Things are about to get super weird next year when Apple TV+sSeverancefinally returns with its second highly anticipated season.
The new installment was announced in 2022 and began production that same year.
My takeaway from Season 1 is very similar to my takeaway in Season 2.

The first line in Season 1 is Who are you?
I think this show speaks a lot about identity and who we are to each other.
I think thats still there.
Mark leads a team of office workers whose memories have been surgically divided between their work and personal lives. When a mysterious colleague appears outside of work, it begins a journey to discover the truth about their jobs.
The curiosity doesnt leave.
Its more about their traits instead of the memories.
Its the desire to connect.
We all need to have a level of camaraderie in whatever sense that is.
That desire, that need to have a sense of community and camaraderie, is so important.
And Milchick knows that, which is why he builds these incentives.
Its not a chip in your head.
That may be the draw for this show because its a human quality.
The second season ofSeverancepremieres on January 17, 2025.
Season 1 is streaming on Apple TV+.
