Severance season 2 is finally back after three years, and it was well worth the wait. The Apple TV+ workplace drama—which explores an alternate reality where one can physically separate their personal life from their work life—successfully builds upon the first season while recapturing the thrilling twists of its memorable season 1 finale.

Taking the idea of work-life balance to extremes, the sardonic and surrealist thriller “Severance” on Apple TV+ envisions a dystopian corporate world in which employees of a company called Lumon Industries have a chip implanted in their brains that severs their memory in two.

Here's what you should remember from the first season of "Severance" and how certain moments and symbols could foreshadow what happens in Season 2.

Fortunately, “Severance” returns to Apple TV+ on Friday, and its makers seem to have used every second of the absence productively. The season takes new turns while remaining the most ambitious, batty and all-out pleasurable show on TV, an M.C. Escher maze whose plot convolutions never get in the way of its voice, heart and sense of humor.

After almost three years, the wait for "Severance" Season 2 is finally over. Here’s when the anticipated second season will premiere on AppleTV+ and how to watch it.

Ahead of the season two premiere of hit TV show Severance, Apple is marketing the show with a fun Severance pop-up at the Grand Central Terminal
