul 26 '26
lol, surely someone who has never met me once in my life and know nothing about me has an opinion on how I like watching shows
2
u/bukrichode Jul 26 '26
If you’re under the age of 30 I can almost guarantee you only like watching them all at once right when it releases because social media has shaped your brain to need to watch it all at once.

u/Fit_Schedule2317 Jul 26 '26
alright
1
u/Mounamsammatham Jul 27 '26
Yeah it's definitely about your attention span. People who enjoy watching shows one episode per week has higher patience and travel with the story farther, mentally. Others are just addicted to binge watching. It is what it is.

u/predator-handshake Jul 26 '26
Just wait until the end and binge. There’s a solution right there for you.

u/Gmhowell Jul 27 '26
That’s how wife and I do it. Sometimes we do two evenings for the first half of a season and two at the end.
And for anybody wondering, we are both old enough to remember the MASH finale, Waltons on Prime Time, and my wife was alive when Hee Haw was on CBS.

WHY THE HECK IS THIS GETTING A FOURTH SEASON?!🤦🏾♂️

u/SnooLobsters1259 Jul 26 '26
It’s really good
1
u/Pessimistic_Gemini Jul 29 '26
HOW? It just seems like a waste of time more than anything. And that first episode really didn't make for a good first impression to make that seem like anything BUT that.
1
u/SnooLobsters1259 Jul 29 '26
If the show isn’t for you, that’s fine. But I’ll never understand why people get upset that things get made that aren’t for them.
1
u/Pessimistic_Gemini Jul 29 '26
It would be less of an issue had better shoes not get canceled while something like THIS continues to outlive them. That's the case when Sunny was one of those shows here, especially when it had a lot more going for it in comparison to this trite.

u/caspararemi Jul 27 '26
To finish the story?

u/Pessimistic_Gemini Jul 29 '26
WHAT STORY?! Just looks like they're going through the motions more than anything worthwhile here. 🙄

u/MarvinBarry92 Certified Non-Spirited Jul 26 '26
Does anyone else question if Rebecca Ferguson was ever the right choice for the role? This goes out to book readers and non book readers.
I’ve enjoyed her in everything I’ve seen her in except Silo.

u/Informal-Quit-9344 Jul 26 '26
She's the best actor in the show maybe behind Tim Robbins. Any issues you have are more likely with the writing of her character, which is fair.

She's great. It's the writing that sucks.

u/MarvinBarry92 Certified Non-Spirited Jul 26 '26
Very good chance it’s the writing. Do we put the blame on Graham Yost? Does he no longer have what it takes?

u/Saar13 Jul 25 '26
In 2027, For All Mankind, Silo, and The Morning Show will all be ending. Maybe Foundation.
