This is one fun – and sometimes bonkers — show. Read full review

Far from suffering difficult-second-series syndrome, the new run of this massively fun takedown of seething rivalries in the American TV business is even more ambitious and edgy than the first. Read full review

It takes some soapy turns in season two, and Carell’s character can seem stranded in limbo, but this is big starry television about big starry television that dares you to look away. Tune in. Read full review

None of it feels real. Without the storyline that gave The Morning Show all its power and nuance, we are left with the old luxury fluff, reacquainting ourselves with characters who aren’t substantial enough to merely hang out with. ... This is a drama that demands we take it seriously – it needs to earn that right anew. Read full review

The show continues to have the vibe of a network drama that would have been controversial in, say, 2003. The things The Morning Show thinks it is being groundbreaking about aren’t groundbreaking at all. It just has a very false sense of self-importance. Read full review

Ultimately “The Morning Show” suffers from haphazard storytelling and an emphasis on the least compelling corners of this show-bizzy side of TV news. Read full review

Inkoo Kang

Sep 17, 2021

The 10-episode second season just doubles down on the failures of its precursor without the compensatory empathy for or interest in victims. ... Those who missed the preachy sanctimony of HBO’s “The Newsroom” will find much of it recycled here. Read full review

Still strikingly entertaining. Aniston and Crudup are giving two of the best performances on television.

Painful season of television. The writers on this show should have just left Covid alone to save us from such a ridiculous and tone-deaf depiction of a devastating event in human history.

Painfully over dramatic, continuing to fail to live up to the promise of the earlier episodes of the first season.

Clearly they rewrote season 2 so they could shove more covid and political baloney. I’m more interested to see what the original script was for season 2. This was just plain terrible not a fan.
