Pluribus
"Happiness is a state of mind."
Overview
The most miserable person on Earth must save the world from happiness.
Pluribus leans into a bleak brand of dark comedy set against the backdrop of an isolated New Mexico landscape. The series tracks a protagonist who, despite being characterized as the most miserable person on the planet, finds herself burdened with the strange task of preventing the arrival of universal contentment. It is a show about the tension between deep loneliness and the pressure to conform to a collective state of well-being.
Rhea Seehorn anchors the drama in an environment where internal disturbance creates constant friction with the external world. The narrative explores how a person who has made a home in their own sadness handles the prospect of a forced transformation into something lighter. Instead of offering a standard science fiction premise, the show focuses on the specific friction between a solitary lesbian lead and a society that demands the surrender of her distinctive, difficult internal life.
