Streaming Pluribus

The thing is. Given his track record of multiple series, am I going to live long enough to see it out?
Shaping up to be a classic.

People complaining how it moves slowly forget that people said the same thing about Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.

That is just how Vince Gilligan tells his stories I guess. Season 1 was very good, interested to see where they take it in Season 2, and how many seasons they have in mind.

Into the 3rd season of my BCS rewatch & while I enjoyed it the first time around when it aired, so far it's been much better than I remember, brilliant TV.

I think Vince Gilligan shows are a better watch without a weekly/season wait. I found this to be the case with Pluribus, as I smashed through S1 in a few days once it had already aired. I think there is more tolerance of slower moving episodes (like episode 7) when you know you have the next episode queued up right away.

I don't know what the stats are, but I feel like a lot of people discovered Breaking Bad, and it really developed a cult status once it went to streaming and people could watch it all at once.

Yeah the 1 or 2 episodes a night is heaven. I am literally looking forward to them every day, living life on the wild side as I do

Loved it. Late to the party but finished it in 2 days.

Just wish this season was longer than 9 episodes and season 2 wasn’t so far away. I felt like much more could’ve happened.

The only issue I have is it seems Carol and Minousos were the only people to have normal reactions to the hivemind. But I guess that’s the point.

Finished last night. Definitely worth waiting and then binging. Was a bit frustrated with how slow it was at first but by the time it finished i was all in. Thank goodness I wasn't trying to watch it week by week.

I liked the week by week episode release. We got some good discussion and speculation about what was going on.

Yep. That's the thing I'm missing out on by avoiding this thread for sure but I think i prefer the binge.
