Severance(2022)
Welcome back, I know you miss my mind-blowing and super awesome recommendations, so here is another one.
Actors which I know and I am assuming you know too
Listen up, you culturally deprived souls — I just spotted Adam Scott’s gloriously chiseled side profile on a poster and my brain immediately short-circuited into “MUST WATCH THIS SHOW” mode. You know him as Ben “I Love Spreadsheets” Wyatt from Parks & Rec (if you don’t, kindly exit the building and think about your poor life choices). Don’t need to know the plot or cast — his face already convinced me to watch the whole thing. And yes, I’m being extra dramatic today because I CAN. Here is other cast and HIM.
Plot
This is the ultimate series for those of us who can’t tell where our work life ends and our personal life begins and honestly, don’t even want to try. Enter Adam, a guy who’s already had it rough. He’s grieving, tired, and, for some reason, decides to sign up for a “procedure.” What’s the procedure, you ask? No, it’s not therapy or a yoga retreat — it’s way weirder.
Picture this: Adam goes home, feeling all the feels, trying to move on. He wakes up, heads to work, and… bam. The moment he steps into the elevator, poof his personal memories disappear. He’s now Work Adam, who has no clue about Home Adam. The best part? When the workday is over, ding! Elevator magic strikes again, and his work memories vanish, leaving Home Adam to pick up the pieces . It’s like two completely different people are living in the same body, trading shifts like bad roommates who never meet.
Sounds fun, right? Well, here’s the kicker: if this company is up to any shady business, good luck exposing it. No one’s spilling secrets when their brain hits the factory reset button twice a day. And oh, are they up to something shady? Absolutely.
I binged this whole thing in one night because I have zero self-control. The last episode? Let’s just say it left me emotionally scarred — and I want you all to carry these scars with me. Watch it. Suffer with me. Thank me later.
My wisdom regarding this series
Listen up, if you’re like me and get unreasonably excited about weird plots, fancy camera work, and dialogue that makes your brain go kharrrrr, Apple TV+ has got us COVERED. They really said “What if we made shows that make people question their entire existence?” and honestly? I’m here for it.
The casting director deserves a medal and probably therapy for assembling this dream team. These actors are out here making me catch feelings through their EYEBALLS alone and how dare you? And the villain? So phenomenally evil that I may or may not have attempted to throw hands with my TV screen (my therapist will not be taking questions at this time).
Apple TV+ has been absolutely crushing it lately, serving quality content with a side of emotional damage. Season 2 is finally here. And yes, I’m ready to get hurt again because apparently I never learn!
Conclusion
Just watch it~
Thank you for reading!
