Plots(1)
Alex Levy anchors The Morning Show, a popular breakfast show broadcast from Manhattan on the UBA network, which has excellent viewership ratings and is perceived to have changed the face of American television. In the first season, after her on-air partner of 15 years, Mitch Kessler, is fired amidst a sexual misconduct scandal, Alex fights to retain her job as top news anchor while sparking a rivalry with Bradley Jackson, a haphazard field reporter whose series of impulsive decisions brings her into a new world of television journalism.

My rating of the first season would have been higher had it not been for the final episode, which I wasn’t too thrilled about. The creators obviously didn't want to upset the supporters of the MeToo movement. Except for the final let down, I had a great time watching, especially enjoying the performance of Reese Witherspoon and Billy Crudup. Not that the rest of the actors weren't good, but these two made the biggest impression on me. With the exception of the tenth episode, I was able to form my own opinion without the creators trying to force theirs on me, and I liked it that way.
