Apple TV+ sci-fi mystery show Silo earns the recognition of Stephen King as a worthy watch

If you've been thinking of watching a sci-fi TV series that will blow your mind, renowned author Stephen King has already suggested two: Silo and From. The American author is best known for books related to horror, supernatural fiction, suspense, and fantasy.

Stephen King's impressive storytelling skills have transformed him into one of the most influential and successful authors in modern times. He recently shared his thoughts on Bluesky, stating:

"There are really only two "mystery box" shows that I felt were worth my time last year and this coming year (for "mystery box shows," think LOST): FROM and SILO. As always, your mileage may differ."

King has left room for different opinions, and according to him, the Apple TV+ shows Silo and John Griffin's From are the two worth-watch series. The author also mentioned that the two shows are slightly similar to Lost, but the themes are impressively different.

Since its first season, From has intrigued fans with the supernatural forces that trap the residents of a small town. The characters have to ensure their survival in a hazardous environment, especially at night.

Whereas, the Apple TV+ series features Rebecca Ferguson in the leading role and is based on Hugh Howey's novel series. In this sci-fi series, a large number of residents live inside a massive underground structure called the "silo."

They're told that the world above is toxic, but when Ferguson's Juliette Nichols starts her investigation, she gradually uncovers a dark truth. Continue reading to learn more about the Apple TV+ series.
