'Severance' creator Dan Erickson talks about Mark, Helly, and Lumon, the show's intense fandom, and a possible third season.

Warning: Season 2 finale spoilers here!

This is an interview with the show’s creator. I’ll post my opinion on it in the thread.

    After reading the interview, it confirms for me this isn’t a show for me anymore.

    • They admit to abandoning multiple big in-progress story plot points with no resolution
    • They aren’t planning on revealing the big questions for a long time
    • They intentionally end each season in a way that makes it really hard to come back from

    And this one is a really huge nail in the Severance coffin for me:

    Q: Were you a fan of Lost?

    A: Yes.

    I hope those that are enjoying the show continue to get more of what they like watching. I’m out.

      I’ve been saying this all season, so it’s hardly surprising, but it is good to get some confirmation from the creator. I’ll keep watching for now but it will make the decision to drop the show a lot easier if it continues meandering in Season 3.
