“Severance”, a dystopian and satirical thriller aired its first episode, titled “Good News About Hell”, earlier in February. The show is created by Dan Erickson, with Ben Stiller taking on the role of director, for Apple TV+. With weekly episodes being released after the pilot, the first season ended with nine episodes on the April 8 of this year. The show takes place in a world where flip-phones and chunky monitors have survived, but somehow a company named Lumon Industries offers a high-tech medical procedure that allows their employees to completely sever their personal and professional lives.
