Vince Gilligan, the creative force behind Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, is stepping into unfamiliar territory with his new sci-fi drama Pluribus. The Apple TV+ original premieres November 7 with two episodes, followed by weekly drops that will wrap up the nine-episode season on December 26. The show has already been renewed for Season 2, signaling Apple's early confidence in Gilligan's next big swing, Variety reported. The series premieres November 7, 2025, on Apple TV+ with two episodes.(Apple TV+) The series comes with the tagline 'Happiness is contagious,' but the plot is still shrouded in secrecy. Rhea Seehorn, the two-time Emmy nominee who played the iconic Kim Wexler, is back in the Gilligan universe.

In the clip, a woman in pink scrubs licks donuts and places them back into a box marked 'Help yourself,' complete with a smiley face. It's unsettling, strange, and very on-brand for Gilligan's knack for the bizarre. The cast includes Karolina Wydra (Sneaky Pete) and Carlos-Manuel Vesga (Donde Tú Quieras), with guest appearances by Miriam Shor (American Fiction) and Samba Schutte (Our Flag Means Death). Behind the camera, Gilligan is reuniting with some of his long-time collaborators.

Jenn Carroll and Trina Siopy are co-executive producers, while Sony Pictures Television is producing.

Speaking with Variety in 2023, Gilligan hinted at just how different this series will be. 'Pluribus has no crime, and no methamphetamine. The world changes very abruptly in the first episode, and then it is quite different. It's the modern world - the world we live in - but it changes very abruptly. And the consequences that that reaps hopefully provide drama for many, many episodes after that,' Gilligan said. FAQs What does Pluribus mean?

RMC issues warning about water tax fraud

Ranchi: The Ranchi Municipal Corporation (RMC) has issued a public alert after several water tax consumers reported receiving fraudulent WhatsApp messages, SMS, and calls claiming to be from RMC. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now These messages threatened disconnection of the water supply by 9:30 pm on Friday and urged users to download an APK file for immediate bill payment. A sample fake message reads: "Dear Customer, your Nagar Nigam water pipeline connection will be disconnected tonight at 9:30 pm due to unpaid bills. Please call customer care at 08240234872." After the message, callers sent a suspicious APK file and pressured recipients to open it. Messages reportedly originated from numbers such as 9835907984, 9905106050, and 7004812527. RMC clarified that neither the corporation nor its authorised water tax collection agency, M/s Shree Publication and Stationers, sends such messages or files. Citizens have been advised not to share OTPs, banking information, or download unknown links. An FIR was filed with the Cyber Crime Cell following instructions from the city administrator. For genuine payments, citizens should only use official RMC portals or apps. For complaints or queries, contact the toll-free helpline: 1800-570-1235, it said.
