Silence never felt so loud. In Pluribus Episode 7 (“The Gap”), the show dials down the dialogue and cranks up the emotion. With Carol wandering alone through New Mexico and Manousos crossing continents to find her, Pluribus delivers its most poetic, gut-punching hour yet — and Rhea Seehorn and Carlos-Manuel Vesga are jaw-droppingly good.

Brandon and Chanel Talk about what they Watched This week (52:00)

Brandon & Chanel break down this word-light, emotion-heavy installment:Carol sings her way through grief: from R.E.M. to “Hot in Herre” to Sousa’s greatest hitsManousos practices English across the Darién Gap — “I am not one of them. I wish to save the world.”The fireworks scene and Carol’s near-death moment: dark, hilarious, existentialNature invades — wolves return, solitude creeps in, and the Others stay goneZosia’s surprise return — a wordless embrace that says everythingA masterclass in sound design: music, silence, buzzing drones, and gut-wrenching criesWhy this might be Pluribus’ most daring, visually stunning, and emotionally grounded episode yetWith its stunning cinematography, lack of traditional dialogue, and emotional storytelling told through music, motion, and silence, Episode 7 is an unforgettable midpoint marker. And Brandon & Chanel are here to unpack every lingering glance, aching lyric, and wilderness scream.🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe → https://www.youtube.com/@WeWasWatchin...#Pluribus #TheGap #RheaSeehorn #VinceGilligan #AppleTV #ManousosOviedo #CarolSturka #Zosia #TVRecap #WeWasWatching #SciFiDrama #EmotionalTV #SoundDesignMasterclass #WordlessStorytellingWe Was Watching

Nothing says “we’re not monsters” like shrink-wrapped human meat in a freezer. In Episode 6 of Pluribus (“HDP”), Carol uncovers the dark secret behind the Others' food supply — and let’s just say, she may never look at milk the same way again.Brandon & Chanel break down the jaw-dropping reveals:The Agri-Jet warehouse scene: Carol finds dismembered bodies, vats, grinders… and it gets worseWhat is HDP? Human. Derived. Protein. And yes, it’s exactly what it sounds likeThe John Cena appearance (!!) — the hivemind uses celebrities to explain everythingKoumba’s Vegas fantasy turns into a Bond parody gone rogue (bubble bath and all)Why the Others abandon Vegas the second Carol gets closeThe stem cell twist: how the Others plan to assimilate the immune — and why Carol vows to never consentCarol’s heartbreak over being excluded from the immune Zoom groupThat gut-punch ending: Manousos sees Carol’s video and finally hits the roadFrom drone deliveries to celebrity cameos to mass-produced “milk” that’s not really milk, Pluribus Episode 6 is a genre-bending cocktail of sci-fi horror, deadpan comedy, and existential dread. Rhea Seehorn delivers again, and Brandon & Chanel are here to make sense of every surreal, stomach-turning moment.🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe → https://www.youtube.com/@WeWasWatchin...

Everything connects… sort of. In the Season 1 finale of The Chair Company, titled “I Said To My Dog, ‘How Do You Like My Hippie Shirt?’”, Ron Trosper finally gets answers — and they’re somehow dumber, darker, and more disturbing than expected.Brandon & Chanel break down the absurd brilliance of the finale:Ron’s final decision: expose the conspiracy or protect Barb’s Everpump empire?Jeff is revealed as the real villain — and he's been recording pop songs as hold musicThe mysterious Stacy Crystals? Shot dead by a kid with a 3D-printed gun. Because of course.Mike’s “family” turns out to be… the family of a man whose heart he receivedThat Jason-mask mystery? Solved — and it’s somehow even weirder than expectedThe hot tub guy is literally now in a bathtub, tied up in Mike’s apartmentAnd yes… Amanda might have supernatural powers — or her deranged “boyfriend” is just full of itThe question of the chair’s collapse — accident or telekinetic revenge?With callbacks to every surreal sketch from earlier in the season, The Chair Company sticks the landing with a finale that mixes Lynchian menace, corporate satire, and one last barrage of Tim Robinson meltdowns.🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe →    / @wewaswatching  #TheChairCompany #TimRobinson #TeccaChairs #SeasonFinale #AmandaTelekinesis #Everpump #FisherRobay #StacyCrystals #RedBallMarket #WeWasWatching #ComedyThriller #TVRecap #CorporateConspiracy #SupernaturalSatire

