"It's something you'll likely be asking yourself a lot while watching. I certainly did. But that ongoing sense of mystery, and the measured pace with which Pluribus reveals itself, is one of the best parts of the new series from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan. I can't tell you a lot about Pluribus just yet - but I can tell you that being bewildered is part of the appeal."
"Carol is a successful writer of fantasy novels - excuse me, "speculative historical romance literature" - and she hates both her work and her audience. She wants to do something more meaningful, but the money she rakes in from her books makes it hard to make the switch. Despite being rich and successful, and having a caring partner who doubles as her very capable manager (Miriam Shor), Carol is mostly miserable, though she's largely able to fake it in public."
Carol is a wealthy, successful writer of speculative historical romance who despises her work and audience and struggles to pursue more meaningful art due to financial incentives. She maintains a public façade with a caring partner and manager, Miriam Shor’s character. After a near-apocalyptic global event, nearly everyone on Earth becomes afflicted with unyielding happiness, becoming peaceful, collaborative, and incapable of harming living beings. Carol remains unaffected despite attempts to join them. The series unfolds at a measured pace, emphasizing bewilderment and mystery as central emotional tones while exploring the moral and practical consequences of worldwide enforced happiness.
