      Same. It’s not that it’s “uneventful”, it’s just that each “event” just adds more nonsensical mystery. It feels like Lost, which some people thought was twisty in a clever way. But instead the writers literally just kept throwing twists with no actual end in mind.

      I’m sure Severance has some kind of plan, but it feels way longer than it needs to be. It’d make a good movie or limited series, but I’m not into this vibe for multiple seasons.

      It’s definitely not for everyone. It’s a very complex show with a lot of symbolism, and you kind of have to think for yourself what’s really the implications of what’s going on.

      I was hooked from beginning to end, but it’s definitely pretty boring if you don’t get the subtext, or simply want an easy sit back and relax kind of show.

      I liked season 1 and season 2 is the most pretentious slop and my friends call it a masterpiece and I feel like an alien

      s2e4 has to be one of the worst episodes of television I’ve ever consumed in my life. stopped watching e right there.

      s1 is alright though, endings a bit stupid but whatever
