Pluribus Reviews Want to See More Seehorn

Reviews for the show Pluribus consistently highlight two things: lots of debate over what constitutes a spoiler, and praise for Rhea Seehorn’s performance. While Vince Gilligan’s return to Albuquerque and the show’s ambitious sci-fi story and slow pace appeal to some viewers more than others, Seehorn is universally lauded for her exceptional ability to portray both emotional pain and humor. As NPR’s Linda Holmes notes, Seehorn’s character, Carol, is dealing with deep struggles, but Seehorn delivers those moments with remarkable wit and expression.

Wow, everyone was trying to watch the new show Pluribus as soon as it dropped! It was crazy – it actually seemed to overload Apple TV, with thousands of people reporting issues. Seriously, it felt like we were all thinking the same thing – we had to watch it right away! And the response has been amazing – everyone’s loving it!

Look, Pluribus isn’t going to be for everyone. It’s slow-burn and the whole concept is pretty out there, so it might not grab you right away. But honestly, if you let it, it could completely consume you for a few weeks while it’s on Apple TV+. I really think you should give it a shot. There’s something truly special brewing in this show, but you have to be patient and just trust where it’s going. It’s worth it, I promise.

As you start watching Pluribus, it’s clear why the creator, Gilligan, wanted to build a show around an actress as talented as Seehorn. But the show truly works because of Seehorn – it’s hard to imagine anyone else in the lead role. She’s absolutely essential to the entire project – the central figure, the main attraction, and what holds everything together. While Pluribus represents a chance for Gilligan to fully realize his vision with a significant budget, it’s also Seehorn’s moment to shine, and she delivers a captivating performance.

It’s pretty bold to look at the state of things in 2025 – especially as someone who doesn’t support Trump – and suggest that things might actually be worse if everyone simply cooperated. That’s essentially what the show Pluribus does. While the show isn’t perfect – it’s a slow-paced story that doesn’t always use actress Ann Seehorn effectively – the sheer nerve of posing that question is remarkable, according to Lucy Mangan of The Guardian.

In Pluribus, Carol is shown struggling with intense grief, wandering through abandoned places and empty streets, and feeling the emptiness of a life lacking connection. However, the show also highlights Anna Gunn’s comedic talent, which perfectly complements both the show’s exploration of deep sadness and the playful energy that made her a great partner to Bob Odenkirk, even during his Breaking Bad days when his character provided much of the comic relief. Despite Carol’s profound despair, Anna Seehorn delivers wonderfully amusing reactions and expressions.
