From executive producer and director Ben Stiller, the acclaimed twisted science fiction thriller "Severance" is back, and after season 1 unravelled the mystery of the severance barrier, there’s consequences in store. Here's how to watch "Severance" season 2 online and from anywhere with a VPN – and potentially for free.

If you haven't heard of "Severance" yet, where have you been? The show is being talked about everywhere, and creative marketing strategies – this week the cast worked in their office in a glass box in the middle of Grand Central Station – have got this weird, wonderful show into the headlines.
The show follows Mark Scout (Adam Scott), the leader of a team at Lumon Industries, a company at which employees undergo a procedure that ‘severs’ their work life from the personal, meaning their outside selves (Outies) have no awareness of the memories of their work selves (Innies), and vice versa. What seems like a great way to achieve a blissful work/life balance turns sinister when the realisation hits that they have no idea who they truly are or indeed what they do between the hours of 9-5.
The first season saw Mark grow increasingly disillusioned with Lumon and attempt to unravel the mystery behind the true nature of the company. And while there were shocking revelations, season 2 promises more woe for Mark and friends as the ramifications of their tampering land far and wide.
With a cast of heavy Hollywood hitters that also includes John Turturro, Patricia Arquette and Christopher Walken, “Severance” is a mind-bending treat that’s not to be missed for twisty mystery fans.

What can we expect from 'Severance' season 2?
The official synopsis from Apple reads: "In "Severance," Mark Scout (Adam Scott) leads a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure, which surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. This daring experiment in “work-life balance” is called into question as Mark finds himself at the centre of an unravelling mystery that will force him to confront the true nature of his work … and of himself. In season two, Mark and his friends learn the dire consequences of trifling with the severance barrier, leading them further down a path of woe."
