The highly-praised science fiction series Pluribus, from the acclaimed creator of Breaking Bad, continues its mysterious run on Apple TV this week. After a two-episode premiere that left viewers craving more, the next instalment is ready to debut.
Pluribus Episode 3 UK Release Schedule
For British audiences eager to continue the journey, the release pattern is key. While the show launched in the US on Thursday, November 6, and in the UK on Friday, November 7, the weekly schedule now settles into a consistent rhythm.
Episode 3, titled 'Grenade', will be available for American subscribers on Thursday, November 13, at 9pm ET (6pm PT). For viewers in the United Kingdom, this translates to an early morning release on Friday, November 14, at 2am GMT.
This prime-time US release strategy caused some disruption last week, with users reporting the Apple TV platform temporarily crashed during the launch of the first two episodes. The full broadcast schedule confirms that new episodes will continue to drop weekly, leading up to the season finale on Boxing Day, December 26.
What to Expect in the Next Episode
The upcoming episode promises more of the intrigue that has defined the series so far. The official synopsis for 'Grenade' teases: “The World just wants to help - which infuriates Carol. A heart-to-heart conversation ends with a bang.”
According to the Apple TV app, episode 3 will have a runtime of approximately 43 minutes, making it slightly shorter than the first two episodes of the season. Apple TV has confirmed that the first season of Pluribus will consist of nine episodes in total.
The Stellar Cast Behind the Mystery
Apple TV has been notoriously secretive about the show's plot, but the cast list features some standout talent. Leading the series is Emmy-nominated actor Rhea Seehorn, renowned for her role as Kim Wexler in Better Call Saul.
She is joined by a supporting cast that includes Karolina Wydra from Sneaky Pete and Carlos-Manuel Vesga from The Hijacking of Flight 601. The series also features guest stars Miriam Shor (American Fiction) and Samba Schutte (Our Flag Means Death).
With a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes and the creative force of Vince Gilligan at the helm, Pluribus has quickly become a must-watch series, with its weekly releases keeping audiences guessing until the final episode airs.
