Gilligan then followed that up with the "Better Call Saul" prequel series, which follows sleazy lawyer Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk." The prequel followed in its predecessor's footsteps and was nominated for 53 Emmys.
Now, Gilligan is back with his next series, which brings in a star from the "Better Call Saul" series, Rhea Seehorn. Seehorn portrayed Kim Wexler in the "Breaking Bad" prequel and instantly became a fan-favorite.
Tony Dalton, Michael Mando, Rhea Seehorn, Peter Gould, Vince Gilligan, Patrick Fabian arrive for the Premiere Of AMC's "Better Call Saul" Season 5 held at ArcLight Cinemas on February 5, 2020 in Hollywood, California.

Seehorn returns to star in Gilligan's latest series, "Pluribus," which has finally dropped a teaser.
Seehorn is shown walking through the teaser, as a message is emblazoned across the screen.
The message states:
"Hello, Carol. We'll put things right. Sorry about the blood."
There is also a phone number displayed on screen that reads:
"(202) 808-3981."
Seehorn could be playing Carol, but that has not yet been confirmed or established. It would be believed that is the case, considering the mention of blood, and Seehorn's character walking with blood on her shirt.
The IMDb synopsis for the series states:
"Follows the most miserable person on Earth and the one who must save the world from happiness."
Not much else is known about the new Gilligan series, but the series will debut officially on AppleTV+ on November 7.
The streamer might also release a full-length trailer in the coming days and weeks. For now, fans can start speculating on what the series may entail.
One thing is for sure: Gilligan continues to make incredible stories, and "Pluribus" might just be his third consecutive homerun.

White House Claps Back at Jack White: 'Washed Up, Has-Been Loser'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The White House has hit back at musician Jack White following his criticism of President Donald Trump's redesign of the Oval Office. On Monday, the former front man of The White Stripes described the office as a "vulgar, gold leafed and gaudy, professional wrestler's dressing room," and an "embarrassment to American history." Trump revamped the office in March with gold trim, large frames, gilded mirrors, gold eagles and Trump-branded accessories. Responding to White's comments, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung told The Daily Beast: "Jack White is a washed up, has-been loser posting drivel on social media because he clearly has ample time on his hands due to his stalled career." He added: "It's apparent he's been masquerading as a real artist, because he fails to appreciate, and quite frankly disrespects, the splendor and significance of the Oval Office inside of 'The People's House.'"

Golden Retriever Digs Hole in Backyard, Owners Unprepared for His Reaction
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A puppy's nonchalant reaction to digging up the entire backyard has left internet viewers in hysterics. The owner, who uses the social-media tag @ from Staffordshire, in the U.K., shared footage of the destroyed garden before panning to the mischievous golden retriever, lying flat on his back asleep. The video has since garnered over 44,500 likes and almost 300,000 views. "My puppy after digging a giant hole and ruining the garden," the poster wrote as the text overlaying the clip of the mess. "All in a days work for Bear," they captioned the post. The video shows grass and dirt dug up and scattered, while Bear rests inside, blissfully unaware of the extent of the upheaval. The owner added that he was only at it from 10 to 10:05 a.m., highlighting his destructive digging capabilities. U.K. shelter Battersea Dogs & Cats Home says that digging is a normal behavior for dogs, but it can quickly become a nuisance in the garden. They recommend ensuring your pup gets plenty of exercise and mental stimulation to curb the habit. Providing toys, setting aside a specific digging area, and rewarding good behavior can also help redirect their energy. Golden retrievers, in particular, are known for their playful and inquisitive nature, which can make them prone to digging. Wag! experts say that retrievers may dig out of boredom, to seek comfort, or even as a way of exploring scents and sounds underground. For some, the behavior is simply an instinctive outlet for their high energy. Stock image: A golden retriever puppy digs in the dirt. Stock image: A golden retriever puppy digs in the dirt. Kinek00/iStock / Getty Images Plus TikTok users were quick to flood the comments with laughter and solidarity over Bear's antics. "I think that hole dug itself and the puppy is innocent," posted one user. "Why are they like this hahaha?" asked Marie. "I have one who has been quietly digging a grave. It's in a shady corner behind stuff and I hadn't noticed until the debris was flicked far enough to be seen. Enormous," commented Daf. "How respectful of him to not bring any mud in house though," added another user. "Surprisingly clean afterward … Good boy," added Nic. "He feels so guilty he fell into a coma," wrote one viewer. "That was a hard days work!!" posted another user. Newsweek reached out to @ for comment via TikTok. We could not verify the details of the case.

Internet Obsessed with Dog's Unusual Swimming Technique: 'No Notes'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Internet users can't get enough of a dog's unusual attempt at swimming, with some even touting him for Olympic glory one day. In a now viral TikTok post, user @oiuhoma shared a hilarious video of Gus eagerly running into the water for a swim. Once he actually reached the water, however, that's when all his natural sporting ability and prowess was forgotten. Rather than paddling through the water like most dogs, Gus instead chose to do his very own, rather unique, type of swimming. Indeed, he lay on the ground and used his back legs to shuffle along, while his front paws pretended to paddle. It may not serve him well in deeper water, but Gus certainly seemed to enjoy his little swim in Otter Cove at Acadia National Park in Maine. A stock image of a dog splashing around in water.

The clip has gone viral with over 2.5 million views and more than 415,200 likes at the time of writing. After paddling along the ground, the TikTok video then shows Gus leaping around in the water and making plenty of splashes. While some dog breeds were born to swim and had working roles that required them to dive into the water without hesitation, not all breeds are natural swimmers. The American Kennel Club (AKC) highlights that Labrador Retrievers, Portuguese Water Dogs, and Irish Water Spaniels all love the water and they have the physical structures to make them excellent swimmers. Contrastingly, short-legged breeds or long-bodied dogs can struggle in the water due to their disproportionate size. Not every dog will be the Michael Phelps of the canine world (sorry, Gus), so the AKC suggests that a life vest and swimming lessons can ensure that they can at least get around safely in the water. Teaching them how to swim can be done in a pool, a lake, or the ocean. But owners should be vigilant and always start in shallow water while remaining close to the dog. Encourage gradual movement and use plenty of praise to show them that the water isn't so bad. If the dog seems overwhelmed at any point, moving to shallow water or dry land is recommended to give them time to calm back down. Water safety is a priority, even if they're adept swimmers. Owners should always check the water temperature to ensure it's not too cold, be sure it's safe to swim in, and to check for any critters that might be swimming around too. The TikTok video of Gus has generated over 6,000 comments since it went viral, with many social media users lauding his unusual technique. One comment reads: "Michael Phelps has been real quiet since this was posted." Another TikTok user wrote: "God forbid a guy play mermaids." Another person joked: "No notes on the technique." While one commenter added: "Gus is an Olympian in our hearts." Newsweek has contacted @oiuhoma via TikTok for comment. We could not verify the details of the video.
