What to Watch Friday, September 4: ‘Silo’ Season 3 Finale, ‘Earle Meets World’ and More

Friday has arrived, and if your weekend plans involve ignoring the outside world and finding something good to watch, television is more than willing to help.

Apple TV has one of the day's biggest lineups with the Season 3 finale of Silo and another episode of Dark Matter, while Netflix invites viewers into Alix Earle's world with the premiere of Earle Meets World. Prime Video also has The Grand Tour back on the road, Paramount+ heads onto the football field with The Program: Texas Tech, and the daytime soaps are all new.

Here are The TV Cave's picks for what to watch on Friday, September 4.

Where to Watch	What to Watch
⭐ Apple TV	Silo — Season 3 Finale: Juliette's latest journey reaches its endpoint as Season 3 concludes with Episode 10, “Troy.” After another season of secrets, discoveries and plenty of reasons to question basically everything, it's time to see what the series leaves us with heading into its next chapter. The TV Cave's Top Pick.
Apple TV	Dark Matter: Season 2 continues with Episode 2, “A Perfect World.” The sci-fi thriller is only getting started with its latest run, so now is probably the time to catch up before things get even more complicated. And with Dark Matter, we know they will.
Netflix	Earle Meets World — Series Premiere: Alix Earle moves from your social media feed to Netflix with an eight-episode reality series following her career, family, friends and life as one of Gen Z's biggest social media personalities. All eight episodes are available today.
Netflix	On Campus: Game of the Week: Netflix gets into the college sports action with a new live game-day offering as football season gets underway.
Netflix	Teenage Wasteland: The new documentary looks back at students and a teacher who used a DIY film project to expose a toxic-waste conspiracy in 1991.
Paramount+	The Program: Texas Tech — Premiere: College football fans can go behind the scenes with the Texas Tech Red Raiders in a new sports docuseries following the program from the inside.
Prime Video	The Grand Tour: The motoring series returns with another batch of adventures, because apparently there are still roads left for these guys to drive on.
HBO Max	Conan O'Brien Must Go: Conan's travels continue with a new episode. If you prefer your travel shows with considerably more awkward encounters and Conan being Conan, here you go.
CBS	Big Brother: Unlocked: The houseguests may be living inside the Big Brother house, but Unlocked continues giving viewers another look at the season and everything happening around it.
ABC	Jeopardy! Masters: The competition continues with the third and fourth semifinal games as the remaining elite players fight for their spots in the next round.
USA Network	WWE Friday Night SmackDown: WWE takes over Friday night once again with another live edition of SmackDown.
USA Network	Anna Pigeon: The mystery drama continues with “The Rope” as another case puts Anna back in the middle of danger.
STARZ	Fightland: The crime drama continues its run with a new episode titled “There Is a War Coming.” Subtle title, right?

Daytime TV

Friday also brings new episodes across the daytime soap lineup. Days of Our Lives is streaming on Peacock, while CBS has new episodes of The Young and the Restless, The Bold and the Beautiful and Beyond the Gates. ABC rounds things out with a new episode of General Hospital.

Basically, Port Charles, Fairmont Crest, Salem, Genoa City and Los Angeles are all open for business today — and somebody somewhere is almost certainly making a terrible decision.

The TV Cave's Top Picks

If you're only choosing a few things today, start with Silo. A season finale automatically moves to the front of the line, and “Troy” closes out the show's third season.

For something completely different, Earle Meets World gives reality fans an entire eight-episode season to binge. Dark Matter is also an easy recommendation for anyone already invested in Season 2, while The Program: Texas Tech arrives at exactly the right time for viewers getting back into college football mode.

Whatever you choose, there's enough new television to get the weekend started without spending 45 minutes scrolling through six streaming apps before ultimately rewatching something you've already seen. We've all been there.
