    I hadn't really given AppleTV a go - for reasons - and a
    couple of my friends recommended I check out Severance.
    Its a super intense dystopian satire that nets out to never
    being able to leave the office. I'm 100% hooked. Any
    other fans?

    I don't like the term "fan", short for fanatic. Instead, I
    *like'd* the storyline and I *like'd" watching it. :D

    It seemed a bit slow in the 1st 2 episodes, but by the 3rd one
    it kicked off very nicely.

    You said "about.. never being able to leave the office". That's
    half true. The other half is about "not knowing what goes on
    in the office" ..and both aspects are theoretically a benefit
    for the working society.

    Severance was pretty good. The cliffhanger at the end of the
    last espisode was both a good slow-burn "reveal" as well as a
    fine cliffhanger.

    People talk about technology fixing anything. Can it fix or
    aide the separation of the work/home environments?

    I heard the writers strike is impacting the production of Season 2
    of Severance and it's killing me inside.

    I heard the writers strike is impacting the production of Season 2
    of Severance and it's killing me inside.

    Hopefully impacting as in "delayed", rather than "Good enough, let's start shooting."

    I can wait a few more months, but it will be incredibly sad if all that buildup is squandered.
