    Did you create the show and the lore? No? Then how can you say that it’s “losing itself”?

    I’m pretty sure Ben Stiller, and the rest, knew where the show was going to go in Season 2 from the start. Just because it’s going in a different direction than you thought, doesn’t mean it’s “losing itself.”

      What a bizarre reply…

      Did you create the show and the lore?

      No.

      Then how can you say that it’s “losing itself”?

      I am able to form opinions on the show because I have watched it.

      I’m pretty sure Ben Stiller, and the rest, knew where the show was going to go in Season 2 from the start.

      Oh, yeah no I’m not quoting Ben Stiller good catch, this is my own opinion I formed by watching the show.

      Just because it’s going in a different direction than you thought, doesn’t mean it’s “losing itself.”

      Agreed. It’s losing itself for other reasons.

      Does that help?

      I get your argument, but look at Westworld. It started amazingly but stepped away from what it was and it definitely lost itself. Surely they had a plan as well.

      That said, I don’t quite agree Severance is losing itself. The finale firmly sets the path forward.
