Now, the first trailer for &#8220;Pluribus&#8221; is finally here, and we still have little clue what the hell this show is meant to be about. Still, we do have one idea: There seems to be some &#8220;Severance&#8221; style premise, meaning many mysteries and cool vibes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The teaser shows Seehorn as Carol Sturka, a woman having a bit of a weird time. She goes around her day in a world that feels eerily calm and organized, like a Lumon Industries office building, talking with someone from the government that&#8217;s speaking to her from the White House, inviting her to join&#8230; something. &#8220;We&#8217;re here for you,&#8221; the spokesperson says, and the teaser ends with Seehorn&#8217;s character saying what we all think \u2014 &#8220;What the f&#8211;?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read more: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/1727516\/best-hbo-shows-all-time-ranked\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The 20 Best HBO Shows Of All Time, Ranked;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The 20 Best HBO Shows Of All Time, Ranked<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Apple TV+ may have another intriguing genre series<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>A woman offers a bottle of water in Pluribus &#8211; Apple TV+<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The official synopsis or &#8220;Pluribus&#8221; gives us some clues as to what the show will be about. Rhea Seehorn plays Carol Sturka, the most miserable woman in the world, the only person seemingly immune to a virus that&#8217;s turned everyone optimistic, mellow, and happy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The show feels like a no-brainer for AppleTV, which has cemented itself as the home of <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/1789245\/best-sci-fi-shows-apple-tv-plus-ranked\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:the best genre shows on TV, especially sci-fi;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">the best genre shows on TV, especially sci-fi<\/a>. From epics like &#8220;Foundation&#8221; that take place in vast alien worlds, or smaller scale genre dramas like &#8220;Severance&#8221; and &#8220;The Big Door Prize,&#8221; which treat its genre elements like a mystery box, slowly unraveling the secrets of their worlds and what makes them different.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">How exactly does a virus turn everyone nice and happy? Why is Carol immune? What is this world&#8217;s equivalent of Lumon? Vince Gilligan seems to be returning to his &#8220;X-Files&#8221; roots while still working in his character-driven dramatic skills from &#8220;Breaking Bad&#8221; and &#8220;Better Call Saul&#8221; in. If those two shows are anything to go by, we&#8217;re in for a highly emotional ride, even though the teaser mostly sells just a trippy and weird story.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The first two episodes of &#8220;Pluribus&#8221; premiere on AppleTV on November 7, 2025, followed by new episodes every Friday through December 26, 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If you&#8217;re looking for the easiest way to keep up with all the major movie and TV news, why not <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.slashfilm.com\/newsletter-syndicated\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:sign up to our free newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">sign up to our free newsletter<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/1991869\/breaking-bad-creator-apple-tv-series-trailer-pluribus-severance-sci-fi-premise\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:original article on SlashFilm;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">original article on SlashFilm<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vince Gilligan is back, baby!
