It takes a long time to come up with these episodes. We are deeper into the process at this moment than I would like, considering how few episodes we have figured out. But it takes some time, just as it did the first season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He then went on to say this series isn\u2019t like HBO Max\u2019s \u201cThe Pitt\u201d where the show can return with a new season annually, as much as he would like that:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish it would be because it\u2019s an awesome show that\u2019s old-school, like we used to do The X-Files [when] we\u2019d come back the same month every year. It will not be like The Pitt. We\u2019ll come back the same month \u2013 just the question is what year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Due to their mainly single-location and studio set-bound nature, shows like \u201cThe Pitt\u201d and \u201cOnly Murders on the Building\u201d have been able to return on an annual basis, whereas most cable prestige series, especially any with heavy location filming and larger scale, usually have gaps of around two years (or more).<\/p>\n<p>Despite being set primarily around Carol\u2019s house, \u201cPluribus\u201d boasts a lot of location filming, outdoor scenes and large-scale production with plenty of extras for each episode.<\/p>\n<p>The nine-episode first season concluded on Christmas Eve last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple TV \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d creator Vince Gilligan says that those hoping to see a second season of his&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":409052,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[94966,96,391,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-409051","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-bigslider","tag-entertainment","tag-tv","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/409051","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=409051"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/409051\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/409052"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=409051"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=409051"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=409051"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
