Anyone watching Beacon 23? Is it worth starting? (lemmy.nz)

I see it's based on the book by Hugh Howey, who also did the Silo series which I really enjoyed the TV adaptation of. I'm wondering if it's any good as I don't have a lot of time for starting too many TV shows at the moment.

I read the book just last week, had no idea it was a show now. The book was alright, it kept me entertained enough. I did think it would make for a good movie or show, but I don't know how close to the source the show is. I'll say that Wool and the sequels were better. The show silo was better than the books I thought, but could just be me.

Interesting that you found the Silo show better. I haven't read the books yet but I'm going to eventually, because I want to know what's going.
