I blew through the first three episodes. The character development is setting the bar high. Then the script is following suit. Amazing raw take on some very controversial issues. Thank God it's done properly. I had very high expectations for episode 4. It was a make or break for the show, and it did not disappoint. I cannot wait for the next episode.

The series is obvioulsy not perfect and has some writing issues (the abortion thing could have been done a kit better) but I think the bar is too high. Some people commented here that it stopped showing both sides of the me too case but I felt the opposite. It was an affair between people working together, she liked him, she just didn't like what that represented. I think it's meant to be ambiguous and to make you think: did he really is the only one to blame. Is there anyone to blame on national tv, outside his marriage? I guess it's on purpose too that Carrel doesnt show up but he will soon.

The show has so many hot topics: stars middle life crisis, media capitalism, filtered reality, Twitter dictatorship, american dream goes wrong and keeps going. I have a feeling they will keep on track.

This show felt the most believable and felt like it was the most "real" episode yet. We saw them tackle the #MeToo movement in a way that was not cartoonish and touched on the very real pain felt by women for too long.

This show is starting to get good, but it still has a long way to go.

Let me start by saying that I really enjoyed the first three episodes. It was interesting, fun to watch, held my attention, there was something going on. However, all that was missing from this third episode and I'm afraid that's the direction this show is heading at.

What was good about it was the fact that they showed both sides of the story. By cutting Steve Carrell out of this episode shows you that they had no intention of showing both sides but rather villainize the other.

I understand that the main goal of this show is to tackle all the cultural events happening in the past few years. But did they really have to include all of it in just 3-4 episodes? Metoo movement, protests, now abortion in this episode? What's next? Are we about to find out that Bradley Jackson is a transgender in the next one?

Also, this idea of this rogue tv host who's super crazy and will do anything its just lazy writing. It was fine once. But if it keeps happening two or three times per episode it's just gonna get boring.

And finally this scene where she interviews the "victim" and builds so much intensity and drama. I just didn't get it. I guess you're supposed to feel sorry for her? But her story made it perfectly clear that nobody forced her into anything and she really made her own decisions. Yet, this moment was supposed to be the one where we realize that Steve Carell's character is actually a horrible human being and we should hate him. It just didn't work for me.

Honestly I'm hugely disappointed what this episode had to show. I really hope this is not the direction the show is taking. The only reason I started (and will probably continue) watching the show is because of Reece, Jen and Steve. I feel like that cast can make a show literally about anything and still make it good. I just hope it changes direction soon.

Favorite scene with

Alex (Jennifer Aniston) - Telling Bradley what she's going to do to make everything right on her second day.

Bradley (Reese Witherspoon) - Her Interview with Ashley Brown, and asking Alex if she knew.

"The Morning Show " my personal opinion fan review. What distracts me with Jen An as an actress was her low tone alto voice, so this is really her now, and her latest copyright 2014 chunky face. The genre was drama, but with Jen An on the show, I couldn't take Alex Levy (Jen's character) seriously. Why? Funny for me is when the actress was playing a role with overconfidence in her current position, when in fact, people around her see her fall short of her character example being a host that makes her funny. Jen was splendid in her comedic timing though she was ruder, more aggressive, and violent in her performance for her indoor dramatic personality. But I realize later on after watching 3rd repeat of Episode 1,2, 3, and 4 Season I, that what she did justify what was needed to define her character as crazy. While Reese W for me was a better actress with seamless, refined with consistency in her role-playing. No wonder she was an Oscar winner. Jen An shines once again on Episode 3. For me, Episode 3 is my fave episode as director David Frankel's work. Jen An was so funny to me when she said that, "I OWN AMERICA..." Who was funnier? Both Jen An and Reese are funny, each has a respective highlights in the show. Jen An is funny on her facial expressions and body movements while Reese is funny when she speak those clever funny lines of the script, she is like the 1.5 times of 'Monica Geller' strong character that Jen An's character had to contend with. For me, Season I: Episode 1 is 8.5 out of 10; Episode 2 is 9 out of 10; Episode 3 is 10 out of 10 Episode 4 is 9 out of 10. I can live without Netflix without Friends, so I am subscribing to Apple TV plus because further episode of The Morning Show is something I am going to enjoy in the future. I like Alex and Chip's chemistry as working mates. If they will not put Jen An in an Apple TV plus show, I will stop subscribing. Don't worry, TMS must go on because I know Jen An had a wholesome enjoyable show with millions of followers around the world even if TMS isn't star-studded cast. If only 8 million follow Jen, Apple could sell them with worth 500 USD cellphone each, the company could gross 4 billion USD or an estimated profit of 1 billion. 20 episodes of TMS are only worth 340 million USD. TMS is a long feature film commercial of Apple products like iPhones and Mac just like Friends promote Calvin Klein in the TV sitcom. Plus a monthly subscription of Jen's 8 million followers to Apple TV plus could bring 39,920,000 USD gross income every month. While another 8 million followers of Reese will subscribe to Apple TV plus, so a projected of less than 80 million USD a month gross income. The cost of TMS might be 68 million USD a month for four episodes, so there is a monthly net profit of more of less 10 million USD from subscribers alone. Jen An and Reese have solid followers around the globe, Apple value their worth among actresses and producers who could deliver high-quality software. They just did, their props and costumes were high-end expensive so close to a real world. TMS makes a reality TV fictitious and very funny coz of Rachel and Jill Green chemistry. TMS makes a Saturday Night Live show dramatic. They make an Oprah Show a fake reality. TMS could do anything under the sun, from weather reporting, cooking, and dancing to singing a fake reality TV show. Therefore it was the most amazing show to watch. Apple TV is a must because the most fun Jen's friends will soon appear on the show, rest assured you will laugh your heart out in awe.

That last line did you knew ? was so out of context that it shot the episode down the sink. The facial expressions, the last scene lacks the word integrity.

That story in Vegas didn't sound like rape. She went to a guys hotel room on her own. I no way should anyone feel sorry for her. I'm really disappointed that this show is going to make Mitch into a monster

The drama on so many levels is intriguing. But the tension of that interview, the way it just blew up the "culture" facade, and captured the essence of sexual abuse, and also the growing fear in Alex that she might be losing control! I'm just on the edge of my seat holding my breath watching this.
