Severance: Good News About Hell [1x01] ✦ Watchalong Reaction & Review

Hello there! This reaction is available as part of my "Try Before You Buy" reaction videos here on Patreon. For the TV series that I react to, I give the first episode out for free so you can experience it with me and see if you're up for joining us to continue! You must have your own copy of the episodes to watchalong as I do blur the episodes and have the audio muted. There is 45 seconds of syncing time at the start of the episode. I am not allowed to distribute the entire episodes in my videos, as this is illegal. Thank you for watching along with me!

YES, let's heckin go! So hooked in already with this first episode and can't wait to continue! 😊 Please remember to avoid ALL kinds of spoilers, hints, etc. I think there will be some other members watching for the first time too.

If anyone wants to discuss Severance freely with spoilers as I make my way through the series, a thread for that can be started in my Discord server that myself and other folks can stay out of.

For now, my plan is one episode per week, but this could potentially be bumped up to two per week later on.

Please enjoy, thank you for watching, and I'm looking forward to your comments! Direct link here.

Yeah, the pacing is great so far. Super stoked for more!

I'm so excited to find a new show where rewatching is even better than a first watch. A three year wait is painful - glad I won't have that. 😅

I love how they use a steady pace to tell the story. It lets the characters breathe and the situations play out. We have to sit in these moments and really think about them and feel them. In a way, the audience is just as much a "captive" at Lumon as the workers. This show is like a favorite ride at a theme park. It just never gets old no matter how many times it's ridden. Excited to join you for this!

This show, with a simple premise, opens up a LOT of thoughts of possibilities and consequences and theorizing and you're right, like you said that at first, you might hear the concept and say, "Oh, cool," but then you quickly start thinking of the practicality of it and go, "Oh, yeah...never mind." The show is great on rewatches since a lot of it is mystery and seeing it again, things register when they didn't very much at all, at first. Season 2 is done. I believe it completed a couple of months ago. I didn't watch this show when it first came out 'cause I kept relating it to "Succession" which I have NO desire to watch. My friend, who I just showed this show to, thought the same thing. Anyway, I watched this 1st season about a year before season 2 came out and those who watched it when it aired will tell you (loudly 😁) that they had to wait almost THREE YEARS from the end of S1 to S2. It was mostly because of pandemic issues, but still, that's a long time. I don't think it put a damper on their feelings for the show though.
