  • In a new installment of TheWrap's How I Did It video series, Severance stars Adam Scott and Britt Lower as well as creator Dan Erickson take us behind the scenes of the Apple TV+ series, revealing where the idea for the show came from, why Lower was the perfect choice to play Helly R., and why John Turturro was passionate about casting Christopher Walken as his character's love interest. They also explain how the sci-fi series, despite its dark premise, embraces the humanity of the characters. #Severance #AdamScott #HowIDidIt

      It’s funny, I’ve known of him my entire life and have always kinda thought of him as just a “passable” actor as I think I’d just never seen him in a role that really tested his capabilities. But by the end of this show I was convinced this man needs an award for the acting he did in this series with just his eyes alone. Man is INCREDIBLE

    Hearing the creator of any show talk about “deep lore” is always great. Means they care a lot.

    This show is like a very good singer that mastered the bridge between head and chest voice so perfectly that the transition is seamless. Dark humor and tension blends so perfectly and we switch from one to the other so seamlessly.

    Really, one of the best shows ever made. It stands out today with all these shows that are about nothing, this one really explores something about the human condition.

    Not really hard to see how anyone who has ever worked a 9-5 job would've come up with this premise.

    One time on nightshift, I was tasked with moving a desktop computer from one floor to another, for a new staff member, but the floor is so all over the place, I almost fainted LOL. It didn't help that one single outlet for the PC data connection is NOT right next to the others in sequence, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 5, that kind of thing. I'm hovering around the 4 and the 6, trying to find [outlet] 5 - in the end, I got someone else to help me, and they found [outlet] 5 in 2 minutes...it would be so much easier this year [2023] with desktop PCs that actually HAVE built-in Wi-Fi.

    The views on these videos are disappointing. This series should be far more discussed. One of my favorites of the decade.

    I reeeeally think the creator or someone close to the creator played Control. It’s just too similar for him not to be aware of that game

    • @blackmaestros
      @blackmaestros 9 місяців тому +5

      It’s not quite the same but I definitely caught myself thinking about Control. Especially during the Board scenes. The Board even sounds similar

      @TheLevitatingFleem 9 місяців тому +5

      @@blackmaestros yeah the plot/characters definitely arent the same, but the atmosphere, locations and *especially* The Board are just too similar to be coincidence imo. but I’m not saying that’s even remotely a bad thing, I like seeing good media inspiring other good media.

    • @backtoklondike

      Erickson has at least admitted that one of the inspirations was Stanley Parable. And being inspired by Control isn't that farfetched either
