Apple TV has stumbled into some massive success stories in the sci-fi genre in recent years, but the show that topped all others was Pluribus. Hailing from iconic TV scribe Vince Gilligan, famed for his work penning Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, Pluribus shattered records on its way to becoming the most-watched Apple TV sci-fi show of all time. Apple TV also has another sci-fi thriller dominating streaming right now in Silo, the dystopian series led by Rebecca Ferguson returning for its third season. Fans have little to worry about regarding the future of Silo, too, as the show has not only been picked up for Season 4, but the fourth and final season was shot back-to-back with the third. This should eliminate another two-year gap between seasons, all but assuring that Silo Season 4 will air in 2027.
To reach the pinnacle of Apple TV sci-fi streaming greatness, Pluribus had to pass Severance, the platform’s original sci-fi crown jewel. The first season of Severance dropped all the way back in 2022, but due to COVID-19 restrictions and the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, it took over three full years for Severance to come back for Season 2. The show has been officially picked up for Season 3 — Apple TV made the announcement on the same day as the Season 2 finale — but it’s still unclear when it will return to streaming. Before its return, the show holds its status as one of the top 10 most-watched series’ on Apple TV, currently sitting at #8 on watchlists at the time of writing. The series was written and created for TV by Dan Erickson and directed by Ben Stiller.
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.
The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.
You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
Production on Severance Season 3 is expected to begin any day now, but the show takes a long time to film, so it could easily be shooting through the end of this year. Around the time that Severance was renewed for Season 3, Ben Stiller promised that the wait would be less than that of Season 2. Leading star Adam Scott recently softened his stance on this, saying that everyone involved in making Severance would rather take longer to deliver a final product worth its name than rush into it and fall short of high expectations.
Check out the first two seasons of Severance on Apple TV and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Season 3.
