Prev, Adam Scott isn't the writer of this series. He is an "executive producer" because he sometimes suggests character decisions.

If I had a nickel

i just know that the 'brad is abed' people from 2021 would've gone crazy for the don draper bit in the new ep

I did clock that, and I'm happy they did that for us

aggregation of several threads w/ similar observations

Prev, the fun thing about Severance is that Helena is still technically single, and we love it

I knew that this must have been the way it happened, but it's good to finally get confirmation that the shot was used in the show

They don't call it a "hit" series for nothing!!

Britt Lower sees the GemHelly vision

one really interesting piece of characterization in Mythic Quest is that Brad, despite being, you know, Brad, is basically the HR dept in Carol's metaphorical absence. the guy is constantly comedically pointing out non-PC things people said or did (occasionally for his own evil ends but sometimes seemingly just so that people will course-correct) and I love that dynamic

Y’know, apart from that one time :’)

My unpopular opinion that will have me like this is that Helly / Helena and Gemma don’t need to become friends simply to bridge the fandom. Especially if it makes no narrative sense. Don’t change the narrative for fanservice. Like, ever.

Work together? Sure. Have a moment of empathy? Sure. Woman to woman respect? Sure. Have a conservation? Sure.

I think it’s good not to push it, since both of them have already been through so much traumatizing shit. Just respect their boundaries, especially Gemma. I want her to become her own character.

Outside of oMark / iMark / Helly / Helena which will only continue to develop in Season 3.

Her husband has moved on to some degree, the creep who told her that wasn’t entirely wrong. Mark felt something for Helena (source: Ben Stiller and Adam Scott) and he’s “madly” in love with Helly (source: Adam Scott) and it’s perfectly fine if she’s not in a rush to become friends with Helly. That’s her choice.

The woman has had her mind split 25 times, give her a break. You know?

I think the average person’s response to “hey, so your husband is madly in love with another woman, and I know you’ve been married for 4 years, but would you mind stepping down as his wife and just being his girlfriend from now on and sitting on that cuck chair in the corner of the room while they bang” would be “um… no?”

And that’s 100% valid.

Anyways there’s my unpopular take. If they do become friends, it has to make sense in the narrative. Not forced. But mostly I just want Gemma to be her own character.

Not rely on Mark or Helly.

I'm not sure if Mark Scout moved on, but he did sleep with Alexa in season one, which will have caused other issues
