What a great and unexpected show this is, it's like a 2001 A Space Odyssey. this one has more humans though. I wonder if everything will be reveal in season 2. maybe not. hope it goes awhile more.
I had seen clips online here and there, and I love Ben Stiller and Adam Scott, but I hate streaming! So I finally went for this when it was on special. Oh my. I had definitely been missing out! Now I just have to hope they release season 2 eventually on DVD!

A+ Packaging. Case comes with a nice slip cover, and the inner case holds the discs neatly in a way that won't damage them over time. (ie cardboard sleeves)
When I went to put the disc in I found myself hoping "please be a bland training video menu". A+ again.
The only thing I want is more Severance. Sad face for no behind the scenes, was hoping to see some sets but I guess breaking the illusion, for now, might be a good move.
Let's address the elephant in the room: Season 1 of "Severance" is quite possibly some of the best television ever made. It's quirky, it's funny, it's horrifyingly serious, it's wildly entertaining, and it's thoroughly engrossing. So much obvious love and care was put into the writing, designing, acting, directing, filming, and editing of this show that it comes as a huge disappointment that the same level of care wasn't put into its much-deserved physical release. Let's be honest: streaming services have been trying to kill physical media for a long time, and they've been so successful at whittling down the consumer base that only cinephiles and collectors are still regularly buying physical releases of tv shows. With that being the case, why haven't we gotten a 4K UHD release? A standard blu-ray is certainly better than nothing, but cinephiles and collectors are willing to pay for top-of-the-line video and audio quality. Apple is leaving money on the table by not releasing a collector's edition of this incredible season on 4K, complete with behind-the-scenes featurettes and commentary tracks.
