The Brilliance of Severance's Disturbing Precision
Thomas Flight · Mar 2025
We read them all: the case for is tessa.tv's, funniest is hana.watches's. Marked below.
An office as a haunted house. It knows exactly how much to explain, which is almost nothing.
The only show that made an office corridor frightening. The season one finale is the tightest hour I have seen since Ozymandias, and I do not say that lightly.
A workplace show that is actually about the self, told with a control freak's precision. The finale is the tightest hour of television I have seen.
A few lines from each review; the whole review is on the critic's site. Not part of Taste Buds's numbers.
Adam Scott, Christopher Walken and Patricia Arquette star in an idiosyncratic, intelligent comedy-drama where workers’ brains are separated into work and home halves
