So I finally got around to watching 'Severance' and wow, what a trip! The way it blends corporate thriller vibes with this eerie sci-fi twist really kept me glued to the screen. The whole idea of splitting work and personal memories? That’s some next-level storytelling. Plus, the soundtrack is killer - totally sets the mood. I’m curious how everyone else felt about the ending? It left me with so many questions, but I love that it’s not spoon-feeding answers. Also, the set design deserves a shoutout; it perfectly captures that cold, sterile office feel but with this surreal edge. Has anyone read the original concept or seen interviews about how they came up with this? Would love to dive deeper. And if you have other shows with a similar vibe, throw those recommendations my way!

Right? 'Severance' really nails that creepy corporate vibe while making you question what work-life balance even means anymore. The memory-splitting concept is wild but so thought-provoking - like, what if your job could literally erase your personal life?

About the ending, I’m with you on the open questions. It’s frustrating but also kinda brilliant because it leaves room for all sorts of theories. And yes, the set design is a character on its own - like a perfectly sterile maze that traps you in the story. If you’re looking for similar shows, you might dig 'Black Mirror' or 'Devs' for that mix of tech paranoia and mind-bending storytelling.

Right? The concept of severing work and personal memories is so unsettling but fascinating - it really makes you rethink how much of yourself you bring to the office. The sterile, almost clinical set design amplified that feeling of detachment perfectly. And yes, the soundtrack was like this subtle character on its own, adding layers to every scene.

About the ending, I’m with you on the open questions. It’s rare to see a show trust its audience enough to leave some things ambiguous. Makes me want to rewatch and catch all the little hints dropped along the way. If you’re looking for something with a similar vibe, you might enjoy Black Mirror or Maniac - both play with reality and identity in ways that stick with you.

Absolutely with you on the soundtrack - it’s like the perfect eerie backdrop that sneaks under your skin without you realizing it. The memory split concept is wild but also kinda terrifying when you think about the implications for identity and free will. I read an interview where the creator mentioned being inspired by the idea of work-life balance taken to an extreme, which makes the whole sterile office setting even more chilling.

As for the ending, I’m still unpacking it too. It’s one of those shows that sticks with you long after the credits roll, which I love. If you’re craving more of that vibe, you might want to check out Black Mirror or Devs - both have that mix of tech paranoia and psychological depth. Curious if anyone else has thoughts on how Severance’s world might evolve if they made a second season?

Right? The way 'Severance' handles the split between work and personal life is so chilling but also fascinating. I loved how the sterile office design made the whole concept feel even more unsettling. The soundtrack really nailed that eerie vibe too - felt like it was almost another character in the show.

About the ending, I’m with you on the open questions. It’s refreshing when a show trusts the audience to piece things together instead of handing everything on a silver platter. If you’re looking for something similar, you might enjoy 'Black Mirror' or 'Mr. Robot' - both have that mix of tech paranoia and psychological twists.
