Unlike other streaming services like Netflix, Apple tends to release its original shows weekly - Pluribus included. It gives viewers plenty of opportunity to dissect what happened the previous weeks for any clues!

Pluribus is set to have nine episodes in total, Apple TV has confirmed - with US date and UK dates. The full schedule is as follows:

  • November 6/ 7 - episode 1 & 2
  • November 13/ 14 - episode 3
  • November 20/ 21 - episode 4
  • November 25/26 - episode 5
  • December 4/5 - episode 6
  • December 11/12 - episode 7
  • December 18/19 - episode 8
  • December 23/ 24 - episode 9

It is the second time that an episode of Pluribus has been moved to an early spot in the week. The show was previously moved due to the Thanksgiving holiday in the US in November.

What time does Pluribus episode 9 come out on Apple TV?

Apple is timing the release of episodes of Pluribus to land in a prime spot for American audiences - unlike its usual timings. The platform even crashed during the launch of episodes one and two last week, users claimed on social media.

Pluribus episode eight will be released at 9pm ET/ 6pm PT in America today (December 23). This works out at 2am British time and 3am CEST for European audiences on Wednesday (December 24).

What to expect from Pluribus this week?

Apple TV has confirmed it will be called ‘La Chica o El Mundo’’ and is set to be one of the longest episodes of the season at 57 minutes. The synopsis on the app teases: “Season finale. Manousos arrives in Albuquerque and complications ensue.

“Carol visits the last best place on Earth.”

Who is in the cast of Pluribus?

Apple TV has been very secretive about the show, beyond a simple tag line, and information is scarce. However, we do know some of the cast including the main star.

Emmy-nominated actor Rhea Seehorn, who played Kim Wexler in Better Call Saul - the prequel to Breaking Bad. She will be joined by the following actors: Karolina Wydra (“Sneaky Pete”) and Carlos-Manuel Vesga (“The Hijacking of Flight 601”), and guest stars Miriam Shor (“American Fiction”) and Samba Schutte (“Our Flag Means Death”).

Karolina plays Zosia, who was absent for a while but returned at the end of episode 7. Meanwhile, Carlos-Manuel Vesga is Manousos, one of Carol’s fellow survivors.

Will there be a second season of Pluribus?

The show has been a smash hit for Apple TV, quickly becoming its most watched original show. However, even if that had not been the case, the streamer had given it a two season order originally - so season two was already in the pipeline.

Vince Gilligan has talked about keeping it going for four seasons - saying he wants to keep it going as long as Rhea Seehorn is game.
