In a shocking twist that no one saw coming (except maybe everyone), Apple TV+ has announced a third season of its hit series "Severance." This news arrives just one day after the now-legendary Season 2 finale, leaving fans to either celebrate or wonder why they are emotionally invested in a show about people working in a dystopian office setting while grappling with existential dread. The series has catapulted into the streaming stratosphere, now holding the title of Apple TV+'s most-watched show ever. Apparently, viewers can't get enough of watching characters clock in and out of their sterile office environment while they socially distance themselves from any semblance of personal identity. This is particularly true for those who find themselves in cubicles or facing Zoom calls, where the biggest thrill of the day might be two minutes of awkward silence before someone remembers to mute their microphone. Created by Dan Erickson and helmed by Ben Stiller—who has traded his comedic chops for a darkly satirical examination of workplace culture—the show stars Adam Scott as Mark Scout. He embodies the modern employee experience, where work-life balance is literally a surgical procedure. Yes, for those who have ever daydreamed about swiping away their personal lives in favor of a soul-sucking job, this show is basically the corporate dystopia you didn’t know you wanted. As the season unfolds, viewers are treated to Mark's dual existence: the "innie" who thrives under the oppressive confines of the office and the "outie" who grapples with the unbearable weight of loss and minimalism. The concept raises a tantalizing question: if work is more fulfilling than personal relationships, where do we sign up? Critics are raving about the show’s ability to marry office politics with a haunting sense of identity crisis, comparing it to an episode of "Black Mirror" that somehow made it to a lunch break at your local Applebee's. Perhaps it's this convoluted mixture of existential themes and the subtle humor of watching people emotionally unravel that keeps fans returning to the series like moths to a flickering fluorescent bulb. As Season 3 looms on the horizon, speculation abounds regarding the potential plot twists. Will we see our characters face additional workplace horrors, such as mandatory team-building retreats or, heaven forbid, the dreaded performance review? Will Mark finally learn how to differentiate between his Gmail and corporate email accounts without receiving a form of HR intervention? One thing is for sure: the world can’t get enough of watching these workers drown in their own despair while drowning in their coffee cups. Apple TV+ seems ready to keep the existential crisis going, and for that, a grateful audience is ready to clock in, whether they want to or not. So grab your notepad, put on your most professional "I'm not in therapy" face, and prepare for a workplace environment that’s all about severing ties—especially to your own sanity.
