If you remember your history lessons, the word Pluribus is part of “E Pluribus Unum,” meaning the whole out of many, one. Vince Gilligan‘s highly anticipated drama, Pluribus, is set to challenge our perceptions about happiness and communal well-being.

This genre-bending drama features Rhea Seehorn, Carolina Wydra, and will also star Miriam Shor as a guest in the show. As per Variety, the nine-episode drama will conclude its first season on December 26, and it has already been renewed for Season 2.

But what does Pluribus even mean? Giving a completely different energy, Gilligan is taking the utterly confusing concept and flipping it on its head, turning the drama into something low-key terrifying. Let’s delve deep into what the visionary’s perception is about this Apple TV+ show and what it has in store for the audience.

Vince Gilligan is all set to present Pluribus, a sci-fi thriller show. He is the creator of shows like Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. He has made a complete shift in genre with this new series set to premiere on Apple TV+ on November 7, 2025. It is a nine-episode run and has already been greenlit for a second season.

The show stars Rhea Seehorn in a genre-defying blend of dark satire, sci-fi, and emotional drama. In a bizarre turn of events, the protagonist is the “most miserable person alive” and is the last hope for humanity against an emotional pandemic. With the teaser just out, there are several unsettling fan theories, with the excitement for the show skyrocketing.

Apple TV+ ha desvelado el primer vistazo de Pluribus, la esperada nueva serie de Vince Gilligan, creador de Breaking Bad y Better Call Saul, y también ha anunciado su fecha de estreno.

«La felicidad es contagiosa», anunciaba Apple TV+ junto a un primer póster y una cuenta atrás en YouTube para el estreno del teaser. Saben bien lo que implica que Vince Gilligan, uno de los creadores más influyentes de la televisión reciente, vuelva con una nueva serie.

En Pluribus, la persona más miserable de la Tierra debe salvar al mundo de la felicidad. Así de desconcertante es la premisa. El teaser, un críptico vídeo de 30 segundos, muestra a una mujer vestida de rosa que lame donuts uno a uno antes de volver a colocarlos en una caja. Después, enfocan a un cartel que dice «sírvase usted mismo» y una cara sonriente.

Apple is adding a new sci-fi show called Pluribus to its growing lineup, created by Vince Gilligan, the mind behind Breaking Bad. The company finally shared a short teaser and announced that the show will premiere on Apple TV Plus on November 7th.

The show stars Rhea Seehorn, who is familiar to fans as Kim Wexler from Better Call Saul, another Gilligan hit. Not much is known about the story yet, but Apple describes it as a show about “the most miserable person on Earth” who “must save the world from happiness.” The cast also includes Karolina Wydra, Carlos Manuel Vesga, Miriam Shor, and Samba Schutte.

Apple describes the show as focusing on “the most miserable person on Earth” who has a strange mission: “to save the world from happiness.” Alongside Seehorn, the cast includes Karolina Wydra, Carlos Manuel Vesga, Miriam Shor, and Samba Schutte.

Vince Gilligan, the brilliant screenwriter and showrunner for cult classics like Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, is back with his first major release after these hit series. It is called Pluribus, and it is ready to hit Apple TV+ on November 7, 2025. The first two episodes of the show will be released together, while the others will follow weekly.

This genre-bending sci-fi show features Emmy-nominated actress Rhea Seehorn as the “most miserable person on earth,” and she must ironically save the world from happiness. Confused? We are, too! Let’s find out more about the premise.

Happiness Is a Threat in Vince Gilligan’s Pluribus

Pluribus is set in an alternate reality of America, introducing us to a world where happiness has become dangerous. Seehorn will be seen playing a forever-miserable woman, who holds the key to saving the planet from this bizarre emotional pandemic.

"Help yourself! :)" Apple TV has finally revealed a first look at the new series from the creator of Breaking Bad, writer Vince Gilligan, which is ready to debut at the end of 2025 (starting in November). His new sci-fi drama series is titled Pluribus - the Latin word is an adjective that means "much, many" (used in the U.S. slogan "E pluribus unum"). There's still not much really known about what the show is about or what will be happening, but we finally have a one-line intro: The most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness. Pluribus stars Rhea Seehorn (who was in Gilligan's "Better Call Saul") along with Carlos Manuel Vesga, Karolina Wydra, Miriam Shor, and Samba Schutte. This sounds like it will be closer to something like Apple TV's hit show Severance rather than their other series Foundation (one of my faves) in...

