There’s a common complaint for TV viewers. Game of Thrones had it and now Silo has had it. People are done trying to watch dark shows. Not dark in terms of content, but dark in terms of lighting.

The second season especially was on the darker side. There’s a power issue in Silo 17, and that means very little light in the place. A show needs to feel authentic, and if a place has no light, then that needs to be shown on screen. The problem is that it makes for difficult viewing.

There’s more time outside in Silo season 3

There is some good news for fans. Silo season 3 won’t be as dark. There will still be moments in Silo 17, where the power issue is, but there will also be scenes outside. In the brightness!

That’s because part of Silo season 3 will be set 300 years in the past.
