KEY POINTS

  • Vince Gilligan, famous for Breaking Bad, created the sci-fi drama Pluribus, streaming exclusively on Apple TV.
  • The first season ends with a virus of alien origin disrupting society, leaving many plot questions intentionally unresolved.
  • Apple TV announced a second season for Pluribus, promising to explore these mysterious virus-related threads further.

Apple TV’s Pluribus, created by Vince Gilligan—yes, the Breaking Bad brain—wrapped season one with a finale that feels like a puzzle missing half the pieces. The show’s big event? An extraterrestrial virus infecting humanity, released just because sci-fi needs an apocalypse. Despite this, Apple TV greenlit season two before anyone had a chance to ask 'Wait, what just happened?' The finale and the beginning both spin a thread about virus origin mysteries, human drama, and 'potentially explosive' plots, making viewers less like fans and more like confused scientists running out of hypotheses.
