I got a little bit of anxiety just thinking about this show again.

cannot wait.

How many episodes before this series kicks into gear? We've watched the first two for season 1. And while the 2nd was slightly better, they were both painfully slow.

The whole series is a pretty slow burn with a couple of more intense moments in later episodes. The intrigue and weirdness are what carries it imo and that ramps up significantly about halfway through iirc.

Came here expecting to see an update on Season 2. Hopes dashed...

This is kind of one of those shows that people love or find really boring. I liked the intrigue and weirdness from the start and didn't mind the slow-burn, which it stays at for most of the season.

Yeah, I was so caught up in all the mystery and intrigue and top-tier storytelling that I didn't once think of it as being "slow."

Best I can do for an update... I have a friend who is connected to this show somewhat on the production side... I asked him a few weeks ago "When are we getting season 2 of Severance?" and his response was - "Dude... **** Ben Stiller"


Not very informative but I found it hilarious and not at all what I was expecting

Man. I hope they had the series mapped out unlike some other shows.

I've read somewhere that it isn't all chaotic and they have a plan in place. Its been a while since I read that article though, but I think they mostly disccused a lot more to explore inside of Lumen and the different departments and reasons for the goats and stuff.

Three years between seasons is not a way to run a show. Ridiculous.

IMO, I'd rather they get it right than quick. But three years is a long time. Probably exacerbated by the strike.

True. But there have been plenty of shows that have been able to accomplish both.

If not for the strikes, season two would have likely already aired in full by now.

That said, I've heard from multiple people now that Ben Stiller has been extremely frustrating to work with on this, not because he's an assh*le or anything, but because he shoots TV like it's film, and is waaay more meticulous than TV usually allows, which traditionally shoots far faster than film.

It's been long enough I'm going to re-watch after football season. I of course remember the main plot but it was so intricate no doubt I'll pick up a few new things. Can't wait for the tease of what is in store for season 2.

Great trailer. Looks like I'll have to re-up Apple TV+

Woohoo! Cannot wait.

Also don't remember how long the offer runs but T-Mobile is offering 6 months of AppleTV free right now. Peanuts in the grand scheme of things but not bad if you're already a customer or switching anyway...

Simply a post to state that I think both Helly and the Lumus spokeswoman with the blonde afro are smoking hot.

Both would be invited to my waffle party.

Is Apple poking fun at their 3 year gap with Milchick's "Been a minute"?

Looking forward to this big time.

Outstanding show. Some real heavy hitters on that cast.

That is going to require a re-watch of S1 before I start it

Glad to have waited 1mo before S2 to finally watch.

Don't want to watch the S2 trailer and risk spoilers.

Only issue with this show is seeing Irving as Knish from the movie Rounders.

Wow…just watched season one…crazy show. Twisted…did not expect that about the wife. Like someone said above…Ms Casey seems robotic, similar to Westworld.

Waffle party was weird…Evil. Not sure how I feel about that.

Theory:
Mark's wife is "Dead". She was severed, but the chip was recording her "Macrodata". The chip is a means of consciousness transfer and the MDR team is organizing people's personality data for transfer or banking.

Just finished a rewatch to prepare for season 2. I was worried it would lose something since I already knew the twists, but I couldn't have been more wrong. I think the second viewing was even better. Highly recommend rewatching if you have the time!