We have seen our first look at the intriguing next project from Breaking Badcreator Vince Gilligan, a philosophical sci-fi series now confirmed to be titled Pluribus. The Apple TV+ show also stars Rhea Seehorn of Better Call Saul, the equally famous Breaking Bad prequel series Gilligan co-created with Peter Gould.

Two days ago, the team behind the Breaking Bad creator and Better Call Saul star's new show shared a cryptic social media post along with the caption "Happiness is contagious." Now, we have received just a bit more information with the confirmation of the show's title, release date, and the reveal of its first teaser trailer.

According to Apple TV+, Pluribus is about "the most miserable person on Earth [who] must save the world from happiness." Pluribus' first season will consist of nine episodes, the first two of which will premiere on Apple TV+ on Nov. 7, 2025, with the season wrapping up on Dec.

Three years ago, it was announced that Sony Pictures TV had given a two-season order for a new series from Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan – a series that was described as a “blended, grounded genre drama” that’s something along the lines of the classic Rod Serling show The Twilight Zone. Gilligan’s Better Call Saul cast member Rhea Seehorn followed him over to the new show and signed on to play the lead role… and now, finally, we know when we’re going to have the chance to see it. The show, which is called Pluribus, is set to premiere on Apple TV+ on Friday, November 7. The remaining seven episodes will air every Friday through December 26. Deadline also shared a short teaser, which can be seen in the embed above.

Today, Apple TV+ shared a glimpse at Pluribus, the upcoming sci-fi drama hailing from Vince Gilligan, the writer and director of Breaking Bad and co-creator of Better Call Saul. Pluribus stars Rhea Seehorn, who earned two Emmy nominations for her performance on Better Call Saul.

The nine-episode drama series will make its global debut on Apple TV+ with its first two episodes on Friday, November 7, 2025, followed by new episodes every Friday through December 26.

Already picked up for a second season, Pluribus is a genre-bending original in which the most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness. In addition to Seehorn, the series stars Karolina Wydra (Sneaky Pete) and Carlos Manuel Vesga (The Hijacking of Flight 601), and guest stars Miriam Shor (American Fiction) and Samba Schutte (Our Flag Means Death).

Pluribus is produced by Sony Pictures Television and executive produced by Emmy Award winner Gilligan alongside WGA Award winner Gordon Smith,...

Nearly three years after it was first announced, and following a few vague teasers from the principals over that time, some concrete details about the Apple TV+ series created by Vince Gilligan and starring Rhea Seehorn are finally available.

Well, a couple, at least.

For starters, the series — marking a reunion between the Better Call Saul co-creator and star — has a title, Pluribus (the “many” part of the unofficial U.S. motto “E pluribus unum,” or “From many, one”) and a premiere date, Nov. 7. Apple TV+ also released the first photo of Seehorn from the series, which is at the top of this story.

As for what Pluribus is about? That’s murkier. The show’s logline describes it as “a genre-bending original in which the most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness.” Cryptic social media posts from Apple earlier in the week read, “Happiness is contagious,...

When Vince Gilligan creates a show, it’s kind of a big deal. You see, the last couple of times he did that, we got Breaking Bad, followed by Better Call Saul – one of the undisputed all-time-great shows, and a spin-off-quel that some might claim was even better. Well, good news for anyone with eyes and a TV: Gilligan is back with a brand new show, coming to Apple TV+, and the first details have just been confirmed at this year’s San Diego Comic Con.

Let’s get the big stuff out of the way first: it’s called Pluribus, and it features Saul’s Rhea Seehorn in its leading role – that’s her in the first official image, which you can see above. Ostensibly, the show is a sci-fi series, though the official synopsis describes it as “a genre-bending original in which the most miserable person on Earth...

Vince Gilligan, the mastermind behind Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, is back on TV after a three-year absence. His new Apple TV+ series was announced back in 2022, and now we have a title, a release date, and a mysterious teaser. Pluribus will premiere on Apple TV+ on November 7, 2025, and will center around "the most miserable person on Earth" who "must save the world from happiness." Pluribus (which means "many" or "several" in Latin) is a science fiction series set, much like Gilligan's previous two series, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It will star Rhea Seehorn, who earned rave reviews in Better Call Saul as lawyer Kim Wexler.

