quote:The first season of the show made me read the book series. I went on to read the Sand series from Hugh Howey, and just reading more books in general.
I am the opposite, I have only watched the show but I will start reading them books once I clear out some other books.
Anyway, the books are awesome. The second book gets into what the show is presenting now, but with quite a few changes that seem necessary for a show adaptation. I'm excited to see where they go with the show. The last episode seems to have really moved the plot along, which is good because there is a lot to cover.

In spite of being different than the books I still like the show a lot and interested in where this goes.

This isn’t directed at you, just a reminder to all to avoid discussing any discrepancies, real or imagined, the show may have with the books.

I binged this show up till the most recent.
To me everything seems to be an experiment by the AI. I am thinking a Fallout/Skynet thing but the AI has better intentions than Skynet.
AI or X destroyed the world bc they did too much fighting. AI wanted to wipe clean and start over. They got people into silos to run experiments on how to restart civilization. Safeguard is for a full hard reset of the experiment. Memory drugs/the pact is so that rebellions dont cause catastrophic failire to the experiment but allows them to soft reset. Relics remind everyone of past rebellions so they outlaw them. They then bring back up the residents and figures out how to not be so violent. Selective pregnancies allow aggression and rebelliousness to be phased out.
The silo 17 had different stories and different tellings of famous books.

I haven't seen today's episode yet, but so far I have been disappointed by this season. I like the flashback scenes, but the silo stuff just seems forced. A lot of lucky happenstances , leaps in logic, and weird conflicts that don't make much sense.
In the latter case I'm mainly talking about Juliette's best friend being a complete a-hole for the first several episodes because Juliette is suffering from amnesia. That's just a weird reaction and one that doesn't seem believable to me. If you're best friend gets amnesia, you're going to want to be with them more to try and help them remember, not avoid them entirely.
Flashbacks handle that correctly with the congressman bringing his sister mementos and trying to tell her stories to help her remember. Yeah, he might get frustrated, but he's not angry with his sister. It's not something she can control

It took me until this episode to realize she was one of the Sand chicks in Game of Thrones.

Instead of getting to know each other, why don’t congressman and reporter lady figure out where the hell they’re going?

Disappointed in this episode. Nothing happens and story really didnt move forward.

Did the AI screw up then correct itself at one point?

My wife and I did not like nor understand the ending of the last episode. Was this the final episode?

On land in Georgia, the Georgia Guidestones came to my mind.

Would be wild if they go there with it.
Also wild that the Georgia guidestones were recently destroyed. Some were damaged, and the rest were removed for safety reasons. Happened the second summer of covid.so people shrugged it off.

Does everyone remember the book they found back in Season 1?

I’d have thought they were located in more central or northern U.S.. interesting how they are in South GA.
* How did they deal with the fire ant problem?

It was a children’s Georgia tourism book. Found a pic online but can’t get it to post.
