In the past, horror novelist Stephen King has utilized his always-active Twitter account to praise an abundance of new television shows that seemingly catch his eye. Just yesterday, King offered the highest of praises for Apple TV Plus’ Silo — the platform’s newest sci-fi spectacle which has just officially been renewed for a jaw-dropping second season.
As per Deadline, the engaging dystopian drama, based on Hugh Howley’s novel series Wool, was effectively renewed due to the massive impact that it’s making on the streaming service. As it stands, the series boasts its position as the #1 drama in Apple TV Plus’ history, along with its viewership growing in colossal numbers ever since its premiere back at the beginning of May.
Supported by a knockout cast of A-Listers such as Rebecca Ferguson, Rashida Jones, and Common, the dystopian saga blends beautiful cinematography and otherworldly madness together in an episodic experience that keeps viewers undoubtedly coming back for more. In fact, the proof is undeniably in the pudding, with the eye-popping series currently boasting an 87 percent approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
With ever-growing series such as Yellowjackets receiving the seal of approval from King himself, it’s worth noting that perhaps the acclaimed author can increase Silo’s audience tenfold and introduce the sci-fi extravaganza to an entirely new audience of television fanatics.
Until further information about the show’s season 2 is announced, folks can stream Silo season 1 episodes on Apple TV Plus right now.
