I also thought it was great.

But I think I'm at that point where I don't want to start watching a show until its run is over. "Severance" was the straw that broke the camels bank. They didn't answer any of the central secrets (what are they doing, why are they there, etc) and I'm tired of waiting years for answers.

If we don’t at least watch each season as it comes out the show will be cancelled before they ever get to end it. I’m not gonna start watching a season until all the episodes are available but I can’t expect them to just make seasons and seasons of television for me without showing them some sort of return.

Make sense. But Severance is a hit. And Apple+ will want many seasons. Its safe.

Flip side is something like 1899 on Netflix. They cancelled it after S1. So why invest if they are only going to cancel it. From now on I'll just wait. If its a hit, there will be more seasons. If not, then no reason to watch in first place. Win-win.

It’s a hit because people have been watching it as it’s released. Do you see the flaw in your reasoning?

Its a hit whether I watch it or not. I'm just 1 person. So its a win-win for me irregardless. No flaw in reasoning.
