  Apple TV+ Will Be Free to Stream for Three Days
  -----------------------------------------------
  Tech giant promotes free worldwide access to original titles
  including 'Severance,' 'Shrinking,' 'Ted Lasso,' 'The Morning
  Show' and more.
  Apple is hoping those who don't subscribe to Apple TV+ will
  ring in 2025 by binge-watching some of its original TV shows
  and movies - free for anyone with an Apple ID for three days.
  The full Apple TV+ catalog will be free to stream to users
  worldwide the first weekend of the year (from Friday, Jan. 3,
  to Sunday, Jan. 5), on on any device where the streaming
  service is available. All you need is an Apple ID and password
  to sign in for the free two-day weekend promotional period.
  The free promo is, of course, intended to drive people to sign
  up for Apple TV+ at the regular price: $9.99/month (or
  $99.99/year) in the U.S. Apple does not publicly disclose how
  many subscribers it has for Apple TV+, which it launched in
  November 2019.
  Apple touted a range of TV series available on the streaming
  service, including "Severance" (which returns for Season 2 on
  Jan. 17), the Emmy-winning "Ted Lasso" and "The Morning Show,"
  and others including "Silo," "Shrinking," "Bad Sisters,"
  "Slow Horses," "Disclaimer" and "Presumed Innocent." It also
  suggested users can "get your mind blown by celebrated sci-fi
  series" like "Dark Matter," "For All Mankind" and "Foundation."
  In addition, the Apple TV+ lineup includes family movies like
  "Fly Me to the Moon," starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing
  Tatum, and "The Family Plan," starring Mark Wahlberg and
  Michelle Monaghan; plus action-comedy "Wolfs" starring George
  Clooney and Brad Pitt, and "The Instigators" starring Matt
  Damon and Casey Affleck.

Looks like it will be two to three weeks before the season is ended as
it's only on episode 7 of season 2.

Even at the end of the video on that Apple webpage it says "January
4-5". Maybe some people are getting confused *if* the legalese small
print says something like "midnight Friday to midnight Sunday", but that really just means Saturday and Sunday.
Sorry, I don't know about Silo season 2. I haven't even started season 1
yet (it is on the very long and ever-growing list to try).
