Wow. The Season 2 finale of Severance was nothing short of brilliant. Apple TV+ has done it again, delivering a masterpiece that feels like the best thing since Lost. But unlike many mystery-box shows, Severance gives you answers while keeping you hooked with even more questions.

At the heart of this show is the creepy and mysterious Lumon corporation, where workers undergo a procedure to "sever" their consciousness. This creates two separate identities: the "Innie" who only exists inside the company, and the "Outie" who lives life outside with no memory of their work life. But here’s where things get really fascinating: these Innies develop their own personalities, goals, and emotions—sometimes conflicting completely with their Outies.

Season 2’s finale raised some major philosophical questions: What defines a person’s worth? Are these Innies any less human just because their lives are limited to the workplace? Are people only valuable because of the work they do? The series makes you think hard about the dignity of human life and how easy it is to diminish someone’s humanity when you’re only focused on productivity.

The finale brought so much emotion and intensity, including some shocking moments of violence that felt earned rather than gratuitous. And the cinematography? Absolutely stunning. From the symmetrical framing to the retro aesthetics, it’s clear Apple is pouring serious money into making this show a work of art.

Now, we have to brace ourselves for what looks like a long wait until Season 3. But I’m willing to bet it’ll be worth it. In the meantime, I’ll be obsessing over the theories and unanswered questions left dangling at the end of this season.
