Just me, or is the second episode of Severance’s second season on AppleTV+ bananas good? We’ve got Vengeful Ms. Cobel (Patricia Arquette). We’ve got Dylan (Zach Cherry) applying for a job at a door company. (“Semigloss. “That’s Hot.”) We’ve got an outie world vibe that’s giving what I call “1980’s Michigan-core.”

And mostly, it’s simply fun to see this outside world after last week’s claustrophobic puzzle that took place entirely within Lumon’s walls.
