Apple Shares Trailer for Mysterious Show From 'Breaking Bad' Creator

[MacRumors]

Apple today shared the first full trailer for Pluribus, an upcoming sci-fi drama series hailing from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan.

Pluribus stars Emmy-nominated actress Rhea Seehorn, who also starred in the Breaking Bad spinoff series Better Call Saul. In the "genre-bending" series, Apple says "the most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness."

Seehorn plays a woman named Carol, who is "different" from others.

In case you missed it, Apple TV+ is being rebranded as Apple TV. The first two episodes of the first season will be released on the streaming service on Friday, November 7, and a new episode will follow every Friday through December 26.

Apple has already picked up the series for a second season.

Pluribus is produced by Sony Pictures Television, and Gilligan serves as one of the executive producers and as a writer for some episodes.

Over the past few months, Apple has shared several mysterious clips from the show.

If you dial 202-808-3981, an automated message related to the show will play, and there is an option to sign up for promotional Apple TV+ text messages.

Glad to see Apple using the correct logo for apple tv.. oh wait… +?

 

[Apple-achian]

I smell another 4 Emmys for Apple TV.

 

[Courteous Carcass]

I mean, I would have noted that Vince Gilligan was also a writer and executive producer of The X-Files, so his sci-fi creds are already pretty good.

Breaking Bad is a great show, absolutely. But it seems worth noting his work on both shows here.

 

[StoneyG]

Gilligan is credited as a writer for some episodes, but he is the showrunner (and runs the writers' room). Each story beat for each episode is worked out collectively by all of the writers. After that there's a rotation of individual writers pen the script for each episode. That was the process for Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, and I imagine the same formula applies to this show as well.

Anyhow, very much looking forward to this one!

After The X-Files, Breaking Bad, and Better Call Saul, I’ll watch anything with Vince Gilligan’s name attached to it.

 

[awshucks]

Yay, more immoral mindrot to watch!

 

[Plerf]

Seehorn gives very good miserable face.

 

[Darajavahus]

The first halve of the trailer gave me the vibe of a person with depression that can't comprehend how the f not everyone is clinically depressed. That's my projection coz that's how I feel. I would like if it was like that.

 

[Taq'aix]

These short clips don’t really showcase enough to hook me. Would love to see a longer trailer or something with more substance.

 

[satchmo]

Seehorn gives very good miserable face.

She and Odenkirk deserved at least one Emmy for Better Call Saul.

Resting Bitch Face: the series

(unironically, this sounds great and I’ll definitely watch it)

Breaking Bad is a great show, absolutely. But it seems worth noting his work on both shows here.

None of his X Files episodes were directly sci-fi though.

 

[63W]

Well, now I want a tank.

 

[dantay]

Slow Horses and Severance are great……this looks like a winner too.

 

[JonYo]

I have no idea where they're going to go with this premise, which is exactly why I'll definitely be watching this.

 

[Residentsteve]

Is this a comedy 😂 I honestly don’t get it 🤷🏼‍♂️ same with breaking bad I watched 3 episodes and gave up I couldn’t get into it.

 

[Residentsteve]

Slow Horses and Severance are great……this looks like a winner too.

Slow horses is great severance I couldn’t get into at all.

 

[svish]

Interesting trailer. Might be a good show. Will definitely watch at least the 1st episode.

 

[Killa78]

Yay, more immoral mindrot to watch!

You do realise that watching is optional right?

 

[ducknalddon]

Slow horses is great severance I couldn’t get into at all.

I loved severance but my wife couldn't stand it.

I think it's because lumon feels like a corporation I worked for in the eighties. So much of what I watched in Severance had echos of my former job.

 

[Bodhitree]

I quite like the idea of one miserable person in a world full of happiness… looks good, next time I have an Apple TV subscription I’ll watch an episode or two.

 

[Ruggy]

I thought Rhea Seehorn was excellent in Better Call Saul and it seems the role was written specifically for her.
I'll definitely give this one a good look.
