Apple TV+'s Pluribus Debuts to Raves as Vince Gilligan Preps Season 2 and Hints at More

Early episodes drew a reported perfect critics' score, signaling a strong start to a nine‑part weekly rollout.

Overview

  • Created by Vince Gilligan and starring Rhea Seehorn, the series launched November 7 with a two‑episode premiere on Apple TV+.
  • Season 1 runs nine episodes with new installments each Friday through December 26, according to the announced release schedule.
  • Critics have given the show a reported 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes, with early audience reactions also trending positive.
  • Gilligan says a Season 2 writers’ room is opening and indicates the story could extend beyond the show’s initial two‑season order.
  • The production prominently states "This show was made by humans," aligning with Gilligan’s public criticism of AI, and a cameo‑filled promo featuring Breaking Bad alumni has been framed as marketing rather than narrative crossover.
