Anyone else watching Pluribus?
I went into it knowing literally nothing about it, not even that it was science fiction. The moment I heard "Vince Gilligan penned show staring Rhea Seahorn" I knew I was going to watch it and then avoided any other information about it.
You have to hand it to the guy. After writing two of the most popular shows of the century he pitches: "How about we do a show about the Ned Flanders version of the Borg, as an unveiled analogy for the way AI is taking over our lives?"
I don't know if the premise has long term sustainability, there's inherently only 12 other possible characters and five of them already hate her. I just don't know how much compelling character development they can squeeze out of one woman talking to a global alien hive mind. But the first couple episodes are sure entertaining.
