Almost every streaming service has moved away from full season dumps because it shortens the amount of public discussion and then people move quickly on to other things. One release per week is the norm now, and it makes the show better because you have a chance to think about what happened before jumping right into the next episode.

Oh that's a good point. My one complaint with new TV series / mini-series the past few years is that the gap between seasons is way too long, almost causing disinterest to creep in.
Writers and producers designed the silo, for the sole purpose of drama and story. 🙄
Apparently you didn't watch her in the Mission Impossible movies.
and most importantly they get a strong wrap up and finale. they should take notes from Lasso on how to finish a series
I think her skill isn't supposed to be all action; the newest episode shows her skills from an engineering standpoint better than it has so far
It’s not her height it’s her body. I never believed for a second she was working on engines. And at one point she grabs a giant wrench which must be a prop because no way.
Have you seen the TV show Nakita? Find it or watch a clip and you will die laughing. The main character is maybe 80 pounds and borderline anorexic and she fights a guy that looks like 6 foot. 275 pounds in the first episode and I was laughing too hard to continue.
1) This is a fiction. It is not supposed to be realistic in any way.
2) You would be very surprised by the strength of some thin people. I don't remember Bruce Lee to be very large or heavy (to take one example from the cinema world, but more examples could be found in the world of sports).
First season was quite uneven, but solid ***/*****.
The first episode of season 2 was almost boring. But I will keep watching.

I love that aspect of this episode. You can almost see the wheels turning in her head.
I love that she’s not a Mary Sue. A rope fails. Her jury-rigged bridge falls apart as she walks across it. The danger seems real, and she does get hurt.
When she finally does succeed, her reaction is a surprised “huh“.
That rope thing was silly. Why did she not hang the rope from the side she was trying to cross? And just lower herself straight down?
I’m reading Molly Fyde to my kids at bedtime. They fall asleep almost immediately, but I keep reading to the end of the chapter.
Interesting. I actually like the show mainly because of Rebecca. I had only seen her in Mission Impossible movies before in a role that doesn’t need good acting. But she is SO good in this role and I have been very impressed with her acting. The badass nature of this character is not about the physicality, it’s about mental and personality toughness. She conveys that so well.
Same here. I appreciate this show is showing a badass female character who is not action oriented. We established that in Season 1 and they put it to great use here. Sometimes being a bad ass is more mental then physical, and it's something I really loved about this episode.
They are all 5'7"± and the same weight profile. I'd actually bet Ferguson is the more solid of three. And, IMO, easily a better actor in any drmatic way.
I don't love it like I did Wool but overall it seems to be a very cool story. Im into the second book now.
Gal Gadot is a model with sticks for arms and legs. It was movie magic that turned her into WW
I take it you didn't see Rebecca Ferguson in mission impossible rogue nation
Did you think the first season of Silo was so great? I have to be honest and say that it was mostly boring. Only the question of whether the surface was a wasteland or an oasis was interesting to find out, but the story that happened in Silo was rather unspectacular and boring.
I think it’s hilarious that people think she isn’t “equipped” to do the role in real life.
They might be amazed to know that in movies and on tv, they have these extraordinary people called a stuntman or woman.
Guess what people living in a fairy tale, the actors often don’t do all the hard work! Sorry to spoil it for you.
Im still flabbergasted that Thing wasn’t really an autonomous hand in the Addams Family.
And the air is so stuffy! Can't they crack open a window or something?
Where did it say Rocky was a heavyweight? And why would the story even require that Rocky's weight class be any different than Stallone's weight?
