    It’s good, but there was one glaring plothole that, once I noticed, ruined my love for the show

    Tap for spoiler

    During the blackout, when people are huddling there’s a flicker of the above tree from outside, but it’s alive. There is no reason, other than to build suspense for audience members, for there to be any showing of an alive tree during the livestream. The video feed isn’t hacked, the tree most certainly isn’t alive, and nobody ever brings up how the entirety of the silo saw for a split second an alive tree. I hate it when a show or movie does something that makes no sense in-universe just to fool audience members

    That being said, I haven’t watched season 2, so maybe it’s explained there

      yeah, thats still an open question, if i dont forget anything about s2.

      i’d guess it will be some technobable about the video signal thats send to the cleaners helm and the cafeteria window are processed by the same programs, if they ever want to get back to it or it will be explained as some kind of fail-safe to get potential rebels out of the silo or something like that.

        I mean, it still doesn’t explain why nobody, not a single person (especially the people who already suspected it), brought up why the tree was alive for a second

        But it was a good show, so I’ll probably watch season 2 at some point
