i have been thinking critically about severance and yeah if i was watching this from s1 and waiting the hiatus for this s2 i would have been dissapointed. a whining bitch even.
#in the sense that 'i am the problem' way lmao#like if you were married to the office sci fi parody sit com horror#that stuff is only present in the first two maybe three episodes#if you treat it as a mystery box youre gonna be annoyed by the slow pacing and characters' inability to talk about it#the old man yaoi is pretty much dropped. it is cute and tactful but we say goodbye to the espionage plot#the bottle episodes are brilliant but they take us away from the main cast#and so on#like this is a beautiful told story#and the questions posed are not yet answered even when we get more context#s1 is equally slow but the lumon only placement ground us with the circumstances. the innies want out#the narrative is engaging and the characters are lastimosamente too real because theyre not doing speeches about motivations/exposition#so when we are outside and with the gemma question we are juggling other circumstances#the depth of the characters just dont lend itself to serve the action sci fi#but yes to the core of the themes. we are shown each pov and have new connundrums#anyways. as always thinking about yj that i started wathing in edible complex#and still hated it halfway to s2 and much more the finale#like i love s2e07 but it was stupid af and so many dynamics already put on hold for that to happen#thats the difference between good writing and bad writting but also i can see why casual viewer wouldnt like s2 too much#is too much changes and little neat answers. because the story isnt as simple to give a cute shippable closure
