[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn't check to see if it's already been mentioned but I couldn't get through Severence after 1.5 or maybe it was 2.5 seasons.  Reminded me of WestWorld where every other episode the "big reveal" was that an innie was actually an outie (or in West World, a human was actually a robot).  And the office lighting, and drab office stuff, was just not something I could make myself look forward to watching after a day at work. [/quote]

I loved Severence (the last 10 minutes of Season 1, wow) but certainly understand how it might not be for everyone.  Your complaint is odd, though, because the only time it isn't clear who is in/out is when she is faking being an innie during the "retreat" episode by the lake.

Side note - Westworld qualifies as one of the shows that fell off the hardest from a great Season 1.[/quote]

I did love the end of Season 1 of Severence I will absolutely admit to that!  Maybe I'm not remembering exactly well, I thought the old lady who was the lonely busybody neighbor in the real world but the boss in the office world, at one point was actually the boss the whole time and was only pretending to be the busybody neighbor?  And then didn't the main character also try to combine his characters so that he was aware of both inside and outside time or something? Maybe I should have given it more time, but as soon as multiple characters were shown to be aware of both worlds at the same time, it gave me those awful west world vibes.   Without spoilers, do you think it's worth finishing?  I did like the Hellie character's badass stuff at the end of season 1 and I liked the characters figuring out more stuff.  I did NOT like the endless office scenes and i didn't like them exploring around the office like alice in wonderland finding other pockets of office work.  I didn't really care about the office work but maybe once it becomes clear what work theyre doing, ill like it? I'll follow whatever you recommend, stranger on the internet. [/quote]
