I cannot get enough of this series ! There’s something about the sets that draws me in to their world. I have to go back and re-watch episodes to get things I may have missed. Friday doesn’t get here fast enough!
Are you up to episode 7? It’s so tense!
@@DoublePMedia
Yes and as of now waiting for the next season!!!
Let's Go! This book series is Gold
Getting positive, yet not quite rave reviews
SO GOOD. Highly Recommended watch.
Have you watched the first 2 episodes? What did you think? Favorite character? Most tense moment? Biggest shock?
@@DoublePMedia yes. I watched both. Favorite character too soon to tell. Yours?
@@lunacascade1125 My book bias *may* be swaying me but Mayor Jahns or Deputy Marnes -- though another favorite book character hasn't shown up yet in the first 2 episodes
@@DoublePMediac’mon, tell us, who’s the other favorite book character of yours? 😊 My #1 favorite won’t be in this season because they aren’t introduced until the second half of Wool. My 2nd favorite should enter the show in episode 4, which has me very excited!!
@@falsenostalgia-shannon that’s a good choice you’ve made🥹. I would say I like all of them, Lukas, Bernard all of them have their merits
I just watched the first two episodes (finally). Apple has the best original series!
They spend the $ and make good shows!
Now that we have Silo the only other book adaptation I'm really looking forward to is hail Mary by Andy weir.
I've read The Martian, is Hail Mary good?
@@DoublePMedia
I think it's fantastic, I prefer it over the Martian but they are both good. If you plan on reading it go in as blind as you can.
This was a good recap. I obviously read the wool series but it's been awhile and this jogged my memory pretty good before I watch the show, i hope they stay faithful. There's always a mystery and he always gives you hope then takes it away, several times. I remember the whole section with solo, that's his name right, being really sad.
I enjoyed the first three episodes. Read the books years ago so forgot enough that I don't notice any changes they made for the TV series.
As we've explained on our continuing podcast series: they changed it from the book's "Oh damn, that just happened!" to the show making it "Wait, what just happened?"
1st 3 episodes are great!
hell yeah! Listen to our podcasts for our takes!
Is it a vertical snowpiercer?
Good call, but it’s more like a post apocalypse Game of Thrones (with a smaller ensemble)
So I spend 1 (Republic) Credit to by book 1: Wool. Just 14 hours to listen to it all on Audible. I bought all the Expanse books and novellas also on Audible… worth every (Republican) Credit! No, they do not take Imperial Credits! (but I did Love Andor series!)
Hell Yeah! Watto would never use audible if they demand REpublic Credits! Does audible accept Calamari Flan? Have you listened thru Holston's cleaning?
Reading Shift got me started.
Kinda feels like _The Expanse_ underground.
The Expanse was such a great show in season 2 and season 3 - let’s hope this show can be just as good
think i read this series a decade ago, maybe more. don't have AppleTV
AppleTV+ has Ted Lasso, Severence, The Afterparty - good stuff
I myself was down on AppleTV+ in general, but I finally decided to make myself watch Ted Lasso, and then I watched Severance (LOVED that), and now I'm glad I have it for this series (and I loved the books too so it will be interesting to see how the adaptation tracks).
@@DoublePMedia Apple TV + has the best original programming IMO. Low cost too. I've enjoyed Severence, Foundation, Shrinking, Servant, Invasion and now SILO. I think Apple + may surpass MAX.
@@lunacascade1125I couldn’t have said it better myself. Finally got AppleTV+ for Silo (it’s my favorite book series), and I’m blown away by the quality of every show I’ve binge-watched on it. You named every show I’ve binged so far: Foundation, Severance, Invasion, and just started Servant. Good taste! 👍
@@falsenostalgia-shannon so glad you enjoyed 😉
I thought this show was about corn. that's too bad
I'm betting it will be corn(y) for sure (given that the theme songs like a cheap take off of Ramin's Westworld theme)!. ;)

Where are all the old people?
This place is magically populated with all young and fit folks
LOL - Walking 58 flights of stairs every day is the fountain of youth!
there are old ppl
Ummmm........Walker, Marnes, Jahns ? what are you on about?
@@micheleheeder ummm… I meant old like senior citizens
@@serf6355 the ones I mentioned are all around 70.
