Severance

[Panthro]

On Apple TV.
The acting is phenomenal, and the story is pretty crazy. Brings new meaning to the term, “work-life balance.”
Highly recommend!

Yeah man. It was amazing Slow burn then really took off in the last few episodes.

Surprised there isn't more chatter about the show.

Turns out Millchick is a Vol. In a cast of incredible characters, he may be the best.

At first I thought this thread was about Charlie Severance, part of one of the greatest defenseive plays in Tennessee football history. I copy from the great Marvin West: The Stop is forever, the great defensive play of Nov. 7, 1959, Heisman hero Billy Cannon running for a two-point conversion and the fourth-quarter lead after an LSU touchdown. Wayne Grubb, Charles Severance and Bill Majors combined for the tackle, three-quarters of an inch short of the goal. Tennessee won, 14-13. You can look it up.

Funny: we just started it. 2 ep in and I am wondering if they are conducting an experiment on viewer's brains, as well.

Almost caught up in season 2.... this show is bananas.

Friggin Adam Scott.

He's one of several actors I like but every time I see him I think to myself "what do I know him from?". So I look him up expecting to see and old movie or TV show that I remember him from, but don't.

I know NGAF, but it drives me crazy.

Never watched this show but like alot of people in it. Imma check it out.

I started season 2 yesterday and watching the recap I decided to do a rewatch of the last episode of 1. Too many damn years between seasons. Great show though

Pro tip: if you don't have time for a re-watch, I just take 10 minutes to find the Wiki page and read the episode summaries from the previous season.

We just watched season 1. So no lag. This show might make me insane.

It’s a handful

This week's episode was a bit of a letdown. Lots of driving around for one reveal. Hoping they finish the season with some big answers.

I just started watching this a couple of weeks ago. Didn’t take me long to catch up. Man this is one of the better shows I’ve seen in a while. Highly recommend

Thoughts on the season finale? I was screaming at the TV.

I thoroughly enjoyed it in the moment and have enjoyed thinking about it since, but I did have a few things that made me confused or a little disappointed.

I've only ever thought of Outtie Mark as the protagonist of the story and realized he's not, which is kinda blowing my mind.

That was pretty intense.

Spoiler

Loved the scene where the Marks "talked" to each other

Started watching it, stopped when they started the sodomy stuff.

I usually shut the video off after completion, too.
