Rhea Seehorn Wins Her First Golden Globe for Pluribus

-

At the 83rd Annual Golden Globe Awards on January 11, 2026, Rhea Seehorn earned a milestone victory in her career, winning Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series – Drama for her role in the Apple TV+ science-fiction drama Pluribus. This marks Seehorn’s first Golden Globe nomination and win — a long-awaited moment for fans and critics alike. 

Seehorn stars as Carol Sturka, a romance author turned reluctant hero confronting an alien virus that has altered humanity. Created by Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul architect Vince Gilligan, the series has rapidly resonated with audiences and critics, and Seehorn’s performance has been singled out as one of its greatest strengths. 

A Heartfelt and Humorous Acceptance

Taking the stage with warmth and candor, Seehorn joked about her nerves — quipping that her prepared speech note read “get a prescription for beta-blockers,” though she admitted she hadn’t actually gotten one. Her humor and vulnerability endeared her to the audience and viewers worldwide. 

She thanked her fellow nominees — including Kathy Bates, Helen Mirren, Bella Ramsey, Keri Russell, and Britt Lower — expressing admiration for their work and acknowledging the strength of the field she competed against. 

Gratitude for Pluribus and Collaborators

In a major moment of her speech, Seehorn thanked Pluribus creator Vince Gilligan for writing the role specifically for her. She described it as “the role of a lifetime,” praising Gilligan’s belief in her and noting how much it pushed her to grow as an actor. She also extended thanks to the show’s cast, crew, her family, and Apple TV. 

A Win Years in the Making

Seehorn’s Golden Globe is seen as not just a celebration of her work on Pluribus but also overdue recognition for a career filled with strong performances — most notably as Kim Wexler on Better Call Saul, where she became a fan favorite despite never securing major awards during the show’s run. 
Decider

Though Pluribus itself did not win Best Drama Series — losing to The Pitt — Seehorn’s individual triumph stood out as one of the night’s most exciting and widely shared moments.

A major international retail player is turning heads in South Africa — and local shoppers are about to benefit. Walmart, the US-based retail giant, is accelerating its expansion in South Africa with plans to open 21 new stores across Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape. This growth builds on Walmart’s earlier successful launches in Clearwater and Fourways and follows the recent opening of its third store in Boksburg.  The chain promises customers everyday low prices on groceries, fresh food, household items and entertainment products — positioning itself as a competitive alternative to established players like Checkers, Pick n Pay and Spar, which often rely on promotional deals to attract shoppers.  What’s especially noteworthy is Walmart’s push into rapid online delivery through its local app, offering 60-minute express service now extended to an 8 km radius from its stores.  With a focus on affordability and convenience, Walmart is charting an ambiti...
