What to Know

Critics Consensus

Masterfully managing its two halves of adroit character study and surreal nightmare, Severance's long-awaited sophomore season makes cognitive dissonance a mind-melting pleasure.

Clarisse Loughrey Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Now that Severance has started to prod at these more existential questions about the self - well, it’s only made the show richer and, quite frankly, more loveable. Apr 3, 2025 Full Review Emily Bootle New Statesman The redemption arc in many modern stories is a character finding themselves; there is no such neatness here. Severance shows us that if there is a true self, it is elusive, fleeting, transformed before you can grab it. Mar 21, 2025 Full Review Caroline Framke Boston Globe In order to enjoy “Severance,” I just don’t need -- or even really want -- to explicitly understand every part of it. Sometimes, a room full of goats can just be a room full of goats. Mar 20, 2025 Full Review William Schwartz Book & Film Globe That’s the crux of the genius of Severance and why it’s a show that only really works in a weekly format. There is no mystery if you can binge-watch the show. Aug 6, 2025 Full Review Victor Pineyro Seventh Art Studio The way this show presents the grays in its extremely new and unexplored premise is what keeps the momentum going. Technically impressive, Severance S2 puts much of its pressure on the magnificent acting skills of its cast. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 9/10 Jul 23, 2025 Full Review Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? An impressive ride that lives up to the promise of the first while also laying a foundation to ensure better pacing for the third. We might not have fewer questions, but those queries are much more focused now. Rated: 8/10 Apr 4, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Jonathan F Season one, kept your attention by believing the writers were going to reveal all the interesting mysteries they created. It was fine that it was slow and methodical. Season two was the biggest waste of my television watching life. It dragged, didn’t answer many of the interesting mysteries, and went off on a way too many irrelevant tangents. The writers clearly had no idea where it should go or are just not good writers. Terribly disappointed and a complete waste of time. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/12/25 Full Review Armin S Season two delivers a thunderous continuation with everything we've come to expect (outstanding visuals, memorable characters, emotional depth). The greatest aspect of season two is undoubtedly the character development. It really reinforces a lot of the character aspects and builds on them in the best way possible. The entire season (especially towards the end) is a display of some of the finest cinematic experience I've have seen in years. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/08/25 Full Review Juaqin R Genuinely the biggest waste of my time. I considered every single episode of this show to be a top 3 show of all time. It was a little hard to watch here and there, but I trusted that it would get better. And it did get better the end of season 1 was one of the greatest episodes of tv I’ve ever seen. Then they ruined the whole ***king show with the last episode of season 2. I was so excited that everything was gonna end great and then the worst character development ever comes along and ruins the entire show. I thought I hated Ms. Cobel’s character with a passion, but Helly R. pissed me off more than I thought a tv show could. Honestly, I would recommend not watching this show at all because of how horrendously terrible the last episode is. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/06/25 Full Review Aviv G Don't watch this show. I urge you. It starting off as pure genious, and alongside its very annoying parts, the first season is still spectacular. BUT, the second season (that you will have to watch after watching the first one) is utterly disturbing, most annoying, as if they made their best to irritate you and make you angry and literally wanting to mercilessly slaughter several characters. I found myself getting angry pretty much every episode in season 2 due to the very upsetting and most annoying plot. Do yourselves a favour - skip it. I never want to watch ANYTHING these guys write. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/03/25 Full Review Ashlee B. best show of the year. not sure what folks were watching to give this season less than 4 stars. u are not a TV enjoyer. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/30/25 Full Review Lesim U 2nd season felt like they just wanted to give room to a third season. It felt like a waste of time watching all these episodes. They could've summarized the key parts of this season in 2 episodes! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/24/25 Full Review Read all reviews
