It’s always going to be exciting when you get to reveal a first look at a show from Vince Gilligan, the creator of Breaking Bad, even more so when it’s a sci-fi adventure.

Yes, below, we have the first teaser for Pluribus, Apple TV+’s new sci-fi drama from Gilligan, the man behind Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul and not only that, but it stars Saul’s Rhea Seehorn, left.

The teaser dropped at SDCC today and, according to the synopsis, the show is “a genre-bending original in which the most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness”.

The series drops on November 7th with a double-episode and then single weekly episodes afterwards, spanning nine episodes until Boxing Day (December 26th); on top of that, the show already has a second season order from Apple.

As well as Seehorn, the cast also includes Karolina Wydra, Carlos-Manuel Vesga, Miriam Shor, and Samba Schutte.

With the pedigree behind the show and Apple TV+’s track record for great TV, this is an absolute must-watch.

Thoughts? I know you have them and I wanna hear ’em all.

Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