However, Seehorn is not in evidence in the teaser, which is titled "Happiness Is Contagious" and opens in a commercial building at night. As crickets chirp outside, a woman carefully removes donuts from a box, one by one, and gives them a big lick,...

“Pluribus” will star Emmy-nominated actress Rhea Seehorn, best known for her performance in Gilligan’s “Breaking Bad” spinoff “Better Call Saul” as Kim Wexler. This time Gilligan’s show will not revolve around meth labs or courtrooms, but it promises to take viewers on an equally mind-bending journey.

Already picked up for a second season, Apple described the drama series as “a genre-bending original in which the most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness.” Seehorn will be joined by Karolina Wydra (“Sneaky Pete”) and Carlos-Manuel Vesga (“Donde Tú Quieras”) as series regulars,...

Is there a downside to being happy? According to “Breaking Bad” creator Vince Gilligan, there is. Gilligan returns to TV after wrapping his “Breaking Bad” spinoff series “Better Call Saul” with his latest franchise, “Pluribus.”

The secretive series reunites Gilligan with his “Better Call Saul” star Rhea Seehorn; the science fiction drama Apple TV+ show has also already been renewed for a second season, months prior to its first season release.

“Pluribus” is billed as a “genre-bending original in which the most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness.” The logline reads: “Happiness is contagious.” In addition to Seehorn, the series stars Karolina Wydra (“Sneaky Pete”) and Carlos-Manuel Vesga (“Donde Tú Quieras”), and guest stars Miriam Shor (“American Fiction”) and Samba Schutte (“Our Flag Means Death”).

We’ve been waiting not so patiently for news about Rhea Seehorn’s new Apple TV+ series with Vince Gilligan — and now we finally have a name to call it, at least.

Gilligan, who also created Saul’s forerunner Breaking Bad, will serve as writer and showrunner.

Darren Star has created some pretty iconic TV shows over the years.

From Beverly Hills, 9021 to Sex and the City, Grosse Pointe and the most recent Emily In Paris.

Prior to Emily in Paris, Darren also had the TV Land hit Younger, which starred Sutton Foster, Peter Hermann, Hilary Duff, Debi Mazar, Miriam Shor, Nico Tortorella and more.

In a recent interview, Darren opened up about the streaming success of Younger on Netflix, and if he would return for a revival if asked.

“When I was doing Younger, it was made to be bingeable, every episode sort of had a cliffhanger. I thought, Oh, this could get on streaming, it’s going to feel very streamable and bingeable,” Darren told Deadline. “So I was hoping but you never know — I mean, my dream was to see the show get acquired by Netflix, and it was wonderful when it happened.

Of the hundreds of half-hour comedies available on streaming, one title dominated the U.S. rankings for the first five months of 2025, Darren Star’s 2015 TV Land series Younger, whose seven seasons took seven of the Top 10 spots in U.S. viewership for January-May for its Netflix run, according to data recently released by Luminate. Season 1 ranked the highest, at #3, logging 2.4B views, with the rest of the seasons charting at #5-#10 with viewership between 1.4B-1.9B.

Younger‘s ascend was almost instant after all seven seasons of the series, starring Sutton Foster as a 40-year old single mom pretending to be 26 in order to land an assistant job in publishing, were made available on Netflix domestically in January, almost a decade after the show made its debut on TV Land in March 2015. The series,...

Younger is having a moment again!

The TV Land dramedy premiered in 2015 and ran through 2021, but after arriving on Netflix, the show has enjoyed a huge boost in popularity once again.

Now, fans are curious if a potential Season 8 could be in the works.

Here’s a synopsis of the show, which features a cast including Sutton Foster, Hilary Duff and Nico Tortorella: “After being mistaken for younger than she really is, a single mother decides to take the chance to reboot her career and her love life as a 26-year old.”

One actor from the series is now speaking out about the renewed interest in the series, and the potential for a continatuion.

Darren Star has created many iconic series like Beverly Hills, 90210, Melrose Place, Sex and the City, and, most recently, Emily in Paris. Although not all series received stunning reviews, they have grown a loyal following.

