Pro tip: Binging a show in one weekend ruins the experience, fight me lol
People act like finishing a season in two days is the goal, but you miss all the small details and character growth. I watched 'Severance' over a month and caught way more clues than my friend who rushed it. Who else thinks slow watching is better?

Totally agree on Severance. That show is a puzzle box. Did you find yourself going back to rewatch specific scenes during that month, or was it more about letting each episode sit with you for a few days?

Oh man, @paige_patel84, I did both. I'd let an episode sit for a day, but then I'd go back to check small things. Like, I rewatched the scene where Mark talks to his sister a bunch. Her face when he can't remember basic stuff about their mom? That told a whole story. It wasn't about the big mystery, but about how the job wrecked his real life. Those quiet moments built the dread more than any big twist.

I actually have to disagree with you there, parkergarcia. I think those quiet moments with his sister felt a little too on the nose, like the show was trying too hard to make you feel bad for him. If anything, the bigger twists are what kept me from dropping it entirely, and @paige_patel84 might back me up on this.
