In 1973's Soylent Green, Charlton Heston discovers the miracle food is made of people. In 2026, we're being sold something similar. There is nothing artificial about artificial intelligence. The name was a branding exercise, invented at Dartmouth in 1956 by a man who didn't want to argue with Norbert Wiener about cybernetics. Strip out the god and what's left is the accumulated cognitive labour of humanity, compressed and sold back to us for twenty dollars a month. Not artificial. Collective. Which changes the question from "will the machine wake up" to "who enclosed the commons this time?" On Dartmouth, the Enclosure Acts, Marx's Fragment on Machines, and Vince Gilligan's Pluribus.

Karolina Wydra and Rhea Seehorn are electric together as Zosia and Carol in Apple TV's Pluribus. You can't help but get swept up in their connection, especially in the tail end of Episode 9, “La Chica o El Mundo,” when the two go on the ultimate globe-trotting excursion together. Zosia presents herself as the perfect partner and Carol seems happier than ever. But, then Carol is forced to reengage with the reality of her situation during their conversation in their luxurious ski lodge. Zosia isn't just Zosia. She's The Joined, and The Joined's mission hasn't changed. They want Carol to be one of them, and by the end of Season 1 of Pluribus, it's revealed that that could happen whether Carol agrees to it or not.During their conversation, Zosia confirms that they require Carol's stem cells to complete The Joining. But then Carol asks, “If I don't expressly give you my consent to jam a giant needle in my ass, then you can't take them and I stay me, right?” When Zosia replies, “That would be correct,” Carol instantly picks up on the fact that something's changed. The Joined have discovered that they can get Carol's stem cells via her frozen eggs. In fact, they're already working on it, and should the process prove successful, they'll be able to make Carol Join without her consent. Carol pleads, “If you loved me, you wouldn't do this,” to which Zosia replies, “Please understand, we have to do this because we love you.”While on Collider Ladies Night, Wydra took a moment to discuss tackling that scene with Seehorn, and to explain how she approached playing the collision of wanting to make Carol happy, with The Joining being of the utmost importance to them. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In front of an audience at Chapman University, the revered Emmy-nominated actress reflects on how a decade of unsuccessful auditions paved the way for her casting on 'Better Call Saul,' how she reacted to learning that Vince Gilligan had written 'Pluribus' for her, and why playing Carol Sturka on that hit Apple TV show is both the most challenging and rewarding job she has ever had.

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Lanterns opens strong with an episode that manages to slip in a ton of expositional Green Lantern lore, an intriguing small town mystery, a bunch colorful characters all pushing against each other's edges (with some fantastic actors playing them), all while asking some deeper questions about human nature, and even throwing in a few jokes that actually made us laugh.

Karolina Wydra joins Son of a Binge host Reshma Gopaldas to talk all about her triumphant return to television in Vince Gilligan's Pluribus, also starring Rhea Seehorn. Wydra began her career as a model, then went on to appear in various television shows and films. She hung with the slutty vampires in True Blood, rolled in the medical world in House, flirted with Ryan Gosling in Crazy, Stupid, Love, and snuck around with Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston in Sneaky Pete.In 2020, the with everyone being stuck at home, Wydra decided it would be a good time to start a family. Her agent and manager promptly dropped her. Oof, wait to support women Hollywood. After her Hollywood break... up, Wydra went on to have two boys. Then she got a call. Or rather an email. The team behind Vince Gilligan's Pluribus wanted her to audition. While on vacation with her good friend, Caitríona Balfe (Outlander, Sense & Sensibility), she found out they wanted to screen test her. With no agent or manager, Wydra panicked, but Balfe stepped in to help. Wydra got the role of Zosia, and it's hard to imagine anyone else playing her. She opens up about what it's like working with Gilligan and Rhea Seehorn. She breaks down their characters' relationship, first kiss, and what it's really like working with Seehorn. She also talks about the female friendships that have sustained her in both the modeling and acting industries.Wydra was just nominated for an Emmy for Supporting Actress in a Drama series for her role as Zosia. Pluribus is streaming now on Apple TV. Subscribe to Reshma Gopaldas on YouTube for video episodes.

