        Because every popular show gets milked to death and executives start interjecting stupid ideas and ruin it. They already had a filler episode in season 2.

          It’s not a filler episode just because it doesn’t include the main characters. The episode where Cobel goes home provided a shit ton of context and back story. For example, ether mines? Everyone in the town huffing ether and in some bizarre capitalist cult that used child labor? The fuck? That just made me want to know more about all of that shit.

          How/why is that filler? Unless I’m wrong about which episode you’re referring to, which I doubt.

            It was five minutes worth of content stretched into 45 minutes. It was boring af. We learned that she designed something, but other than that, we didn’t really get anything out of it.

      I love the first two seasons of Severance, but even if the third will be bad, it won’t affect my feelings towards the first two.

      Unless it’s GoT season 8 levels of bad, but that’s probably not possible.
