Critical Acclaim:
This critically acclaimed and award-winning television series from Apple TV+ has earned praises from critics and fans alike.
“Stiller, who directed six of the show’s nine episodes, is emerging as a preeminent television auteur.” – Naomi Fry, New Yorker
“At once minimalist and epic, an increasingly tense exploration of free-will and corporate sadism. It gains a thriller-like momentum as it moves along, and can be disturbing enough to be nightmarish, yet still maintains a modicum of mischievous wit.” – John Doyle, New Yorker
“It combines the paranoia of a ’70s thriller with the dehumanizing vastness of Stanley Kubrick’s visionary stories of characters becoming overwhelmed by the environmental forces engulfing them.” – Robert Levin, Newsday
“Severance is part workplace satire, part dystopian thriller – a combination that is hard to pull off, but writer Dan Erickson has managed it.” – Anita Singh, Daily Telegraph (UK)
“An impressively idiosyncratic thing, wholly itself and confident in its mission to make your mind implode.” – Lucy Mangan, Guardian
” As high concept television goes, Severance is pretty lofty, but its ambition is compelling — not least because it might just be the bulls— jobs backlash we’ve been waiting for.” – Leonie Cooper, Independent (UK)
Award-Worthy:
SEVERANCE was nominated for every major award that recognizes achievements in television.
2023 Winner of Peabody Award for Entertainment
2023 Winner of AFI Award for TV Program of the Year
2023 Winner of Critics Choice Super Awards – Sci-Fi Fantasy Series – Best Actor (Adam Scott), Best Actress (Patricia Arquette)
