From the mind of Vince Gilligan (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul) comes the most original sci-fi premiere in years. In Episodes 1 & 2 of Pluribus (“We Is Us” and “Pirate Lady”), a rogue radio signal from deep space triggers a global transformation — and only one person is left unconnected: speculative romance author Carol Sturka, played by a powerhouse Rhea Seehorn.Brandon & Chanel dive into everything you missed:The alien RNA signal that infects the world via… saliva and donutsRhea Seehorn’s brilliant performance as the reluctant resistanceThe arrival of Pirate Lady, a real-life version of Carol’s book characterHelen’s tragic death and what it means to “join” the hivemindSeizures triggered by Carol’s emotions (that may have killed 11 million people 😬)The mysterious 12 “immunes” — are they humanity’s last hope or just passengers?Mind-melding, wine country, Air Force One cameos, and a very weird backhoe momentGilligan’s mix of psychological dread, sci-fi absurdism, and razor-sharp comedy makes Pluribus feel like a collision of Arrival, Watchmen, and Better Call Saul. This is the kind of show you binge, rewatch, and obsess over — and Brandon & Chanel are breaking it all down.🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe → https://www.youtube.com/@WeWasWatchin...#Pluribus #RheaSeehorn #VinceGilligan #AppleTV #WeIsUs #PirateLady #Hivemind #SciFiThriller #WeWasWatching #TVRecap #BreakingBadFans #BetterCallSaul #CarolSturka #MindControlSciFi
