Data emisji: Wrz 19, 2025

For years, the Mystery Box formula has been blamed for some of TV’s most frustrating finales — shows that pile on endless questions but rarely deliver satisfying answers. So when Ben Stiller’s Severance returned for Season 2, fans wondered: would it fall into the same trap, or finally break the cycle? With the Season 2 premiere, the answer became clear — Severance isn’t just making mysteries, it’s telling a carefully mapped-out story. Instead of leaning on cheap teases, the series proves it has a plan, giving fans confidence in where this strange, brilliant show is headed.
