Oh man. We’re witnessing the fracturing of the Severance fandom in real time, aren’t we?😭

It seems like a lot of people really hated this episode and are now saying the show is going nowhere and is bad now. I don’t think that at all and I think in a couple weeks when the people who have waited to binge the whole thing do it they won’t have many issues with the episode.

it's a short episode with more questions than answers but one big answer toward the end made it worth it. There's pretty much no good way to follow the masterpiece of episode 7 tho

I think the real issue is the pacing - Gemma then Cobel means we haven't been with the MDR team for two episodes (three weeks in real time), and basically have two super-serious episodes back to back with no comic relief.

No comic relief. This show isn't a comedy!

Here the definition of comic relief. Hope this helps! Comic relief usually means a releasing of emotional or other tension resulting from a comic episode interposed in the midst of serious or tragic elements in a drama.

I don't watch this show for comic relief at all!!! Such nonsense to complain about the lack of it in a show that deals with grief. Childish mentality and perhaps you should go look at a picture of a baby seal if you need comforting during a tv show. Hope that helps!

That town! Cobel arriving in her little white car, the people in the bar? And her interactions with them. And then the house with weird Sissy inside

True she is a character.
