I rewatched the entire season twice. Can't wait for the next season
Rewatching now myself!
Same
I worked on season two, it was an incredible experience. Excited to see it unfold, myself.
Omg!! Behind the camera, background work or what??
@@steveskonntent behind.
Are they done shooting?
lmaoooo@@paulapmr6668 yo gon believe him?
Give us a nugget
Man my heart almost dropped you said 10 episodes and thought I missed a new episode. The show has such a good premise as well as a good mystery that they drip feed you constantly throughout the season.
4:22 just one thing I think actually the show does make it clear at the beginning that Harmony Cobel is not a severed worker. In the first ep, she tells innie Mark that her mother was an atheist who said that "whatever humans imagine they can create" in reference to humans creating the idea of hell, and Lumon essentially creating an artificial hell for the innies. At the end of the ep she then tells outtie Mark that her mother was a catholic who used to say "it takes the saints 8 hours to bless a sleeping child". The outties' subconscious goes to sleep for 8 hours (9am-5pm) while the innies work. She's basically subconsciously justifying to outtie Mark that Lumon are saints who let him sleep like a child while his innie does the work, meanwhile inside she is tormenting innie Mark with this idea of him being stuck in Lumon's artificial hell. And neither innie or outtie Mark are able to understand her subconscious manipulation. Very sinister and cool little detail in the dialogue.
This comment is awesome thank you so much for sharing. Plus The Strokes profile pic, loveeee this
@@steveskonntentI wonder if Charlotte was severed-hence the two religions and cobel’s obsession with reintegration
It‘s similar to LOST in that it presents mystery after mystery and keeps you watching trying to make sense of it… very clever concept
Severance was created by Dan Erickson? I thought it was Kier Eagan
Had to pause your video so I can go watch it and be unspoiled!
Yes please go watch and come back!
I watched your Poor Things review and OF COURSE the first video on your channel pops up is a review of Severence. Which is my favourite show probably, ever.
Masterpiece.
One of my favorite things is when someone has very similar taste in art as me. Nice to meet you Katie!
I have rewatched this show 3 times... planning my 4th... am I nuts? Will likely rewatch it a 5th time before season 2 :D
I’m rewatching again now, you’re not nuts. It’s that goid
Great video! This is def one of my favorite shows and I cannot WAIT to see what they have in store for S2.
Thank you!! I am SO hype Johanna. So stoked for it
I love this show! Nice video, I watch too many video essays and I think yours are very enthralling. Some unsolicited advice, I think investing in a good quality mic will really elevate your channel :) Thanks for making this
Well thank you! Enthralling is such a great compliment. Yes, trying to fix my microphone for future videos, I had one but it only produced audio for the right earphone.
Thank you for the comment!!
@@steveskonntentthe reason a mic would do that is because your editing software is expecting stereo but your mic is (correctly) giving a mono signal. You should easily be able to convert it to mono audio with a simple right click or dropdown menu in audacity, premiere, or whatever software you are using :)
4:22 piano here sounds just like “Heir Apparent” by Opeth
Big little lies is phenomenal
Outstanding video. Although the audio quality of your voiceover is a little grating. Looking forward to the day you upgrade your microphone haha. Keep up the great work!
I started watching this show because I read that the some of the inspiration came from one of my favourite games, the Stanley parable, and I definitely see it in the way they use the office spaces. There’s just something completely unsettling about these big, empty office spaces. I’m really glad I took the plunge and watched it, easily one of the best new shows of recent years.
Love the use of liminality throughout the show
Great video dude. What a start to a series. I am in awe of how staggeringly rich and fully drawn it is for an opening season. I would always hesitate to build up expectations to high in this world we live in though...! We've all suffered through True Detective follow up seasons and the final seasons of game of thrones (and Heroes and Lost and on and on)....
In one of my first jobs induction my boss made me spend 30 minutes in front of a mirror smiling. She said I needed to cultivate my “work persona” and practice on my smiling. I remember smiling at myself in the mirror and thinking 2 things. 1)I’m not paid enough for this crap 2)So I’m supposed to become someone else… creepy
Watching the characters in Severance really bought back that chilling memory of me smiling like an idiot, trying to be someone else at work.
Only found out about the show by sheer luck because one of my favourite content creators on yt made his own cover of the intro music which in itself made me interested in what this series has to offer. Now I can say without a doubt Severance is in my top 3 shows I ever watched, sharing this spot with masterpieces such as Attack on Titan.
I need to watch it again
By far the best most original show created in the past decade maybe longer. The only show I would put above it is the first season of true detective. Which in my opinion is the greatest single season of a show ever created but severance comes very close.
@@RabbiRabbit87 true detective S1 is so, so spectacular. I don’t know if I’d lean that or severance. I think severance is much more original, but True Detective s1 probably more gripping and dramatic for me
@@steveskonntent agreed I guess they are both amazing in different ways
There's only 9 episodes in Season 1, 10 in Season 2. Adam Scott has been in a lot more movies where he doesn't play a douchebag, go check those out, he's an incredible actor.
One question: Where is the 10th episode? My Netflix only lists 9...
Thanks for the great video! Really felt like you got everything you wanted to across without it dragging at all! Can’t wait for season 2! Nice editing as well. What did you use to edit if you don’t mind me asking?
Thank you for this comment!!♥️ I use a program called 4k video downloaded (it’s free) and then adobe premiere pro to edit. I pull background music from artist.io
@@steveskonntent Thanks that’s awesome! I’ll have to look into that!
There's a lot of similarities to the movie Click
I don’t know that we will ever see season 2.
Why isn’t it out yet. When was it due?
Adam Scott posted something about them filming a few weeks ago. I’d say probably not in 2024, but who knows?
The production of season 2 had to be paused because of the strike with the writer's and actor's guilds. Apple TV and Ben Stiller both made a post on social media on January 29th teasing that they're back to work on the series, but nothing more precise than that has come out.
what are other such series?
Similar to severance?
This makes me think of west world
Need to watch that!
You can't get the first sentence correct. It was nine episodes. Goodbye.
If your videos were at least twice as long you would get more views
I have some longer ones (12-14 minutes range) but I definitely hear you. As I improve at analysis and have more to say I think I’ll go longer sometimes. But with severance being one season I didn’t want to overdo it just yet. Thank you though!♥️