The hivemind finally draws a boundary — and Carol crosses every one of them. In Pluribus Episode 5 (“Got Milk”), Carol’s actions finally catch up with her, and the Others ghost her… emotionally and literally. But the more space they give her, the deeper her paranoia — and her discoveries — go.Brandon & Chanel break it all down:The Others cut ties with Carol — and send her voicemail ghostings and drone deliveriesZosia is still in recovery… until Carol drugs her again (you read that right)Carol’s loneliness spirals into grief, anger, and a manic need for controlThe wolves are back — and this time, they go after Helen’s grave 😳What’s up with the milk? Carol’s dumpster dive reveals something strange inside those cartonsDog food factories, empty Agri-Jet facilities, and a final reveal that shocks Carol silentA reflection on whether the Others are harmless… or hiding something terrifying in plain sightCarol paints a headstone by hand — and paints herself further into a moral cornerAs Pluribus enters its second half, the show leans harder into post-apocalyptic horror, biotech conspiracy, and psychological breakdown — and Rhea Seehorn continues to carry it like a queen.

The Chair Company Episode 7 Recap | Ron Unravels the Truth, Barb Takes Charge, and Delaware Goes Off the Rails | Brandon & Chanel Breakdown

They made him think he could wish things into the world — and he did. In Episode 7 of The Chair Company, everything clicks into place — in the most absurd, hilarious, and horrifying way imaginable. From dog bites to deadly chairs to porn-shop standoffs, this is the episode where Ron Trosper might finally be right.

Brandon & Chanel unpack the spiraling brilliance of it all:

• Ron gets suspended and adopts a dog… who immediately bites him

• Barb delivers antibiotics and some marital realness (shoutout to Lake Bell’s best scene yet)

• Every bizarre thread — Tamblay’s, the group chat, Oliver Probblo, bug species, Scrooge cosplay — comes back full circle

• The Wendy’s ham subplot gets even more Midwesternly unhinged

• Delaware’s corrupt mayor isn’t the target — the real Tecca boss is funding Everpump

• The big confrontation at Alice’s party: Ron has the receipts… but he doesn’t “tell”

• Romance Depot guy vs. insufficiently horny customer = mini ITYSL sketch gold

• Ron chooses love over justice — and still ends the episode smiling in the mirror

This is the most satisfyingly chaotic episode yet. With Fincher-level plotting filtered through Lynch, The Onion, and your weirdest workplace dreams, The Chair Company delivers a modern-day style parody that’s as dense with gags as it is with dread.

This episode goes from “grief spiral” to “science experiment” to “full-blown ethics crisis.” In Pluribus Episode 4 (“The Truth Is In Here”), Carol takes control — but at what cost? As she searches for a way to stay human in a world run by a hivemind, her tactics grow more reckless, manipulative, and possibly lethal.Brandon & Chanel break it all down:The intro of Manousos Oviedo: starving, proud, and armed with a radioCarol’s grenade wish vs. hive logistics: satire or sci-fi logic fail?That fake Whole Foods restock — symbolic excess or narrative stretch?Larry and the hive’s honesty test: the Shakespeare of romantasy?!What Helen really thought of Carol’s books (oof)Carol injecting herself with Sodium Thiopental to uncover her subconscious truth — and what that recording revealsThe betrayal of Zosia: drugged without consent, dragged from the hospital, and pushed into cardiac arrestThe horror of Carol handcuffing herself to Zosia, crying “agency” while denying someone else theirsWhy Carol’s actions blur the line between freedom fighter and selfish villainWith Rhea Seehorn delivering a devastating performance and the script poking at the ethics of autonomy, grief, and identity in the face of collective control, Episode 4 asks the most harrowing question yet: Does Carol actually want to save the world — or just preserve herself?🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe → https://www.youtube.com/@WeWasWatchin...

This episode is where the hivemind stops being theoretical and starts handing out live grenades. In Pluribus Episode 3 (“Close Only Counts in Horseshoes and Hand Grenades”), Carol tests the boundaries of her immunity — and the show’s premise — with a shopping list of weapons, sarcasm, and grief-fueled defiance.Brandon & Chanel break it all down:Carol’s grenade wish gets granted — and she nearly takes out ZosiaThe “wish fulfillment” rules of the hivemind start to crack (literally)Carol’s Norwegian ice hotel flashback: goofy setup, clunky payoffThat restocked Whole Foods sequence: instant oat milk, max satireThe nuke-baiting convo with a DHL guy that’s straight out of Dr. StrangeloveCarol’s suicide-by-grenade metaphor — and what it says about the rules of this worldThe logic gaps: why hasn’t the hivemind dismantled all WMDs? Who’s actually in charge?Is Helen being used for emotional blackmail from beyond the grave?Pluribus continues to be bold, messy, and full of potential — but Episode 3 may be its most narratively shaky yet. Still, Rhea Seehorn carries every frame, and Brandon & Chanel are here for the existential breakdowns, metaphysical red flags, and Apple TV's weirdest sci-fi swings.🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe → https://www.youtube.com/@WeWasWatchin...

