Where Does Severance Go From Here?

Wonderfully summarized, as always. Thank you for this. I've been tellling myself that Season Two is the middle movie or book in a trilogy. It's The Two Towers. It's The Empire Strikes Back. Narratively, our heroes are reacting to the antagonistic force and just trying to get away from it. In Season Three, we've got to have a Return of the Jedi. The heroes have to go on the offensive. That's clear. But your video brings up an interesting point. And that validates how complex and wonderfully-written Severance really is. The antagonistic force changes. In Seasons One and Two, it was Lumon. Now, it might very well be outie Mark! Or innie Mark! Whose side are we on? Who do we want to get the happily ever after? It occurs to me that there is no resolution that satisfies all players. If one Mark wins, the other must lose. It is strangely like the plight of people whose homeland has been taken over by a colonial power who, centuries later, are due reparations and all parties acknowledge that they cannot turn back the calendar. Severance has occured and now we have to deal with the messy consequences. Although I think the focus of the show has changed from Season One, it is still a critique of capitalism, and shows us clearly that treating people like commodities harms everyone, including the people profiting from the capital. Mark is a slave, but so is Milchick and Cobel, and even Helena and Jame. All are crushed by the wheels of industry. Thanks for this video, Andrew.
