thank you so much for the compliments wow!! and OMG..... that's so cool that you're interested in what i have to say
i have sooo many thoughts about the show . aside from what i would praise about the general cinematography and color grading and what theories i have, i feel like i have a lot of thoughts about the story and characterization under a sociological lens. without too many spoilers, i absolutely love how brilliant the latest episode (s2e7). i said a lot about it on my tumblr so there's a good chance you already saw... i was really overwhelmed in that episode by the topics and emotions it presented and sooo impressed with it's carefulness to say the least. i love the show itself because i generally love psychological thrillers and commentary on capitalism. with the help of someone else's interpretation of the show, i just made a newly conscious realization that severance is, at its core, a show about capitalism and what lengths people would go to avoid experiencing it--lessening the direct influence (that they feel they cannot escape due to the indirect influences) that it has on their lives.... i'm also curious to know more about the politics surrounding the severance procedure. i know that's not the direct focus in the show and that they do show a bit of it in the first season and an even tinier bit in the second season but i can't help but wonder how it might reflect the values of our current society. i have a lot more to say about the characters themselves and their motivations but i'm not sure what i want to talk about without rambling here hehe... and i've written so much here so that'll be it for now
if you ever want to talk about it, i'm so open to asks/dm's on tumblr...!
