Severance

by

Sure thing… Let’s discuss “Severance“, a show I’ve often suggested as one of the finest on Apple TV+, even though I haven’t had a chance to watch all episodes recently.

Back then, I remember eagerly watching and appreciating the initial episodes when the characters first appeared, but due to various life obligations, I didn’t get a chance to complete the series. With the upcoming 2025 television premiere schedule stirring up even more curiosity about goats, I realized it was high time for me to buckle down and finish this show and stay updated – so I decided to renew my Apple TV+ subscription.

As a cinephile, let me tell you, “Severance” has been an absolutely thrilling journey! This series is unique in sparking both puzzled “wait a minute…” and stunned “Wow!” moments within the same episode. Each episode of “Severance” takes me on a rollercoaster ride of anticipation and surprise, leaving me constantly theorizing and guessing what will happen next. I must confess, I didn’t think I would become as captivated by it as I have!

You may be curious about another topic I’d like to discuss? The character from this series that sends chills down my spine just as effectively as any horror movie – at times even more so – and I find it challenging to get scared, so let’s delve deeper into the Severed Floor together.

Patricia Arquette’s Ms. Cobel Is Great As Season 1’s Main Antagonist

It can’t be argued that Patricia Arquette is not a top-tier star. After all, she earned an Academy Award, and before that, she had been recognized with a Primetime Emmy nomination for her portrayal of Ms. Cobel.

Initially, she appears enigmatic, keeping us guessing about her true intentions whether as Cobel or Mrs. Selvig. However, as the first season unfolds, we begin to witness more of her characteristics – including her volatile side shown by throwing a mug at Mark and much more. In fact, in Season 2, she comes close to hitting him with a vehicle. She’s definitely intimidating, although it’s clear that when she faced Mark, her actions weren’t solely driven by malice.

In truth, Ms. Cobel serves her purpose within the system, and although she will undoubtedly play a significant role in Season 2 and beyond for the Severance series, it wasn’t so much her character that deeply resonated with me – especially in Season 2.

But it’s Milchick Who Concerns And Scares Me Even More In Season 2

Mr. Milchick, man…he scares me.

Frankly, I didn’t anticipate feeling as strongly about it. There are numerous aspects of Season 2 of Severance that warrant excitement, such as the mind-blowing opening scene, collaborating with talented actors like Gwendoline Christie, or even an unexpected appearance by Keanu Reeves. However, my attention is consistently drawn to Milchick.

Ms. Cobalt is stern, frosty, and wrathful, while Mr. Milchick balances her out with his enigmatic demeanor and soft-spoken gaze. You’d think you know nothing about him just by looking at him. Initially, he appears to be more considerate towards the inhabitants, hosting parties for them, offering benefits, but it’s the way he carries himself – particularly that dance scene in Season 1 – that leaves me feeling uneasy.

After those instances, he remains an enigmatic, peculiar individual about whom we barely know anything, which only adds to the eerie intrigue surrounding him. His personal life, including his family and private self, remain a mystery since he’s not open, making him even more unsettling to me.

As a devotee of chilling horror films, I often find myself captivated by Milchick, and not because he fits the usual stereotypes or triggers a flight response. Instead, it’s his composed demeanor during tense moments that leaves an indelible mark on me – one that lingers and refuses to be shaken off.

The Acting Performance From Tramell Tillman Is Outstanding

A truly memorable character often needs a standout portrayal, and in the case of this role, Tramell Tillman certainly delivered an outstanding performance that deserves recognition.

The way he manages to portray Milchick and develop this intriguing, mysterious character leaves you feeling baffled. Despite his eyes, there appears to be no trace of his true identity exposed. He has constructed a barrier so robust, it’s as if it’s made of unyielding iron. And I find myself in awe of that strength and resilience.

As an ardent follower, I can’t quite predict where the story of Severance will unfold next, but I sense there’ll be plenty more of him in store, and I’m eagerly ready to tag along on this thrilling journey!

In case you’re interested in watching “Severance” Season 2, it’s being broadcasted weekly. To catch up on the character Milchick, don’t forget to tune in to Apple TV+.
