So I have a theory about the Senator and Reporter. What if they are in real time, not in the past. What if the silos are happening in part of the country where it can be isolated, monitored, and observed from a far. I know this is probably far-fetched. But with the above poster saying GA doesn't have 15 districts, maybe their district is the silos, and we know there is a silo 15 mentioned during the 2 seasons. I have watched enough LOST to know never trust a timeline. Didn't he or she also say, sorry to what happened to your 15th district. Maybe that was referring to the rebellion and everyone dying.... I'm sure I'm wrong but fun to throw out some wild ass theory.

The silos have been there for generations unless I've missed something. The people inside don't know what the outside world used to look like to the point their parents and grandparents wouldn't have been able to describe it to them. Them not having that level of comprehension can only be attained in total isolation for a long period of time. The residents don't even know how long they've been underground.

I have a theory as well. Given how there is a level of AI involved in running the silos I've wondered if there's any chance AI had something to do with the event where the outside world was destroyed so the people had to go into the silos to begin with. What if the dirty bomb was blamed on Iran but was actually a product of AI gone wrong. The government prepared for the day everything did go wrong by creating the silos and blamed the event on another country. What if this is a straight up T2 judgement day without the robots walking around, but they still caused the end of the world? There is only basic technology available to the people in the silo outside of the smallest number, humanity is in a state of arrested development so they can't evolve and be in charge again. Granted I don't know why the AI would kill off most of humanity and keep the rest effectively as pets. I've wondered if the silos are an experiment in this area but there's another part of the country/world that knows about them and is actually just observing the inhabitants in perpetuity.

Mostly a strong final few episodes to end the season and a pretty good if not slightly frustrating finale at times, IMO. Overall, though, I just don't think it's ever a good idea to have your lead separated from the rest of the cast for that long, but I'm glad they're at least finally all back together. I just wish we had, like, five minutes of them interacting again as opposed to ending on the fire. That, and as intriguing as the final sequence/flashback was, more than anything it made me want to have had more of that kind of stuff sprinkled throughout.

Oh, well.

I'm definitely curious to see where things go from here, I'm excited that it won't feel like two separate shows anymore, and that an end game is in place with a two-season run to wrap it all up. Hopefully that means a bit more focus and a lot less water treading from here on out.

---

I agree that the last couple of episodes saved it. Man, this thing drags a ton and the darkness is incredibly frustrating. Almost makes in unwatchable, at times.

The finale salvaged it for me so I am looking forward to season 3, but man, sometimes it was a real labor to watch.

This is pretty much my take. I was even falling asleep at times during Season 2 because it was so slow and sometimes couldn't see what was happening… and I never fall asleep watching TV.

Exactly my feelings. Apple TV invests in creating characters, plots and themes that are much deeper than most, but so deep it gets long and frustrating to a point the pace puts me to sleep. At the same time I have to keep going back to try and get answers.

Unfortunately there were so many episodes I fell asleep watching that I slept right through the next episode and have to go back and figure out where I crashed. I have similar experiences with Severance.

Gotta be. Somebody cut the rope in Ep 1 and it wasn't Solo.

Or Solo has multiple personality disorder. That would fit his behavior so far.

It's a thought, but I think that was an arrow laying next to one of the pools of blood.
