    I didn’t think Better Call Saul or Breaking Bad could last as long as it did. Good thing I wasn’t the creator of those shows.

      there were plenty of “visible” stops/detours that could be made with the storylines of those 2 shows to keep them going though. (Regardless of outside issues like ratings or dumb execs)

      With Pluribus not so much. (Not without drastically changing what the show is)

      I’m loving Pluribus, but they’ve kinda prematurely blown their load with a couple of (pontential) story lines. We’ve seen Carol go “nuts” because of loneliness. Manousos made his journey and is meeting up with her next episode.

      Im sure Vince has a plan, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good one - or even if it is that it will be successful.

      People are people. Nobody is perfect - everyone makes mistakes/missteps. No one makes 100% of the shots they take.
