It's funny to see all the whinging in the reviews about a show based on news and current events of the time 2020, as America was steeped in political deception. This episode was on point for what they wanted to address. People were becoming more "woke". The Bradley character was depicted in a way to represent how people with her background are treated in these situations. The fact that conservatives post "it is ruining the show for them" only shows how fragile they truly are. Rather than letting it 'ruin' you, perhaps you could reconsider your perspective? Consider diversity is making the world better and part of what this show is wanting to impress upon the viewers.

The dynamic of Cory acting out of revenge by allowing the exposure of Bradley's assignations was a believable point and ironically showed him to be the true "privileged white guy" expecting do get everything he wants (Bradley) not the character who was accused of being privileged...

The truly disappointing thing with this episode was the complete absence of Alex. I can only imagine Aniston had another obligation at the time. I literally lowered my rating due to this as it will slow the telling of Alex's struggles.

I do feel this series would be best watched binge-style to grasp the subtleties.

An underwhelming episode here. Bradley and her brother's fight just felt forced and it felt like they tried to make an Emmy moment when the acting wasn't there nor the story.

This episode was fantastic. Reese Witherspoon moved me to tears multiple times. As a gay man, I sympathized so deeply with her experience of being forcibly outed at a time when she wasn't ready and facing the complexities of how her family would respond. My heart broke for her, but wow, what an incredible arc this character is going through. I can't wait to see what the writers do next. Reese is firing on all cylinders, and Julianna Marguiles really serves as a fantastic addition to this season.

I continue to love how this series plays with morality and asks the viewers to make their own judgements about who to trust or who to root for. What Cory did was not okay, but you can see how much it hurt him. I'm still deciding myself how to feel about that guy, but Billy Crudup brings such nuance to his portrayal that I really can never look away when's he on screen. Stella, Mia, and Yanko's storylines are equally as fascinating to me and I admire the show for not being afraid to address extremely messy topics that we, in real life, are still figuring out how to deal with the right way.

I adore Jennifer Anniston in this show, but strangely, her absent did not leave me wanting in this episode. It just goes to show how incredibly strong the entire ensemble of the The Morning Show is.

To those of you complaining the show is too "woke," do you know what show you're watching? This began as a show challenging sexual harassment and toxic workplace environments. Of course the writers would continue to address other social issues and other forms of oppression, and any viewer too sensitive to deal with the fact that sexism, racism, and homophobia are still rampant issues in our world today is too blinded by their own privilege to see the startling reality surrounding them. Educate yourselves, or stay mad. Just let the rest of us enjoy this excellent and timely piece of art.

It's the best episode of the show so far. Why? Bizarrely it wasn't constrained by its biggest star, Jennifer Aniston. Her storyline so far this season has been strangely uninteresting and her acting has been actually poor. So. Step forward Reese Witherspoon to save the day with a truly spectacular performance in this episode. She finally admits she's in love with Laura and it takes the actions of Billy Crudup's character and her brother to force her to admit it . A tour de force ms Witherspoon .

Favorite scene with

Bradley Jackson (Reese Witherspoon) - Her Argument with her Brother and then discussing both him and Laura with Cory and telling him (Cory) that she wants her (Laura).

Her acting here is amazing. Even though I'm not loving this season (especially Laura's character, who is super forced), this episode about Bradley actually worked. I liked her scenes with Cory and her brother in the hotel... It's important we have some more background on her. I really like her character.

Would have given it 1 star but for appearance by Dave Foley. Sure do miss "Newsradio". Sigh.

This episode confirms that I'm done with Season 2. The writing is nothing but more contrived drama around identity politics. Two groups will love it: far left who will lap up the party line wokeness and the far right who will be screaming at their TV for the same reason. Everyone in the middle will just be bored.

This show LOST its sense of direction after season 1. I keep sticking through each episode in hopes that some of the redeeming storylines will carry me through, but it's so difficult. The show itself - with how dramatic the end of season 1 was, feels like they needed to TOP that in season 2. Instead of having a solid build up of drama and suspense, they've written each character angry and depressed and make new problems to randomly just pop up.

I feel like Yanko when I'm watching these. What's next? What kind of problem are you going to fabricate and throw at me!? Can Daniel pick a lane to be upset in? He had a strong opinion on Covid 19 until it wasn't convenient anymore and then he had to switch lanes to accusing people of being racist. Then, on this episode, he's.....angry for a second and then fine!?

Cory has lost full control NOT because these problems are hard, but because there's so many of them and they're all mostly dumb rich people issues. Are we not able to stick with one major political or social issue without making it so dramatically about "me me me me". Bradly used to stand up for these types of problems and now she's crying in her dressing room every chance she gets.

Only thing giving this episode a 2 instead of a 1 is the actual familial spat she has with her brother about addiction/ abusive parents/ moving on/ self care.

I'm getting really tired of this show. I really wanted to like it with Jennifer and Reese but it's so much political propaganda it's getting disappointing.. especially with that lady I don't know her name who is Alex's coworker who's watching over her house treating Chip that way. Why is it okay to treat white men that way when they haven't done anything. He is a nice guy and to make it okay to act like that is not okay and then the whole thing with Bailey and her brother another thing that's super annoying like we're supposed to be okay with someone just sleeping with everybody in town . I'm definitely giving the morning show a four overall so far.
