Following the release of season two's finale, Apple today announced that its hit show "Severance" has been renewed for a third season.

In a press release, Apple said that severance broke records as the most watched series on Apple TV+. Severance follows employees at a mysterious corporation who undergo a procedure that surgically divides their work memories from their personal ones, creating two separate consciousnesses. The story follows them as they begin to uncover the truths behind the company and the costs of these split identities.



The show comes from director and executive producer Ben Stiller and creator, writer and executive producer Dan Erickson. Apple has not yet revealed when season three may be released. The complete first and second seasons of Severance are now streaming globally on Apple TV+.

I wish sometimes these shows would just have a satisfying ending. This is going to be another show that just drags on and on and will slowly degrade over time. The constant cliff hangers to these series without closure just gets annoying to me. I know some people are really happy about this but sometimes shows just need to end in my opinion.

Then you end up with a series like Ted Lasso, which ends nicely after a few seasons, then a year or two later somebody decides to wring blood from a stone and convinces most of the cast to come back for just one more season (and another...) until it also degrades.
 
A lot of people these days have no patience. They need to be spoon fed everything and have it all spelt out very quickly.

If you’re equipped with a 30 second TikTok attention span, shows like Severance would be a nightmare to watch.

In saying that, I found the majority of season 2 to be less enjoyable compare to season 1. However in hindsight, it was required, I’m glad they did it, and it did answer a few mysteries.

I thought the S2 ending was fantastic. It was ironic that Cold Harbour’s purpose had a better test subject. Being vague to avoid spoiling things.

The show covers many interesting philosophical conundrum’s.

Excellent work.

Disagree. See ended after three seasons and has a finale.
