Really enjoying it so far, and I think that first episode is one of the best directed pieces of TV/film I've seen all year.

Really dig how little dialogue there is, especially when it's only the infected onscreen.

I never watched BCS so this is my first exposure to Seehorn and she's great. Bonus great physical comedy performance by that drone in last week's episode.

I don't like how slow-going it is. There's so much unnecessary time spent watching things that far less time could be devoted to. I say this as someone who really enjoys the slow burn. I feel like it's trying to tell me how I should feel about what I'm seeing without me knowing it. Last night I was thinking, fuck, we're six episodes in and just now getting to the Paraguay dude's story.

I'm not super enamored with the visuals. They're fine, bit heavy-handed.

Premise is good though.

Abstaining for now.

The long tracking shot in the first episode—the one in which Carol drives past the people putting out fires, etc.—was mesmerizing.

Really love this show and specifically love the long scenes that depict a person working. BCS had loads of those too (e.g., Saul spending ages at a photocopy center doctoring a document). I could watch that all day.

Not crap.

I felt like the latest episode delivered with some good reveals and plot movement as well as some lol moments. I think my expectation with the series is for it to move at a slower pace than BB or BCS and feel a little more moody and lonely. Still interested to see where it goes. Also, I tend to binge watch stuff that's already been out for a few seasons, or drops an entire season at once. Watching Pluribus one episode per week certainly slows the feel down for me as well.

Didn’t get to watch tonight because my partner is out-of-town, and this is one of those shows we watch together.

It took some adjusting seeing Rhea Seehorn go from playing a mild-mannered lawyer to an ill-tempered asshole writer, but I’m all in now.
