Popular Apple TV+ Series “Severance” Nominated for Producers Guild of America Award

Popular Apple TV+ Series “Severance” Nominated for Producers Guild of America Award

The Producers Guild of America has announced its film and TV nominees for the 2023 Producers Guild Awards. Among the nominees was Apple’s TV+’s “Severance,” which is nominated for the Norman Felton Award for Outstanding Producer of Episodic Television – Drama.

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 center of an unraveling mystery that will force him to confront the true nature of his work… and of himself.

The series also landed two Directors Guild of America (DGA) Award nominations. The celebrated drama has received honors from the Critics Choice Awards, Gotham Awards, AFI, Televisions Critics Association, Art Directors Guild, Cinema Audio Society, Motion Picture Sound Editors Golden Reel Awards and Society of Composers and Lyricists. “Severance” also landed multiple Emmy Award nominations and wins in 2022.
