Fans have been waiting nearly three years, and season two of the psychological thriller Severance is finally around the corner. At Lumon Industries, employees voluntarily undergo a controversial “severance” procedure that splits their consciousness into two distinct identities: “innies,” who exist only at work and have no memory of their outside life or their past, and “outies,” who live outside in the real world with no memory of their jobs.

At the end of last season, Dylan (Zach Cherry) stays behind at Lumon to help the rest of the team at Macrodata Refinement by activating the Overtime Contingency Protocol, waking their innies in the real world. Each makes game changing discoveries.

During a visit with his sister, Mark (Adam Scott)’s innie begins piecing together the life of his outie, who had been grieving the death of his wife Gemma (Dichen Lachman). When he discovers a photograph of her, he realizes that she is actually Ms. Casey, the wellness counselor at Lumon who is very much alive.

Helly (Britt Lower)’s outie is revealed to be Helena Eagan, a member of the powerful Eagan family that runs Lumon. Her outie, who voluntarily underwent the severance procedure, is about to make a speech at a Lumon gala promoting it, but Helly instead uses it to try to expose the company’s unethical practices.

Irving (John Turturro) discovers that his outie has been obsessively investigating Lumon and finds a room full of disturbing paintings of the black hallway of the mysterious testing floor. Finding a map of Lumon employees, Irving sets out to find the home of his innie love interest, Burt (Christopher Walken), only to discover his outie is living happily with another man.

On Call is a procedural drama set in Long Beach, California, following veteran officer Traci Harmon (Troian Bellisario) and rookie Alex Diaz (Brandon Larracuente) as they navigate the challenges of modern policing. The series also stars Eriq La Salle as the tough and principled Sergeant Lasman, who has a complicated history with Harmon and is often clashing with her over career decisions. Lori Loughlin also stars as Lieutenant Bishop, a stern and authoritative figure who prioritizes justice but makes controversial choices that strain relationships within the department.

The cast did ride alongs with real police officers to prep for the roles. “That was sort of the foundation,” La Salle Told SciFi Vision during a recent interview with the press, adding that it was “extremely helpful.”

It was helpful to Loughlin as well. “One of my takeaways was we're all just humans, and I think that's one of the main things that we try to hit on in this show is that we're all just human beings doing the best that we can do,” explained the actress to the site, adding that the officers foremost want to “protect and serve.” She also noticed their relationships with the people in the community. “I was really surprised and touched to see that there's a genuine relationship between the cops and the community,” said Loughlin.

Netflix’s American Primeval is a gritty Western that delves into the harsh realities of frontier life in 1857 Utah, where cultural and religious tensions erupt into violence. Abish Pratt (Saura Lightfoot-Leon) is a young newly married Mormon woman who’s life is upended when she is taken captive when her settlement is attacked by Red Feather (Derek Hinkey), a warrior leading his clan against colonizers. While Abish struggles to survive as a captive, she learns about his tribe and their fight for survival. Meanwhile, Red Feather is torn between his duty as a leader and the moral weight of his actions.

Recently, Hinkey and Lightfoot-Leon spoke with SciFi Vision about working on the series, including connecting with their characters, working with costumes, and more.

Set against the backdrop of Long Beach, California, On Call chronicles the partnership between seasoned officer Traci Harmon (Troian Bellisario) and impulsive rookie Alex Diaz (Brandon Larracuente). Still mourning a trainee’s tragic death, Traci enforces rigid protocols to protect Alex. Hower, his rebellious nature challenges her authority and forces both to confront their vulnerabilities. Shot using a mixture of hand-held cameras, bodycam, and dash-cam footage, the series offers an intimate look at their evolving partnership while addressing the emotional toll and ethical dilemmas inherent in modern policing.

The partnership between Traci and Alex is the heart of the series. “The entirety of the show really is about this relationship and as a small microcosm of something much larger,” explained Bellisario to SciFi Vision during a recent interview with the press. “I think what's really incredible about the opportunity that we give our audience is you really get to come in to the patrol car with us. You get to spend all of this time with us going from call to call to call, really not getting any breaks. You never see us at home. It's not about our personal lives; it’s about our lives out in the community doing this job.”

The actress added that the relationship grew organically. “Getting to go to work each day with in incredible scene partner, I think the relationship really had an organic build to it. The more Harmon and Diaz got to know each other and trust each other, so too did myself and Brandon.”
