Recommended Entertainment Following Completion of Severance: 8 Television Series and Films
In the world of streaming, there's a wealth of sci-fi content to explore. Here's a roundup of some of the most intriguing series and films currently available or soon to be released.
First up, if you're in the market for a thrilling new series, consider "Coherence," streaming on Peacock and Prime Video, or "Devs," available on Hulu. Both offer unique twists on the genre, with "Coherence" focusing on a dinner party where reality jumbles, and "Devs" unfolding within a mysterious tech company and involving a murder mystery.
For those who appreciate a touch of romance in their sci-fi, "The One I Love," featuring Mark Duplass and Elisabeth Moss, is a free-to-stream-with-ads option on Prime Video. On the other hand, if you're looking for something more offbeat, "The Love Study," starring Jessie Buckley, Jeremy Allen White, Luke Wilson, and Riz Ahmed, is an intriguing new addition to Apple TV+.
Fans of "Severance" might find resonance in German TV series like "Remnick" and "Pluribus," available on Apple TV+ and Hulu respectively. While these shows share some thematic similarities, "Severance" remains uniquely its own, exploring how wildly divergent personalities can evolve from a single person, set within the Love Institute, a company that administers a test for true love.
If you're a fan of tech-centric thrillers, you'll likely find "Black Mirror" and "Severance" share thematic echoes, both offering a chilling portrayal of technology gone awry. In fact, Netflix has announced the star-studded seventh season of "Black Mirror" will drop on April 10.
Meanwhile, "Westworld," which explores a world where robots are so lifelike their AI slips into the realm of the fully sentient, is no longer available for free streaming but can be rented or bought on streaming platforms or purchased on Blu-ray, DVD, or 4K UHD.
Unfortunately, "Made for Love," a delightfully original sci-fi series starring Cristin Milioti and Billy Magnussem, is not currently streaming legally anywhere, having run on HBO Max in 2021-2022 but is no longer available for streaming and has not received a physical media release.
Lastly, for those eagerly awaiting the finale of "Severance" season two, it's set for this week. And if you're looking forward to more, the first season of "Dark Matter," based on Blake Crouch's book, is available for streaming on Apple TV+, with a second season on the way.
