Apple TV+ is advertising Vince Gilligan’s new show as a “science fiction drama,” but it may as well be about the origins of our present moment. In Pluribus, “the most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness,” per its logline. Well, it looks like they’re succeeding!

What is known: Pluribus comes from Sony PIctures TV, Gilligan's long-time studio home and the producer of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Apple TV+ won a bidding war for the series in 2022 with a two-season order. Gilligan has said he wrote the show for Seehorn, who in turn has described it as "a wild ride."
