‘Severance’ has a great premise, strong atmosphere, and is overall made very well. Except it’s stretched beyond measure. The second season in particular has lots of shots where absolutely nothing is happening, just some landscapes or whatever for minutes on end. It’s painfully obvious that Apple or whoever decided they’re gonna have twenty seasons instead of three.
I like Kubrick a lot, love the space station shots in ‘2001’, and even then when in ‘Spartacus’ platoons of soldiers were marching to formation for ten minutes, I straight up fell asleep in my chair. I certainly don’t want an entire show of this, especially with the possibility of it ending nowhere.
