>"I know that they are definitely sweating it in the writers' room, like working their butts off," she began. "And I think Vince [Gilligan, creator] said publicly recently that they are halfway through 'breaking' episodes, meaning just like the extremely detailed outlines."

They started writing for S2 in late December. I thought they'd have some scripts ready by now but they are only on detailed outlines. If they are halfway, then probably 4/5 episode outlines.

At Paley the writers said they'd be back by the end of the year so hopefully these outlines means they can write multiple scripts at once. I wonder if they want to have all the script done before they start shooting.

I can't even fathom the insane things that could be accomplished with the entirety of humanity focused on a single goal. No individual needs, bureaucracy, financial restrictions, and the million other things that hinder progress.

I know the Others want to build their antenna, but I would definitely be pushing how far they are willing to go to make me happy and how much of their resources they would divert from that goal.

I would ask them to build some insane megaprojects like a global bullet train network and to start colonizing mars and the moon. And while those are being built I'd be traveling all over the world in Air Force One 🤣.

The official Pluribus Podcast have just dropped a bonus episode where Rhea Seehorn and Carol Burnett just share stories from their careers and it is hilarious!

You do not need to have listened to the podcast before or even seen Pluribus. It's just a lovely listen (or watch). Recommended 🙂

I thought this show was an analogy for becoming famous right? Like the writer became rich & famous and started seeing the world of her fans as not human anymore, just people that worshiped her & were there to serve her.

And the guy in S America was like Howard Hughes, with his fans at the fence.

But I just can’t stand either of them, they are judgmental, sullen, negative, and insist on doing everything the hard way & alienating everyone.

Thoughts?
