Season 2, Episode 8 of Severance, titled 'The After Hours,' was met with mixed reactions from fans, particularly after the previous episode, 'Sweet Vitriol.' While tackling significant plot points, the episode felt rushed, cramming major character arcs and storylines into a short runtime. Though there's excitement for the reported supersized finale, many viewers expressed disappointment in the pacing and hurried resolutions, noting how episode 8 lacked proper closure for some characters. The fandom remains engaged, debating the show's trajectory despite differing opinions on recent episodes.
After episodes 7 and 8 spent so much time with Gemma and Cobel, 'The After Hours' feels like it's cramming for the test that is the season 2 finale.
'Sweet Vitriol' was met with loads of vitriol, with fans bagging on it for ruining the pacing of season 2.
No matter how you feel about Severance's brief sojourn to Salt's Neck, we must move on because episode 9, 'The After Hours,' is here.
I understand that this is all in service of what's reportedly a supersized finale, but it feels like a lot of jigsaw puzzles just locked into place in a very short amount of time.
