"The lead-up to Pluribus has been very secretive. The basic premise - miserable woman is stuck in a world where everyone is happy - was known early on, but that was followed by cryptic trailers that didn't really reveal much else. But now we have a much better idea of what Pluribus is after the first two episodes premiered on Apple TV."
"Before the premiere, Gilligan told me that he loved "the idea of generating conversations, of generating social interactions, people getting together - hopefully in person, social media isn't my favorite thing - but whatever it takes to get people talking." And that's where you come in. Now that we've all had a chance to watch the premiere, I want to have a book club-style discussion about Pluribus for Verge subscribers right here in the comments."
The show's lead-up was highly secretive, with only the premise — a miserable woman stuck in a world where everyone is happy — revealed early on. Cryptic trailers kept the mystery intact without revealing much. The first two episodes premiered on Apple TV and provided a clearer sense of the show's direction. Creator Vince Gilligan expressed a goal of generating conversations and in-person social interactions around the series. A book club–style, spoiler-heavy comments thread invites questions, theories, and predictions from viewers. The host will check in throughout the day and can answer many questions, having seen most of the season while avoiding premature spoils.
