The series picks back up where Mark and the other members of the Macrodata Refinement team left off, as they deal with the consequences of using the overtime contingency to explore the world outside the severed floor and warn people of what it's actually like working for Lumon.

Severance season 2 is finally back after three years, and it was well worth the wait. The Apple TV+ workplace drama—which explores an alternate reality where one can physically separate their personal life from their work life—successfully builds upon the first season while recapturing the thrilling twists of its memorable season 1 finale.

While “Severance” has a wonderfully creepy-compelling premise, it’s a concept better suited to a movie than a multi-episode TV series.

The first season of “Severance,” back in 2022, put a new spin on the concept of being your own boss. It took us inside the mysterious, blinding-white offices of Lumon Industries, where employees in the “macrodata refinement department” have chips implanted in their brains to partition them between a work self (the “innie”) and an out-of-office self (the “outie”).
