Apple has officially renewed the sci-fi drama series Silo, based on Hugh Howey's popular Wool trilogy, for a second season.
The series premiered on Apple TV+ on May 5, and its eighth episode is set to air on June 16.
Matt Cherniss, the head of programming for Apple TV+, expressed
his satisfaction with the show's success, stating, "It has been enormously
fulfilling to see the engrossing, atmospheric and beautifully crafted sci-fi
epic 'Silo' quickly become Apple's number one drama series."
He
added that viewership has been steadily climbing as audiences around the
world become captivated by the mysteries and conspiracies within the
subterranean world of the silo.
The series follows the story of the last ten thousand people on
Earth, living in a mile-deep silo that protects them from the toxic and
deadly outside world.

Wool, Shift, and Dust.