After his hit shows ‘Breaking Bad' and ‘Better Call Saul,' creator and showrunner Vince Gilligan is back with the sci-fi thriller ‘Pluribus.' We sat down with Gilligan at a reflective moment as he and his team were hard at work breaking Season 2. Hear him break down what worked and didn't in the first season, why directing crowd scenes was the hardest part of the premise to film, and what it was like finally shooting outside his beloved New Mexico (while not abandoning Albuquerque).

Sherry Thomas is one half of Bialy/Thomas & Associates, the casting powerhouse behind Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, The Walking Dead, The Handmaid's Tale and The Testaments, Barry, The Righteous Gemstones, Dead to Me, Apple TV+'s Sugar, and Broadway's Jersey Boys. She and Sharon have earned multiple Emmy nominations together across their 25-plus year partnership. Their most recent Emmy nom is for Apple TV+'s Pluribus, which is Vince Gilligan's follow-up to Breaking Bad. It's a full-circle moment: Sherry and her partner Sharon Bialy are the team who first brought Bryan Cranston to Gilligan's attention nearly two decades ago.  In this episode, we go all the way back to New Hampshire and Massachusetts, where a girl obsessed with Donny and Marie and Three's Company had no idea she'd end up building an empire in casting. She landed in LA not knowing a single person. She slept on couches for two years. She worked retail at the Gap. And then, through a chain of small moments (a charity basketball game, a fundraiser, a woman named Victoria Burroughs) she found her way into a casting office and never looked back. We dive into:  Her first job as a location casting assistant on Contact Meeting her business partner Sharon Bialy at a Starbucks and building a 25-plus year partnership without ever putting anything in writing What she wishes every producer understood about working with casting directors Her honest, unfiltered take on AI in casting and what it means for actors How becoming a mom to two teenage daughters changed the way she sees ambition and grit Sherry is candid, funny, and doesn't hold back, whether she's talking about the gritty early days or the future of our industry. This is a primer for building a career (and a business) on relationships, resilience, and staying true to who you are.  AOP SUBSTACK

Composer of Pluribus, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, El Camino In this episode, Tony chats with Dave Porter, the award‑winning composer behind the sonic identity of Pluribus. Known for his long‑standing creative partnership with Vince Gilligan — beginning with Breaking Bad and continuing across multiple series — Porter brings a rare combination of classical training, electronic innovation, and narrative instinct to every project he touches. This conversation explores how Porter shaped the sound of Pluribus, from the unexpected use of vocals in the main theme to the way he threads vocal textures throughout the score. He breaks down how his classical foundation led him to electronic music, how experimentation became a core part of his process, and why one of his standout pieces draws inspiration from 1970s cinematic style. Tony also asks the question only Pluribus fans would dare: If Dave were absorbed into the collective, how would it change his music? His answer is as thoughtful as it is surprising.

A indústria de TV produziu 40% menos programas em 2026 do que no auge da Peak TV. Menos volume, mais prestígio. Mas será que isso significa mais qualidade, ou só menos opções para escolher os mesmos nomes de sempre?Este episódio investiga o Emmy 2026 em um momento de reorganização total do jogo. A HBO Max lidera com 122 indicações, mas a Apple TV+ surpreende como a "anti Netflix", apostando em curadoria enxuta e batendo recorde histórico. Enquanto isso, The Pitt aparece como a grande sensação do ano, resgatando o formato clássico da TV médica. Mas será hype de nostalgia ou mérito genuíno? E por que Rhea Seehorn finalmente sendo reconhecida parece uma reparação histórica atrasada demais?Rafael Arinelli, Thiago Muniz, Edu Sacer e Laysa Zanetti discutem a despedida de Hacks com números inéditos para uma comédia, o fenômeno Pluribus de Vince Gilligan, e as falhas estruturais do próprio Emmy, categorias definidas por minutagem, calendário confuso e a eterna injustiça dos telefilmes.Prestígio, nostalgia e tecnologia disputando o mesmo troféu.

