What to Know

Critics Consensus

Genuinely original science-fiction fare from television veteran Vince Gilligan, Pluribus leads Rhea Seehorn through a brave new world with plentiful returns.

Audience Says

Sometimes falling short of its high-concept promise, Pluribus is a supremely original entry from Vince Gilligan whose trademark cinematography remains employed as part of the ensemble.

3.5/4
Rhea Seehorn’s brilliant tour de force as a lone resistor to hive mentality makes this potent provocation from Vince Gilligan one you don’t want to miss. Go to Full Review
Graeme Blundell The Australian Dec 15
It’s a startling piece of storytelling, beautifully formed and superbly held together by Seehorn. Go to Full Review
Bethan Ackerley New Scientist Feb 8
The most promising thing, beyond Seehorn’s powerhouse performance, is that Pluribus is unapologetically character-driven, the kind of show that devotes half an episode to someone trying to bury a body. Go to Full Review
William Schwartz Book & Film Globe Jan 24
What makes Pluribus compelling as weekly storytelling is that by having such an unpleasant, yet still sympathetic, character at its center, we can see how Carol is her own worst enemy. Go to Full Review

Cristina M @Cris_mica 5h El piloto es estupendo, pero según avanza la temporada se va desinchando, de tal manera que Carol pierde su objetivo y prefiere irse de vacaciones (en el ultimo es literal). Una pena porque la premisa era interesante pero se hace muy lenta y poco original para una serie de estas características llegando a ser anticlimatica en el capítulo que va a Las Vegas y piensas que va a avanzar algo la trama. No seguiré con la siguiente. See more Derry A @derryainsworth 1d Easily the most boring and disappointing tv show I’ve seen in my whole adult life. The original concept is quite interesting but there is no plot development after the first couple of episodes. Each hour long episode just follows this entitled white woman around doing basic daily chores. After each episode I kept thinking I should keep going just Incase the plot suddenly changes and gets interesting. But it doesn’t. The icing on the cake is this entitled American Karen humour that I really didn’t find funny. I hope this show doesn’t get a season two. I hate it. See more A E @ABCDEFGH 2d Only watch if you have nothing else to do. The premise is kinda cool but the concept doesnt progress at all past episode 1 or 2. The finale is so bad that it felt like a filler episode. So much back and forth in the story, so many dragged on long walking scenes and barely any story progression. Youd expect a whole season to begin and end with lots in between, but the ending feels like it couldve been put in episode 4. It got 1.5 stars from me because I may watch the second season if they make one as it appears the main character will hopefully be less important See more Richard G. @TheGoughs79 2d Great show! Can’t wait for the next season See more Camila D @camid 3d dont lose your time watching this tv show. I was hopeful it would turn around at some point, the narrative had everything to be good. Instead, are bunch of slow episodes until the very end — hours just watching a Karen doing absolutely nothing and an entire alien population that took over the world being people pleasing to the "remaining" humans on earth. Makes no sense and it’s boring af See more albu K @albukerkiees 5d Just a Karen being spoiled all the season. The indian woman is the only one who treats her as anybody would have. If you already have to deal with child-adults in your life, don't add another one to the count by watching this. See more Read all reviews
