I'm waiting for all the episodes to release so I can binge them all

I couldn't possibly do that, I just finished a rewatch of season 1. Waiting is the way to go if you have self control, which I do not

Brief spoilers for episode 1.
For the first 15 minutes I was thinking none of the team were back given the long gap between seasons and time skip(?).....Phew. Also the ginger bird, Halley is at it I reckon possibly the outie version playing double agent?. Also did everyone clock Keanu Reeves???????
I think spoilers for the episode should be out in the open after it has aired personally but im airing on the side of caution until everyone has at least seen the first one.

The fact the outtie en Innie are different people but still the same. Also if the innie goes out and the outtie decides to quit the innie would be 'dead'. Fucks a bit with my mind. Also just the mistery about what they are working on. Hopefully not some bullshit LOST situation.
Great idea for a show, gotta hand it to Ben Stiller.

Yeah the longer you think about it the further down the rabbit hole you go.
Sounds like they have the arc laid out unlike LOST, hopefully. Its very clever, i can't imagine making something this good up as they go along.

I don’t know if I go back and watch severance season 1 years from now it works for the times and we don’t know how it will age, LOST, Dexter etc. today feel eh, brilliant shows but I don’t know. Breaking bad I thought was perfect and can still work today.
My issue with the situation is that the "innie" personality basically never leaves work. Granted, there are little rewards given to them, but the basic human need for some level of release and relaxation is totally absent. They can't even 'sleep' really, its basically 24/7 work from their perspective.
Obviously you can see the cracks this causes in the characters, but my issue is with the very notion that this is some sort of sustainable business practice AT ALL. It's an even more extreme version of the Phillip K. Dick "Paycheck" story, where a guy does a stretch of work that he will later have wiped. Ben Affleck was in the film version. But in that idea the person had a "normal" life on the job, they just wouldn't remember whatever horrible thing they had to do LATER. I think that's a more interesting "human condition" topic, what would someone do, what horrors, if they KNEW it would be scrubbed from their mind? I'm not sure that's what we are seeing in Severence, unless that weird computer program they use is actually them killing babies or something and it's just what is shown to the audience to keep them in the dark as to the actual nature of their work (I don't think that's the case).