We’ve officially entered the weird zone. In Episode 5 of The Chair Company, “I Won. Zoom In.,” Ron and Mike take a road trip into the sketch-comedy Twilight Zone, and it might be the best (and most chaotic) episode yet. A Scrooge-obsessed cokehead, a method actor turned CFO impersonator, and a basement that might as well be a portal to another dimension? Yes, please.Brandon & Chanel break down all the madness:The best I Think You Should Leave–adjacent scene yet: Oliver Probblo’s “Scrooge all year” monologueRon and Mike’s descent into Ohio’s weirdest town — and why every door opens into a new nightmareA Christmas Carol-themed porn parody (seriously), a photo-hunt callback, and a coke-fueled brawlBasement chases, door slams, light pole climbing, and two concussions for RonMike’s emotional reveal: his estranged daughter, his past in the town, and his vulnerabilityDouglas survives a fridge (and drops a monologue worthy of Jim Downey’s Hall of Fame)Jamie clutches a crucifix while watching her boss lose his grip (again)That ending: Dickensian chaos, emotional catharsis, and one hell of a Scrooge punchlineThe Chair Company continues to merge paranoid 1970s thrillers with Adult Swim absurdism — and Brandon & Chanel are here for every glorious sketch-within-a-story beat.🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe →    / @wewaswatching

From the mind of Vince Gilligan (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul) comes the most original sci-fi premiere in years. In Episodes 1 & 2 of Pluribus (“We Is Us” and “Pirate Lady”), a rogue radio signal from deep space triggers a global transformation — and only one person is left unconnected: speculative romance author Carol Sturka, played by a powerhouse Rhea Seehorn.Brandon & Chanel dive into everything you missed:The alien RNA signal that infects the world via… saliva and donutsRhea Seehorn’s brilliant performance as the reluctant resistanceThe arrival of Pirate Lady, a real-life version of Carol’s book characterHelen’s tragic death and what it means to “join” the hivemindSeizures triggered by Carol’s emotions (that may have killed 11 million people 😬)The mysterious 12 “immunes” — are they humanity’s last hope or just passengers?Mind-melding, wine country, Air Force One cameos, and a very weird backhoe momentGilligan’s mix of psychological dread, sci-fi absurdism, and razor-sharp comedy makes Pluribus feel like a collision of Arrival, Watchmen, and Better Call Saul. This is the kind of show you binge, rewatch, and obsess over — and Brandon & Chanel are breaking it all down.🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCy...🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe → https://www.youtube.com/@WeWasWatchin...#Pluribus #RheaSeehorn #VinceGilligan #AppleTV #WeIsUs #PirateLady #Hivemind #SciFiThriller #WeWasWatching #TVRecap #BreakingBadFans #BetterCallSaul #CarolSturka #MindControlSciFi

Opioids. In. The. Chairs. That’s the theory, and Ron Trosper is all in. In The Chair Company Episode 4, the paranoia ratchets up as Ron’s delusions (or revelations?) send him deeper into Tecca’s tangled web of weirdness, broken furniture, and—somehow—modeling scams.Brandon & Chanel break it all down:Flashbacks to Ron & Barb’s big dreams — Jeep tours & breast pumps, anyone?Everpump vs. Everfail — the entrepreneurial crash that may have broken RonChair schematics, hydraulic levers, Hungarian exports, and spreadsheet Pepe Silvia madnessA fake-out cop sting… for a Big Green EggThe legendary “Bahld Harmon” beats Ron for a modeling gig (and Ron’s ego will never recover)Mistaken yearbook drama that makes the HR investigation so much worseRed balls, tuba mascots, and pop-ups from the Red Ball Market GlobalA Jason-masked figure, waving at a camera next to a lone Tecca chair. Yep.It’s True Detective meets I Think You Should Leave in this slow descent into office paranoia and personal failure. Is Ron uncovering a dark pharmaceutical plot? Or is he finally snapping under the weight of suppressed ambition and unresolved trauma?Whatever the truth is — it’s absolutely hilarious, and Brandon & Chanel are here for every unhinged moment.🎧 LISTEN & FOLLOW BRANDON & CHANEL — WE WAS WATCHING PODCAST🎧 Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/4Tx2WCylyV4QUrDQWJOFyb?si=4df72d17cc5d4fae🍎 Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/we-was-watching-podcast/id1640612856📲 Twitter → @WeWasWatching📸 Instagram → @wewaswatching🔔 Subscribe → https://www.youtube.com/@WeWasWatching?sub_confirmation=1#TheChairCompany #TimRobinson #BahldHarmon #RedBallMarket #Everpump #TeccaChairs #WeWasWatching #HBOComedy #ChairConspiracy #ComedyThriller #TVRecap #OpioidChairs #MistakenModeling
