‘Silo’ Season 3 is going to be a lot less dark than season 2

“Silo,” starring and executive produced by Rebecca Ferguson
Fans of “Silo” can expect a significant shift in tone for the upcoming third season. Unlike the notably dark atmosphere of season two, the new season will be considerably brighter, both literally and figuratively. For season two, viewers who find it too dark are advised to “crank the brightness up” on their TVs, but, that won’t be necessary for season three which will expand beyond the confines of the silo, showcasing more diverse locations and even featuring scenes bathed in sunshine.

Given the shocking, flashbacky finish to the Apple TV+ adaptation’s Season 2 finale — and in the wake of season-long viewer complaints about the post-apocalyptic drama being too dark in scenes — showrunner Graham Yost affirmed for TVLine that Season 3 will be easier on the eyes. Or, at least parts of it will.
That’s because as teased in the final sequence of Season 2, large chunks of next season will be set 300 years prior, in a near-future, pre-dystopian Washington, D.C. and other cities. In actual buildings that experience actual daylight and weather…
“So yes, we will be outdoors, and we will be in the world, and there will be sunshine,” Yost said, speaking to the parts of Season 3 that will be brighter.
That said…. “We do go back to Silo 17” in Season 3, he noted. “And remember, they’ve got a very big power issue there, so they don’t have a lot of light.”
“Listen, I’m not going to defend it. It’s just the way it plays. And sometimes stuff looks one way in a dark editing room,” Yost said. “When we showed the first episode on a big screen in London, it looked fantastic, because motion picture screens are very bright. So I just encourage everyone to crank up the brightness [at home], and you’ll see a difference.”

MacDailyNews Take: It looked fine to us. They’re in an underground Silo with limited power. It’s supposed to be dark.
