kinda obsessed with the innies having a way out of lumon but the outies (unless in a position of power or with permission) have no way in.

The rewatch value on this show is unlike what I have ever seen before. Each episode will reveal something that you just disregarded in a previous episode and you’ll just be stunned when it comes back again. This show refuses to be background noise and demands that you pay attention. Petey told mark that there was a department that never leaves. Back then you’re kind of like oh wow that’s crazy and then you find out that that department was Gemma. Mark’s best work friend told him about his wife.

You've been gone a long time, Gemma. He's moved on.

I kind of dig that the plot twist is that the Eagans are a dark take on Elon Musk instead of Jeff Bezos.

After seeing this post calling Helena Jeff Bezos I can’t help but look at Severance as an extremely dark take on an Amazon Warehouse. It’s literally a Black Mirror miniseries of working in Corporate.

The concept of being severed is kind of funny because what if there was someone on vacation during the time when Helly was hired. They were off for a couple of weeks and come back to find that the whole department has been radicalized. They just have to learn as they go. They have so much to take in.

“Oh we walk the halls now?”

“Irving is the one with an entanglement?”

“We have to ask for equipment because the new girl tried to chop off her fingers? Wtf do you mean we have to be supervised in the elevator? She tried to what???”

“That one guy disappeared? Well fuck him. I never liked him anyway.”

“…they can flip a switch and ask us questions about work when we’re off the clock?”

And everyone else is like “Yes Babe. Keep up.”

CHIKHAI BARDO Severance – 2.07

[irvngb]

I don’t think I’m ever going to be over Burt wanting a version of himself that goes to Heaven so much that he accidentally trapped himself in Hell and committed adultery.

This episode was a lot and I love that they don’t show an absolute perfect marriage. Yes their life is romanticized literally bathed in sunlight but you also get Mark being an asshole. You get that Gemma wasn’t just exclusively his, Devon and Ricken loved her too. And then you have the last moment he has with Gemma being where she had to get him to say I love you. I’m obsessed with the shift of Mark being in a soft warm light with Gemma then left alone in a dark empty space when the cops are at his door to tell him that she’s not coming back.

Editors are extremely overlooked so to Sir Keith Fraase just know I see you and you did your big one on this episode.

SEVERANCE+FACELESS S1E01 GOOD NEWS ABOUT HELL

Helena really read Harmony’s termination doc and said “Yeah okay. This is my way out.”
