Apple Moves ‘Pluribus’ Episode 5 Up to Wednesday Ahead of Thanksgiving

The move places the episode before the holiday viewing rush by using Apple’s 9 p.m. ET early unlock to make it available Tuesday night in many time zones.

Overview

  • Apple confirmed the schedule change in a social post, shifting the episode from its usual Friday slot to Wednesday of Thanksgiving week.
  • Because Apple typically unlocks new episodes at 9 p.m. ET the night before the listed date, many viewers will be able to watch on Tuesday evening depending on location.
  • Reports differ on the calendar date due to Apple’s release mechanics, so viewers are advised to check local availability times.
  • The chapter is titled “Got Milk,” and the early drop follows a widely discussed cliffhanger without altering the show’s spoiler‑sensitive details.
  • Apple says the series returns to its normal weekly cadence after this week, which creates a longer wait until the next episode expected on December 5; Apple is also bringing The Last Frontier’s Episode 9 forward by two days.
