I've been watching #Pluribus. It is *gorgeous* and mostly entertaining.

But *so* frustrating that the protagonist doesn't even bother asking the most basic of questions about the rules of the world.

I get that they don't want to make "Exposition! The Show! but there's a fine line between exploiting the curiosity gap and drifting off into Lost levels of lazy storytelling.

I guess I want to see the version written by John Scalzi or Andy Weir.

That said, the third episode does the exposition thing in the most boring way possible - literally having two characters sit down and talk to each other.
