What did Dan Erickson say about Severance?
“I’ve a fairly strong thought of the endpoint of the present,” he answered. “I’ve form of a ultimate scene that has at all times been in my head and solutions to among the massive questions. I feel you type of should know these with a view to know the principles of the world that you simply’re writing. But in addition, I feel it’s balanced as a result of I prefer to be stunned by the present too. Typically we’ll meet a brand new character or discover a new location or aspect of the present that I’m stunned to seek out myself in love with and rapidly it’s like, ‘Properly, now that needs to be a part of it. We are able to’t simply depart that there. We’ve to make that part of the larger story.’ And that’s the place numerous the enjoyable is available in. You must suppose in your ft slightly bit and let the present shock you.”
Erickson additional mentioned that he has an “thought” of what number of seasons he’d just like the present to go for, although he didn’t reveal the quantity.
“It’s not like 100% for certain however we’ve talked about it internally and we’re all fairly certain that we’ve got a quantity that we’re pleased with,” he mentioned.

“Season two truly took about the identical period of time as season one,” he mentioned. “The distinction, after all, is season one no person knew what the present was and they also weren’t ready for it. However on the identical time, you’re at all times trying to type of fine-tune the method and take what works and depart what doesn’t work and streamline issues.