A different comedy series stands out — Younger. The comedy-drama series, which premiered in 2015 on TV Land, received positive reviews and ran for seven seasons. Netflix has recently released the highly underrated series on the platform and, for the week between Jan. 20 and Jan. 26, three of its seasons were in the Top 10 in the U.S., Tudum reports, finally getting the recognition it deserves.

A confluence of complications wreaked havoc on Younger Season 7 and significantly hampered the appearance of a main character.

In Younger, Tony Award-winner Sutton Foster played Liza Miller, a 40-year-old woman who poses as someone much younger than her actual age to give herself a leg up in the job market.

Liza lands a gig at a high-powered publishing gig called Empirical Press and must maintain the facade that she’s in her 20s, despite frequent circumstances that threaten to out her. Miriam Shor played Diana Trout, Liza’s boss at Empirical.

For seven stellar seasons, audiences anxiously tuned in to see how 40-something single mother Liza Miller would be able to juggle her thrilling double life, with the recent divorcée pretending to be a 26-year-old, in order to find success in an ageist publishing industry in the smash hit Younger. Featuring the talents of Sutton Foster, Debi Mazar, and Hilary Duff, the fun and quirky series became an underrated success with fans and kept viewers hooked from beginning to end, concluding its impressive run in 2021.

Despite becoming such a knockout with viewers, many fans were shocked when Younger completed its television tenure after seven seasons, with some wondering if the entertaining dramedy had been canceled.

Thankfully, Netflix renewed Emily in Paris season 5, which will continue Emily's adventures in Rome with Marcello. In spite of some legitimate questions, Gabriel will be back to seemingly fight for Emily, but we'll see how that goes for him. Hopefully, season 5 will begin filming soon for a release date later this year, but until then, there's a new show that's a perfect replacement for Netflix's rom-com.

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Younger!

The TV Land comedy Younger, which stars Sutton Foster and Hilary Duff, includes numerous established actors across seven seasons, creating lovable and entertaining characters. The show follows a 40-year-old divorcee mom named Liza Miller, who lies about her age to get an assistant job at a publishing house. Younger built a large fanbase across six years, garnering numerous nominations at the Critics' Choice Awards, People's Choice Awards, and Teen Choice Awards.

Besides the wacky premise, the show thrives thanks to the incredible cast. Though Liza is the lead, many of her friends, coworkers, and love interests have the same amount of time and character development in Younger, making them just as enjoyable as the quirky aspiring editor. Luckily, the cast consists of numerous established actors and a handful of standout up-and-comers who make even the most hateable character fun to watch.

Actor

Character...

While Younger was just a little TV series that started on TV Land, it blew up to become hugely popular thanks to the pretty stellar Younger cast. Foster stars as Liza Miller, a 40-year-old divorcee who realizes she can pass off as a 20-something woman and lies about her age to get a job in the publishing industry. She then makes new friends but has to keep lying about her age to protect her job. Some actors have been in the business for decades, and some have lengthy resumes in the theater world.

Hilary Duff may have been the most recognizable name in the cast. Still, fans might recognize other cast members from projects they have been in, with Foster in the lead role and names like Debi Mazar and Miriam Shor in key supporting roles. Many of the Younger cast members have also already gone on to star in other projects,...

While discussions about classic movies are often focused on the highest-earning, biggest blockbuster sensations in a given year, the quieter and smaller independent films are the ones that frequently shine through for years to come. But with hundreds of movies coming out every year, and more and more independently financed movies making it to the big screen, some great movies end up left behind or underrated.

The 2000s was a decade filled with excellent independent movies, bolstered by the boom in independent films of the 1990s led by movie-making juggernauts like Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino, Paul Thomas Anderson, Steven Soderbergh, and Wes Anderson. And while some indie movies are remembered as some of the best of the decade, some others that have been left behind should be at the top of film fans' watch lists.

The new year is fast approaching, and it's already time to start planning your 2025 binge-watches. Apart from all of the excellent new streaming shows set to premiere throughout the year, there are inevitably a whole crop of fan-favorite shows that find their way onto Netflix for an unexpected resurgence, just like Suits, Your Honor, and plenty of other recents hits.

In January 2025, Netflix welcomes a small handful of recent small screen favorites like TV Land's rom-com Younger and the newest spinoff from The Walking Dead universe coming to Netflix for the first time, and in another case, a time-tested hit procedural will see its earliest seasons returning after being removed months prior.

