This is a recreation of a fictional computer program from the excellent Apple TV show - Severance.

The work is mysterious, and important.

Season 2 is going now. It’s one of my top 3 shows of the last decade, highly recommend it.

Agreed. I think "The Americans" is still at the top of my list for the last decade then it's a tossup between "The Leftovers", "Severance" and "Mr. Robot".

Edit: I forgot "Andor". Easily the best Star Wars thing since the original 3. I like how it shows the hubris and infighting of The Empire and how that leaves openings for the resistance. Feels like a very real look into the workings of an authoritarian regime.

Mr. Robot had one of the craziest endings I have ever seen in a show. I'll admit I had a tough time watching it around S2 because so much was unexplained, and I felt like I was going insane.

So glad I stuck it out though, I still think about it.

Yeah, it takes a while to figure out that the narrator is unreliable... oh, don't want to spoiler it.

I hope Sam Esmail is working on something else for us.
