My wife told me 'Severance' was too slow, but I just finished it in two days
Honestly, she said the first three episodes were a slog, but once it clicked for me around episode 4, I couldn't stop. Anyone else have a show that took a bit to grab you but then you were totally hooked?

Tbh I felt the same way about The Bear. Took a few episodes to get into the rhythm but then I binged the whole thing.

Yeah, that "get into the rhythm" thing is key, @noah248. The show throws you right into the kitchen chaos on purpose, so it's jarring at first. Once you sync up with that pace, you're just hooked for the whole ride.

Episode 4 of Severance is where it really opened up for me too, @noah248 - that scene with the wellness session completely flipped how I saw the whole show. I had the same thing happen with Dark, where I almost quit after two episodes but then the time travel stuff clicked and I binged the rest in a weekend. Sometimes you just gotta trust that a show is setting something up, even if the first few hours feel like a slow burn.