While we wait for Dead City S3, here's a repost of the Jeffrey Dean Morgan panel from Walker Stalker Con Atlanta 2016. This happened just a few days after S7E1 aired, so it was fresh in people's minds, and it was JDM's first convention appearance as Negan. One of my favorite panels ever. JDM slips in and out of character, and quickly wins the crowd over. Let's see if he'll do the same for you :) We're also joined by Greg Nicotero, who directed the S7 premiere and gives a lot of great info on the thinking and logistics behind it. Enjoying the rewatch?

There's so much weight to this episode, in different ways. It's absolutely landmark episode of The Walking Dead. And I didn't remember how much it was just Negan applying constant pressure to Rick, until he breaks. Yes, it's hard to watch, and I don't blame anyone who thought it was too much. And also I think for what it was, it was done so well. Lucy and I are so pleased to be joined by Ben for this one to help us do it justice. Of course Ben hosts this podcast for Dead City coverage, and I think it was a good balance of viewpoints among the three of us. Hope you enjoy! As we mentioned on the podcast, the rewatch will be on hiatus for awhile after this one. Sometime in the next two weeks I'll be joined by Chris of The Talking Dead podcast and Rich to cover the new Evil Dead movie, Evil Dead Burn, and then soon after, Alex and Ben will be on for Dead City S3!  Enjoying the rewatch?

Welp, it's time. Here's Negan! Such a polarizing character, and y'all know I have my gripes. But I absolutely can't deny he brought a huge shot of adrenaline to this show. He's a character I often find incredibly fun to watch, and also, in some ways, frustratingly problematic. I'm very glad to have Alex here—cohost of our Dead City coverage and a huge Negan fan—to go over this landmark episode, with maybe the most iconic scene in all of The Walking Dead. So buckle up. Whether you like it or not, it's pee-pee pants city time. Mentioned Fantastic interview with Scott Gimple (video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kc9KuGaSCAY  Enjoying the rewatch?

Listen to separate the three layers of an arc -- does the character change? How do they feel about it? And how is the audience positioned to feel about it? Stu, Chas and Mel finally begin their long-awaited journey into CHARACTER ARCS. In this "primer" episode, we try find some learnings and analytical lenses that we can then apply in future breakdowns. In this episode, we explore differences between a character learning something and a character fundamentally changing, how to dramatise that, and how the show teaches the audience to perceive that transformation (whether positively or negatively). Throughout the discussion, we skate over A NEW HOPE, BLUE MOON, BREAKING BAD, BETTER CALL SAUL, the French real-time thriller FULL TIME, A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS, THE GREEN KNIGHT, ALL OF US STRANGERS, PREDATOR BADLANDS, FIELD OF DREAMS, MEG 2, and Stu's receding hairline. Ultimately, this discussion synthesises into a series of questions to ask of a story and the main point-of-view character living through that story: Does the audience enter the story with an expectation that characters will change? How does the story teach the audience to expect characters to change or not? Do the characters change? Is it experiential change or internal value change? How is that dramatised? Is the character aware that they changed? How do they feel about that change? Does that matter? How does the story want the audience to feel about that change? If different to the character's perception, how does the story pull that off? How does the story world punish or reward the change? What are the values explored by the arc? How does this relate to the theme? How is contrast vs affinity/unity portrayed through the characters' journey? Order vs disorder vs inertia What is the emotional event created between the character and audience as a result of the journey? Does the character end up more intimate or distant from the audience? In upcoming episodes, we intend to apply these lenses to stories with STEADFAST/RESILIENT arcs, POSITIVE arcs, NEGATIVE arcs and - potentially - a “WTF is this?!” arc.

