Comment on Severance’s Skin-Deep Critique of Capitalism
FooBarrington@lemmy.world 1 day agoI’d understand this criticism if Irving had been missing for a whole season, but he hasn’t been missing so far.
You don’t know that they don’t have a plan. It’s a fine criticism if it happens, but you don’t know if it will happen.

He solved a puzzle the writers gave him and concluded his purpose and then Burt’s character was made to be different and then ignored the new character description anyways to conveniently send the character away.
Its already been contrived enough to point it out as such and will be legitimate as an overarching issue if it continues yes.
Rest of the season was pretty great but you can feel easy answer writing, so I am calling out the early symptoms of it. It’s as legitimate as my opinion as far as you are willing to listen to it.

No, Burt didn’t ignore his new character description, it was a logical continuation of it.
There were several times during this season when it looked like the writers would take easy outs, yet at every turn they didn’t. I feel it’s only fair to give them the benefit of the doubt and see what they have to offer. You’re literally criticizing them for mistakes they haven’t yet made.
