Oh hey! Gemma doesn’t know that Mark is severed so when he runs away with Helly R she just thinks it’s her husband choosing another woman over her. Have a great weekend!

Re: Severance
Part of the reason love this show so much is because it gives zero fucks about instant gratification, and it isn’t afraid to leave a lot of loose ends hanging out there. It’s about the build up: slow and methodical. Game of Thrones was like that for me. So when something like the last episode unfolds, it unintentionally leaves me feeling like they rushed things (just like that, Gemma and Mark are reunited and Gemma is freed). It’s like the show is a victim of its own greatness.

Why yes, I did see a TikTok that had the last scene of the finale with “Silver Springs” playing over it.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Re: Severance
I think you have the right approach to this season. Mine was basically “ what the fuck this meaanssss tell meee” and it’s been a frustrating one but I still enjoyed it

If you don't care about these characters, I can't imagine you'll be able to maximize your enjoyment of the show.
