Rose Byrne is freaking fantastic.
I mean, you know, absolutely.
Like, I've seen Bridesmaids.
You know, I originally knew her, I think, at first from Damages.
I think it really hits me watching this show how fantastic, you know, in terms of delivery, in terms often of physical comedy, comedic actress she is.
Like, it's honestly one of my favorite performances on TV right now.
No woman's playing to me.
Well, let me ask you a question before I start talking about it.
You came to it a little late.
Did you go into Pluribus spoiled or did you manage to be unspoiled?
God bless you that you managed that.
I suppose I should say up front, like, I'm going to need to talk about what the show is about.
So, you know, plug your ears if you're somebody who's... I'm very much of the camp that a good story is unspoilable.
It cannot be ruined by spoilers.
If you feel otherwise, you know, just tune me up for a second.
But Pluribus was a show that arrived with a great deal of mystery about it because its premise is so wild.
Essentially, an alien RNA virus arrives on Earth by means of an intergalactic radio signal.
that infects most of humanity and causes them to become united in a joyous collective mind.
