The first season of Pluribus is now officially in the spotlight, and the discussions about it have already changed in the very next second! The series, which airs on Apple TV+, has given its viewers quite a few episodes to see and is no longer asking for the nature of the show, but the reception of each episode.

The growing fascination with Pluribus Season 1 is clearly reflected in its steadily rising ratings, as audience feedback begins to pour in and shape the show’s reception.

Nonetheless, the task of ranking the episodes of Season 1 of Pluribus calls for accuracy. There are more than one episode to choose from, and there are also some early ratings, but the conclusion of the season is still ahead, and data about the audience still keeps changing.


Reasons for the Pluribus Season 1 Episode rankings are still evolving

Although Pluribus Season 1 has already premiered, not all episodes have been released yet. With the series rolling out weekly, the current ratings only offer a partial picture of audience engagement. Naturally, the early episodes have accumulated the most votes so far, while the later ones are still awaiting wider viewership and feedback.

This situation causes the rankings of the episodes to change quite a lot from one week to another. Therefore, for Pluribus Season 1, any ranking that has been done before the airing of the finale should be considered temporary, not permanent.


Current status of Pluribus Season 1

Pluribus Season 1 premiered on Apple TV on November 7, 2025. The season consists of nine episodes, with new episodes released every Friday. As of December 2025, seven episodes are currently available. Episode 8 is set to air on December 26, 2025, while the season finale is scheduled for release on January 2, 2026.

The series is produced by Vince Gilligan and stars Rhea Seehorn in the lead role. While Pluribus has not been officially connected to Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul, it shares strong narrative and thematic similarities with Gilligan’s earlier work. Moreover, Apple TV+ has already greenlit a second season, confirming that the story will continue beyond the first season’s finale.


Ranking of Pluribus Season 1 episodes from best to worst (Provisional)

For now, this provisional ranking only reflects the episodes that have already aired. It is expected to evolve as more episodes are released and audience ratings continue to be updated.

From the episodes that are currently available, episode seven has the highest average rating. It was released on 19 December 2025. Only a few words have been given to this particular episode, as it has recently launched. Yet, the reaction of the audience was so massive that this episode made it to the top.

Then comes episode three, which was added on November 21, 2025. This one is ranked second. It has received good ratings and a good number of votes, which symbolize that the audience was still accepting of season episodes that appeared earlier.

Next in line is episode five, which was released on December 5, 2025. The difference between episode three and episode five is so close that it cannot be considered statistically significant.

Then comes episode one, which was available on November 7, 2025. It has the highest number of words, and it was ranked in the middle when the average ratings were being decided.

Episode two, which was paired on November 14, 2025, is only slightly behind the Premier. Moreover, it has the same level of engagement with the audience as the previous one.

Episode six appears lower in the ranking due to a result of low vote count and not because it received a reception considerably different from other episodes. It came out on 12 December 2025 and has its average score comparable to other episodes in the ranks above it.

Currently, episode four, which was added on November 28, 2025, has the lowest rating among all the aired episodes.

Therefore, this is an indication that feedback on this program was relatively consistent.


How to interpret these rankings

The numerical differences in ratings across the episodes of Pluribus Season 1 are minimal, indicating that audience opinions have remained largely consistent throughout the season. To be placed lower does not mean that the episode has been received poorly; it is only an indication of a slight difference in average ratings or volume of votes.

The ranking list is likely to change as the season continues. Thus, these rankings should be considered a current interpretation rather than a conclusive decision.


When Pluribus Season 1 rankings become definitive

It will only be after the last episode is aired on January 2, 2026, that a conclusive ranking of Pluribus Season 1 episodes will be drawn, and when ratings of all nine episodes will be stabilized. Data collected after the season usually provides a fairer comparison.

In the meantime, rankings are not finalized and are open to changes.


Currently, a partial ranking of Pluribus Season 1 is possible through audience data; however, a complete view of this is still not clear. Episodes 8 and 9 of Pluribus Season 1 are not included in this ranking as they have not been released. The audience rating of episodes that have not been addressed is still being determined and may add significantly to a complete ranking.

It is only after the broadcast of the entire series of episodes for Season 1 and public feedback is obtained that one can have a complete and accurate list of the ranking of all episodes of Season 1 from Best to Worst.