Emily in Paris is one of the best shows on Netflix and has been since the series premiered in October 2020. Since then, we've seen four seasons of the hit Netflix original series starring Lily Collins. The most recent season, Emily in Paris season 4, was released in two parts in August and September 2024, respectively. There's been a lot of talk lately about Emily in Paris season 5, which was announced via Netflix this fall.

Because this show is so popular and beloved and because we have so long to wait until season 5 premieres, fans are looking for new shows like Emily in Paris to watch while they wait. And, we don't blame them. There are some long gaps between seasons of Emily in Paris, as we've seen over the last few years.

Nebula has set the cast for its upcoming short film from “Night of the Coconut” director and popular video essayist Patrick Willems, “The Dinner Plan.” A dark comedy about a guy with a rare food allergy who’s trying to make it through a stressful dinner party at his boss’s house, the cast includes “The Tick” star Griffin Newman, “American Fiction’s” Miriam Shor and “Severance” star Zach Cherry, among four other stars.

Per the logline for “The Dinner Plan,” “When he’s pressured into attending a dinner party hosted by his boss, a man who suffers from a rare food allergy must navigate the most stressful night of his life with one primary objective: just don’t throw up in front of everyone.”

Actors joining the ensemble cast for the project include Newman, Shor, John Hodgman, Eudora Peterson, Geoffrey Cantor, Cherry and Cindy Cheung.

Before has earned a career-low Rotten Tomatoes score for star Billy Crystal. The actor, who is best known for his roles in comedies including When Harry Met Sally, Monsters, Inc., and City Slickers, stars in the Apple TV+ series as widower psychologist Eli, who discovers that he has a mysterious connection to his newest patient. The Before cast also includes Jacobi Jupe, Maria Dizzia, Ava Lalezarzadeh, Rosie Perez, Judith Light, Itzhak Perlman, and Miriam Shor.

Rotten Tomatoes has now tabulated a score for Before out of 12 different critics' reviews. While it could fluctuate as more reviews are added, at the time of writing, it is a firmly Rotten 33%. This marks the worst Rotten Tomatoes score for a project with Crystal in a major role since 2012, when he starred in both Parental Guidance (18%) and Small Apartments (30%). In general, it is his worst score since 2016's The Comedian (24%), in which he made a cameo as himself.

There are two things I never thought I would say in the same sentence: “Billy Crystal stars in Before, an Eli Roth-produced psychological horror thriller.” While it’s refreshing to see Apple TV+ stream something more mainstream instead of the usual prestige projects that no one watches, this is a misstep in almost every way.

The series is poorly written, with disjointed scenes and weak tropes already filled with ’80s and ’90s thriller clichés. And when the story starts to trudge along, which is often, it throws in an inexplicable, dreamlike jump-scare cut that does nothing but cause headaches and a touch of vertigo. It’s only a matter of time Before the series sparks acute conversion boredom household-wide.

If the devil offers you seven wishes, use one to make them watch the underrated Brendan Fraser comedy, Bedazzled, which will soon be released for free on Tubi. Loosely based on the 1967 movie of the same name, the 2000 version of Bedazzled stars Elizabeth Hurley as the Devil, who offers a heartbroken Elliot Richards (Fraser) seven wishes in exchange for his soul. Of course, the devil is in the details, and Fraser's miscalculated wishes lead to a whole host of shenanigans.

Directed by Harold Ramis, Bedazzled was a critical misfire when it was released in 2000. Holding a middling (literally) Rotten Tomatoes score of 50%. The critics actually enjoyed the movie more than audiences, with a slightly worse 43% audience score.

Emily in Paris became one of Netflix’s biggest hit series upon its release but I think it was also one of the most hated shows.

Younger is a unique show defying genre tropes by not pairing everyone off for a 'happy' ending. Characters like Zane and Diana have unclear relationship statuses post-show, leaving fans to speculate. Liza and Josh's journey in Younger ends with a hint at a happy ending, mirroring their meet-cute moment.

Younger, as much as it is a series about friendship, careers, and making it in New York, is a show about relationships. Based on the book of the same name by Pamela Redmond Satran, the comedy-drama ran for 7 seasons between 2015 and 2021, and focuses on Liza, a recently divorced woman in her 40s who decides to pretend to be in her 20s.
