Severance (on Apple TV+).
This series reminds me of a video game called SOMA as well as a concept that is fascinating to me: having your memory split into two distinct copies with no guarantee as to which one you’ll inhabit.
Needless to say, I was hooked straight away.
This series reminds me of a video game called SOMA as well as a concept that is fascinating to me: having your memory split into two distinct copies with no guarantee as to which one you’ll inhabit.
In this scenario, you’ll either manifest at work with no recollection of how you got there and who you were before and ultimately attempt to leave work only to manifest right where you started, or you’ll start your day leaving work with no recollection of what you did for the past 8 hours and ultimately attempt to return to work the next morning only to exit the building straight away and retire for the day. Either way, both copies are stuck in their respective loops—their own version of hell.
