We can hardly believe it, but, after waiting almost THREE WHOLE YEARS*, fans of Apple TV+'s Severance are days away from finally getting a second season of the show.

Yes, you read that correctly: The Season 1 finale of Severance was in April of...2022.

When we last saw our "Innies" at Lumon, all of our collective jaws were on the floor when we found out that Helly isn't like every other Innie at the company — she's actually an Eagan, aka a member of the family that owns Lumon.

And though audiences had many, many questions after the finale, we're so close to getting some answers since Season 2 is picking up right after the events of the end of Season 1.
