I'm obsessed with these fan-made Severance title sequences that parody The Office, Parks and Recreation, and Succession

I can't scroll through social media without stumbling across Severance season 2 fan theories, memes, art, and other creative endeavors, which is one of the reasons I'm so obsessed with the show. in recent times, I found some fan-made Severance trailers that pay homage to three more of my favorite comedy reveals: The Office, Succession, and Parks and Recreation. I'm sure Adam Scott, who plays Mark Scout in Severance and Ben Wyatt in Parks and Rec, will be thrilled about the latter!

It's so great to see one of the best Apple TV+ reveals getting so much love, even if I am jealous of the people who didn't have to wait three years between seasons. If you're new to the Severance fandom, it's advanced late than never, and we get to see gems like this. I absolutely love Severance season 2's new title sequence, but these are very creative indeed, not to mention funny.

So, without further waffle (do you see what I did there?), here are the aforementioned fan-made trailers. Spoilers follow for Severance seasons 1 and 2, so proceed with caution if you haven't watched the popular Apple TV+ series yet.

#SEVERANCE | the office intro [website] 24, 2025.

If Michael Scott could see this intro, I'm sure he would give it one of his coveted Dundies. Maybe Lumon should have its own award ceremony, too: The Lumies? That one needs work, I think.

Anyway, it's very cool to see one of my favorite comedy displays of all time, The Office, coming together with Severance. This brings a very different vibe to the mysterious Lumon halls. I would quite like to see a Kier-based sitcom. Can someone greenlight that?

Severance Intro (Parks & Recreation Style) - YouTube Watch On.

As mentioned, Adam Scott is well-known for playing Ben Wyatt in Parks and Recreation, so it's cool to see two of his most famous demonstrates come together in a fan-made tease that the talented Inherent Mediocre has dubbed Severance and Recreation. This playful take on Severance aspects all of the main cast and uses the grid imagery that Parks and Recreation made so iconic.

Perhaps some of the Pawnee workers would quite like the idea of being severed, as not all of them are quite as enthusiastic about their jobs as Leslie Knope. I would love to see what all their innies are like.

Severance Intro Succession Style - YouTube Watch On.

The drama of this one! Succession's intro has always been brilliant and it's one I never skipped because I just had to hear that great Nicholas Britell score every single time. Considering it's a show about corruption and power dynamics, there are parallels with Severance there for sure.

This is another Inherent Mediocre gem and, honestly, I'm excited to see where they go next because every creation of theirs is brilliant.

Smash hit Balatro lands on Xbox Game Pass with new update

Balatro is a fantastic mix of deck-building, roguelike runs, and cheating at poker. But you don’t have to take my word for it. This indie darling was such a smash hit last year that it sold millions of copies on PC and console before quickly expanding to Android and iOS. If you haven’t picked it up yet, you can do it for free or cheap — it’s now included in the Xbox Game Pass subscription service.

Game Pass isn’t perfect, but it remains the best deal in gaming if you don’t need access to . At $12 a month for the PC-only version, or $20 a month for access across all devices with streaming included, it’s a great way to access tons of titles. I like to dip in for just one month if a new, full-priced game interests me and I’m not ready to shell out $70. (I imagine a lot of people are doing that right now for Obsidian’s Avowed RPG, same as Starfield.).

But seriously, buy Balatro. It’s $15 on Steam, $10 on your phone or tablet, and I think the latter’s touchscreen might even be the superior way to play it. The game was basically complete last year, but a few content updates have added free cosmetic extras that tie into other popular games. The “Friends of Jimbo 4” improvement adds card art from games like Assassin’s Creed, Bugsnax, Dead by Daylight, Fallout, Rust, and Civilization.

Here’s my final plea to convince you to play Balatro: I installed it on my grandma’s iPad over Christmas. This is an octogenarian woman who has not played a mainstream game since Angry Birds. Two weeks ago she called me up to tell me she finally broke 20,000 points. C’mon, that’s freakin’ adorable.

What is Firefly: everything you need to know about Adobe’s safe AI image generator

Firefly is a set of generative AI tools developed by Adobe. Built into Creative Cloud, Firefly’s elements are designed to supercharge your workflow, whether you’re generating images, editing photos or designing graphics.

What sets Firefly apart from many of the best AI image generators is that it was trained on licensed Adobe stock and public domain images, which means it should be safer to user commercially.

New Firefly elements are being added to Creative Cloud all the time. Read on to find out how Firefly can improve your creative process.

This article was correct as of February 2025. AI tools are updated regularly and it is possible that some elements have changed since this article was written. Some elements may also only be available in certain countries.

Firefly is a set of creative tools built on four generative AI models: Image, Vector, Design and Video (which is still in beta). Developed by Adobe, Firefly uses AI to give designers and digital artists more creative flexibility. Some of its elements are available as standalone tools, such as Firefly’s web-based text-to-image generator. Others are built directly into Creative Cloud apps, such as Generative Fill in Photoshop.