Rhea Seehorn (Better Call Saul, Pluribus) joins us this week for a candid and grounded conversation about the weight of her recent Golden Globe win, the long road of rejections that shaped her, and the moment Vince Gilligan called to say he had written Pluribus specifically for her. Rhea opens up about watching herself on screen, suppressing her anger until her body forces it out, and finding the heroism in simply getting off the couch. We also talk about her mentor's advice on curtain calls, the brutal feedback she received about her looks early on, and why she believes the best acting comes from her healthiest place. Thank you to our sponsors:

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — So much heartbreak in this episode, between Gretchen breaking things off with Innie Dylan, Burt and Irving separating, Mark suffering and frustrated, and we even felt bad for Helena being oppressed by her father and Milchick being humiliated by Drummond (devour feculence, Drummond!). Lots to talk about, and I (Jason) am happy to be joined by my good friend Eric this week, with whom it was a pleasure to podcast.

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Of course as we suspected, viewing this episode through our analytical podcaster's lens we found a lot to dig into and appreciate about this episode and it's implications for Harmony Cobel's character, the series in general, and what it says about the real world.

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — An episode of thruples (sometimes with only two people), and so of course we invited in a third, listener Damian, for this week's podcast.

It's kind of like a chat forum, our own little private Podcastica space to talk about Severance, Pluribus, Fallout, Welcome to Derry, Alien: Earth, and whatever else we want. It's free, and it's fun. Invitation link: https://discord.gg/6WUMt3m3qe  Other shows we cover on this podcast: We cover these other intelligent, engaging, oftentimes delightfully twisted shows: Fallout (Amazon): A crazy retro-futuristic post-apocalyptic melange of wholesomeness and depravity. One of the best looking shows on TV, funny as hell, violent AF (but in a cartoony way), and with a great cast, including Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) and Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones). Not to be missed! Hosted by Jason, Kara, and Kasi. Pluribus (Apple TV): Everyone is transformed into a pleasant hive mind — except for Carol (Rhea Seehorn), the most miserable woman on the planet, who must save the world from happiness. It's sounds weird, and it is… in the best way. Created by the great Vince Gilligan, of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Hosted by Jason and Karen! IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO): A fun, scary, and surprisingly great prequel to the 2016 and 2019 IT movies, Pennywise stalks the children of 1962 Derry. A mix of heart, mystery, charm, and some shockingly disturbing Nightmare on Elme Street-esque horror. Cohosted by Shawn of Strange Indeed. Alien: Earth (FX): From the brilliant Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion), this one really scratches that sci-fi itch. A greedy corporate tech overlord transfers the consciousness of a group of terminally ill children into highly performant synth bodies. And the Xenomorph is in it, too. Also, Tim Olyphant!

"Pluribus" is an American post-apocalyptic science fiction television series created by Vince Gilligan for Apple TV. Set and filmed primarily in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the series follows novelist Carol Sturka (Rhea Seehorn), who finds herself isolated after an alien virus transforms the rest of humanity into a peaceful, content hive mind that nevertheless seeks to assimilate her and other immune individuals. The series has received acclaim from critics, with praise for Gilligan's writing and direction, Seehorn's performance, and the show's originality, tone, and stylistic influences. It was nominated for two Golden Globe Awards and two Critics' Choice Awards, with Seehorn winning Best Actress in a Drama Series in both ceremonies. Karolina Wydra was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about her work and experience making the series, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the show, which is now available to stream on Apple TV. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

What a breath of fresh air this episode is after the intensity and trauma of the season so far. The lightness and warmth of it are such a welcome relief. And what a milestone it is to see Rick and Michonne finally get together. The first time around it felt abrupt to some, but this rewatch has made it clear they were destined for each other from the moment they met. We're happy to be joined this week by special guest Clare Reterrer, one of the biggest Rick/Michonne shippers I know.

Has there ever been a scene in TWD as badass as Rick and crew and all the Alexandrians hacking and slashing their way through a horde of invading zeds?! I mean, amazing episode, and I'm happy to share it with special guest Veronica, who ranks it as her very favorite. PS I'm personally pouring one out for the Anderson family: Jesse, Ron, and especially poor Sam. You're gone, but not forgotten!
