I think Severance S2 is pretty great, but I'm probably rating it lower than the majority of people. It has some of the best content in the show so far, particularly the finale as well as episode 7, which was one of the best episodes I've ever seen in any show, let alone this one. However, I did feel there were also some weaker episodes away from the severed floor and that S2 felt ultimately a bit disjointed. Compared to the tight-knit focus of S1 and its steady progression, there were definitely some structural problems here. I think the finale of S1, as perfect as it was, made it impossible to put a lid back on the show. S2 simply could not have worked in the same way as the primary season - the writers had no choice but to expand away from the innies, and as a result we get more bottle episodes and less of a slow progression that I loved so much about the show initially. However, I also think they handled it very well. S2 is brimming full of quality and worth the 3 year wait.
