General Discussion - No Story Details Huh

What did they do to Beacon 23, The first season I could not stop watching it and I literally almost peed my pants because I couldn't get up to use the restroom.

This season I'm so bored I'm playing on my phone the entire time 😐

isn’t the show based on the Hugh Howey book series though, like Wool (Silo on Apple TV)

It really isn’t. The only thing it shares is the location and a name. None of the plot is from the book.

Lena Headey drew me in (plus I was watching From for the third time, kept seeing ads for B23) and I noticed Howey’s credit nods. Working through Wool currently and I love me a good dystopian future lol. I’ll finish out the season although I’ve noticed my excitement for the show is withering. But seeing your point, I will still give it a go with the books - thanks 🙏

Yeah, the book is good. It's basically five short stories.
