Just watched/listened to Die Hart today while working and do not understand the duration of these episodes. Weird. :ziggi:
BTW this is not an endorsement, it sucked.

I’m digging Silo as well. Solid show. First episode was dynamite.

New season of The Bear is so far fantastic as well (two episodes in).

We just started Season 2 of The Bear as well. Good stuff so far.

We really enjoyed Class of '09 on HULU.

I binged The Bear (Season 02) in 3 days - man, oh man. I haven't enjoyed a show like this since watching Mr. Robot (favorite show IMO)

Yeah this season of the Bear felt like its own thing in a good way. Bunch of really cool character development and some stellar cameo appearances.

Im 4 eps in. Great so far. Apple tv is the king of sci fi currently.

Thought it started great but has steadily gone downhill since. I've just got the finale left. Feels like the season could have been 5 or 6 episodes instead of 10.

Common is a horrendous actor.

Ugh. Dats disappointing.

P.S. Rappers/musicians in general are bad actors/actresses.

EGT, a few eps provide backstories... not as action packed, for sure. Subsequent eps still answer questions along with additional mysteries. Blue, keep watching... eps 9 and 10 are great! It's the #1 show on Apple TV.

I'm on the fence about whether I want to read the books prior to S2. It's been said that the books are a great read. The story has been adapted for tv. Hugh Howey's Silo Trilogy: Wool, Shift, Dust (to be read in that order). Book readers in FB group said the story gets really good after what we see in the finale.

Is Common the rapper guy? If so, yeah... not a great actor. It isn't something that ruins the show, though.

Yeah I definitely want to read the books. The concepts behind the show are great, I just thought it dragged waaayyy too much and there was too much domesticated fudge and not enough gritty fudge.

Good to see good ol Jorah Mormont back in action! He is also in The Rig on Amazon which I thought was better than Silo overall.
