Severance has got everyone and their grandma in a trance right now. We all wish we could sever our brains just to be able to re-watch this glorious TV show with fresh eyes for a second time. Many also might wish that they could undergo the sci-fi procedure so as not to feel the dreadful limbo of time between episodes. Sure, it's just a week, but it feels eternal when you're left with a cliffhanger at the end of every episode.
The first season hooked millions of fans, but with a three-year gap between seasons, it's a miracle that it has picked up steam again. It's not just luck; the show is downright amazing. It's shot beautifully, the performances are top-notch, and while every frame is riddled with clues for sleuthing fans, it does not hold anyone's hand as we descend down the elevator to the severed floor and beyond. If you're perusing the internet for fan theories after each episode and bringing up melon bars, music dance experiences, and ORTBOs at your own office job, scroll down for some coveted memes to show off in the break room.

Me and everyone I know has been calling him Mr. Milkshake since the dawn of season 2. It's such a fun nickname for such a terrifying man.
