The Morning Show

First of all The Morning Show has one of the best overall casts of any show on tv. Just to name some of the actors in this are Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Steve Carell, Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, etc. With a cast like that you just know the show is worth watching. The first season is the best but the second is still pretty good. It's one of the rare shows where each episode gets better and leaves you wanting more. It's a fast paced show that you'll want to binge watch as quickly as you can. Season three is coming out later this year and I'm looking forward to watching it.

Season 1 had a good, interesting, story line, that grabbed you from the beginning. Kept you watching esp in anticipation on what will happen in the rivalry between the 2 female leads. But they suddenly coming together in end in that show of woman solidarity was more depressing cop out, enough to drop the season from a 9 to an 8.

Unfortunately, it seems they had no idea of what follow up story to tell in season 2, other than just showing a bunch of rich media people being ambitious, competitive, nasty, and neurotic. The Witherspoon character's particularly irritating, and she's spent half the season shouting at people. Crudup is best, he's held the series together. And the Carrel character's an interesting watch. As the guy who's fell off the mountain top...and, alas, has to console himself with the millions he's made. (And Carrel even has a resemblance to Matt Lauer)

I would rate season 1 an 8. It tackles a lot of social issues while still remaining entertaining and still doesn't get too preachy.

I would rate season 2 a 5 at best. It is boring and attempts to include so many issues that it becomes a woke nightmare. Stop after season 1 if you aren't on board the woke train.

The show is amazing, but wow, what a remarkable performance by Billy Crudup. He totally kills it! I love his character, so funny. We need more of him! Great work! Of course, the rest of the cast is also amazing! Great job everyone!

My girlfriend and I were discussing this and we've come to this conclusion. Overall, there were a couple episodes that were top-tier, would rate them in the high 9s. They were thought-provoking (mainly season 1), great cinematography, great acting, great score (esp season 3). But the other episodes would fall around a six or seven which is pretty solid. However the hour long run-time on those meh episodes just made it feel like it was dragging on for the majority of the episode just to reveal some big cliffhanger at the end (this is my gf's opinion not mine, i thought it built suspense nicely). So rounds out at a weak eight overall. Season one was the best, then three, then two.