Launched in March 2023, Adobe Firefly is improving all the time, with new tools regularly added to Creative Cloud apps. The latest upgrade included the beta rollout of its Video model, which powers Generative Expand in Premiere Pro, as well as photographic image adjustments in the Firefly web app.

Firefly is regarded as one of the most ethical AI image generators. This is because its models were trained exclusively on public domain images and licensed Adobe Stock. This makes it a popular choice for commercial and professional customers, as it’s less likely to result in copyright issues with generated content.

Adobe Firefly’s full capabilities are too numerous to list here, but they can be broken down into two categories. First, you have the standalone Firefly web interface. A fully featured AI image generator, it can be used to create high-quality images from natural language prompts in a range of visual styles.

It offers powerful options not found on other platforms: you can choose between art and photo content types, provide reference images for style and composition, apply lighting, colour and camera angle effects, as well as refining specific details in the prompt itself.

Then there are the various Firefly tools built into other Creative Cloud apps. You’ve got the powerful Generative Fill and Generative Expand tools in Photoshop, which leverage AI to edit the contents of existing photos and expand their margins. You can also use generative text effects to stylize typography in Adobe Express, while Text to Vector Graphic allows you to easily generate vectors in Illustrator. The new Generative Expand feature in Premiere Pro can even add seconds on to video clips.

Firefly is designed to complement the creative process, rather than replace it entirely. As capable as it is, the output of its various tools often needs further refinement or integration into a project before it’s ready to go. Its output also fares more effective with some subjects than others, and the text-to-image tool will quite often generate unrealistic or surreal results.

The model’s ethics also limit what it can be used to generate. Firefly is built to avoid copyright infringement. Because it’s trained on Adobe Stock and public domain images, there are restrictions on the source material. It won’t generate branded imagery or likenesses of real people, for example. It will also steer clear of offensive or harmful imagery.

Adobe Firefly is available for free via the web interface. The free plan includes 25 generative credits per month and doesn’t require a Creative Cloud subscription. For more comprehensive access, you can take out one of Adobe’s paid Firefly plans.

Firefly Standard costs ($[website] / £[website] / AU$[website] per month) and includes unlimited access to image and vector aspects. You get 2,000 generative credits per month, which can be used to create five-second videos and translate audio. Firefly Pro ($[website] / £[website] / AU$[website] per month) ups these limits, with 7,000 generative credits.

You can also access Firefly’s attributes by taking out a Creative Cloud Single App ($[website] / £[website] / AU$[website] per month) or All Apps ($[website] / £[website] / AU$[website] per month) subscription. The former includes anywhere from 100 to 500 generative credits, depending on the app, while the latter gives you 1,000 to play with. For reference, one image generation usually uses one credit.

Adobe Firefly’s text-to-image elements can be accessed via the web platform at [website] Several of its generative tools, including text effects, can also be used online through Adobe Express.

Other Firefly-powered capabilities are only available through the relevant app. Generative Fill and Generative Expand, for example, require you to use Adobe Photoshop.

Firefly’s effectiveness depends on what you’re using it for. In our review of Adobe Photoshop, for example, we praised the effectiveness of the Generative Fill tool. Powered by Firefly Image Model 3, we found it capable of generating realistic imagery with deeper control of detail and composition. We also encountered few uncanny results. It’s not perfect, though, producing surreal outcomes more than occasionally.

As a text-to-image generator, the web-based version of Firefly has one of the most comprehensive feature sets. In our hands-on experience, however, it doesn’t always pay exact attention to the details of your prompt. Complex prompts can confuse it, too. From our time using it, Firefly’s generative tool is advanced employed for design and graphics work than photorealism.

Granular control of its web interface makes Firefly one of the most powerful AI image generators, with the ability to control camera angles, visual styles and more, as well as providing reference images for composition.

You want to stay on the right side of the law.

Trained exclusively on licensed stock and public domain images, Adobe Firefly’s generative content is less likely to fall foul of copyright laws. This means you’re safer to use its output as part of commercial projects.

With attributes into several of Adobe apps, including Photoshop, Firefly complements existing tools with the power of generative AI. If you don’t use these programs, you won’t get the best out of it.

Firefly is a powerful text-to-image generator, but it’s best used for graphic and illustrative work. Complex photo prompts can often come out warped, with more believable results generated by models like Imagen 3.

Luminar Neo is an intuitive, subscription-free photo editor with built-in AI tools. Simpler to use than Photoshop or Lightroom, it allows amateur photographers to save time when editing their images, with powerful removal tools. It doesn’t come close to the power and versatility offered by Adobe Firefly, though.

Leonardo is an AI image generator with pro-friendly aspects, including real-time editing and granular settings control. It has a range of generative tools, including one that lets you create AI images from sketches. It doesn’t have the cross-app depth of Firefly, but it’s a powerful creative option.
