Pluribus

I'm at episode 3 and the premise of this series is pretty interesting and the programmes are certainly well made with good production values, but my problem is that the main character is an utterly vile, horrible excuse for a human, and it's therefore almost impossible to engage with her. I find I'm constantly wondering why someone doesn't just kill her, and wishing that they would.

Quite where the story is going is hard to predict, but at times it feels some scenes are deliberately dragged to make the most of a set, where it would be better to just keep the story moving. Episode 3 is made up almost entirely of these unnecessarily long filler elements and really achieves very little, so why people are giving this a 10 is beyond me.

Unless you've got endless free time to fill, I'd skip this in favour of something better.

Two episodes in, I'm not sure what to think yet. The concept is original and there's definitely something interesting here, but as often happens with Vince Gilligan, it takes a long time to get moving. The slow-burn approach is intentional, yet at times it feels overly drawn out, and I caught myself skipping ahead during a few scenes that just lingered too long.

It looks great, the acting is solid, and the idea has real potential, but I'm struggling to feel fully engaged. I'm more curious than excited, and I still don't really see where the show is heading. It's not bad at all, just a bit too slow, occasionally dull, and not gripping enough from the start.

Hopefully it finds its rhythm.

I enjoyed Pluribus and I think it's definitely a well-made series with solid acting, atmosphere, and an interesting premise. The production quality is high and the story keeps you engaged most of the time.

However, the extremely high rating it currently has - around 9/10 - feels unrealistic to me. While the show is good, it's far from perfect. Some episodes drag, a few character arcs feel underdeveloped, and the pacing isn't always consistent. These flaws make the near-perfect score look more like a hype bubble than an accurate reflection of the show's actual quality.

Overall, I'd say it's a good series worth watching, but the rating creates expectations that the show simply doesn't meet.

A decent show with an interesting premise, but the lead's constant anger gets exhausting fast. Three episodes in, the pacing feels slow and repetitive, which makes her intensity feel even more overwhelming.

Still, the hive-mind concept is intriguing, and despite the flaws, there's enough mystery and potential to keep me curious about where the story might go next.

The premise of the show is great , very intriguing and creates a great sense of expectation of future events.

However, the main character is just horrible, not the actress or her acting, but the character itself is such a horribly annoying person that is impossible to have any connection with her.

I am basically just waiting for her to stop complaining just so I can see what happens with the other guys , but she never stops her incessant self centered winning.

I see people comparing the show with Breaking Bad, but this is like if Marie was like 10 times more annoying and was the main character.

Overall I don't see how this show has a such high rating, doesn't really make sense.
