It looks like Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul creator Vince Gilligan has a brand new project ready to hit Apple TV+, and we couldn’t be

more excited to check it out! Called Pluribus, it has a very special tie to The Young and the Restless and an intriguing premise that already has us hooked.

 

 

According to Entertainment Weekly, the new series stars Rhea Seahorn as romance novelist Carol Sturka — who seems to be the only person immune to a new virus that makes everyone happy and optimistic! We know, it doesn’t sound terrible, but as in most sci-fi dramas, we’re guessing all is not as it seems! So Carol sets off to figure out what’s wrong and how she can cure the world of interminable happiness

That’s all intriguing enough, but then DiscussingFilm went and released the trailer and we were hooked! Because the first voice we heard was one very familiar to The Young and the Restless fans — and it belonged to Peter Bergman! Check out the trailer below to hear what Bergman’s mysterious character (who is possibly the United States president) has to say to Carol.

 

 

Let’s just say that the rest of the world isn’t planning on letting Carol go about in misery. They’re going to figure out why she isn’t infected, and they’re going to “fix” it. At least, that’s what Bergman’s cheerfully ominous character promises her in the trailer.

What are your thoughts? Are you excited to check out the new series? And if you were trapped in a world of eternally happy people… would you want to join them, or stop them? You can decide for yourself and check out Peter Bergman’s juicy new role when the series debuts on November 7th on Apple TV!
