“2 years and 11 months then, I see” – Fans troll as Ben Stiller assures ‘Severance’ Season 3 won’t take another three years

Severance drama does not seem to be leaving the center stage anytime soon. As fans of this mind-bending series wait patiently, the sweet sound of the show's director telling that the upcoming season would not take forever to be made, soothes their hearts and teases out rib-tickling humor in social media.

Ben Stiller has recently commented on it and it all started when he mentioned that the third season of the show would not take another three years to be made. Let us be honest, few feelings in life are as prized as the hint of favorite show's production waiting just round the corner.

A netizen comically expressed his disbelief and commented, (@seanjetravers/X)

“2 years and 11 months then, I see"

The show came out in 2022 in Apple Tv+ and we are in 2025 already. Naturally fans are counting days to see another chapter of mind-bending story telling genius.

But if history was any evidence, we know that shows getting delayed is as common as a broken crayon in a toddler's house. So, fans naturally refused to gulp in the sweet news head straight, rather they reacted with skeptic eye rolls and sarcasm that may cut you if you're not careful.

Ben Stiller's assurance about Severance season 3 was much needed to the weary souls waiting out there, but did we really not get reminded of that friend who swears he'll make a dinner plan soon just to ghost it afterwards?

As season 3 is on the way and fans wait with momentary cyclical 'sighs', the reactions pop up from everywhere. Some fans pointed to the phrasing Stiller used for Severance season 3's production-prediction. Two words, "definitely not'' rang a solid ring of disbelief in the hearts of drama thristy fans.

With this much anticipation and wait for Severance, even Nirvana could have come nearer. But let us have a little laughter while we sit tight at the bus station waiting obediently for our 'Severance Season 3' train to arrive.
