Apple TV<\/a> has become one of the few places where good science fiction drama series can not only be created, but thrive since the recent dearth of such programs on United States broadcast television. With the final episode of recently completed season two of The Ark<\/a>, no science fiction programming is available until Alien Earth<\/a> premieres in 2025 on Hulu<\/a> and hopefully FX Networks<\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thankfully streaming services such as Apple TV<\/a> have filled the broadcast television science fiction void with series like Silo<\/a>, based on the successful novels by Hugh Howey<\/a>. <\/span><\/span>Following their success of For All Mankind<\/a> created by Ronald D. Moore<\/a> and the fabulous Foundation<\/a> series based on the famous Isaac Asimov<\/a> novels Both series have been renewed for a fifth and third seasons respectively. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Now comes Silo<\/a>, created by\u00a0 Graham Yost<\/a> who is well known in the science fiction community for his time as an executive producer for the great Falling Skies<\/a> series that encompassed five fabulous seasons from 2011 to 2015.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
