Overall, this season was not as strong as s1 imo. The second half of the season got stronger as it went along though. I thought it was interesting to explore the beginnings of Covid - our naivety, our early misconceptions, the confusion, the optimism, the fear.

Alex Levy should have done her stream in a nice, comfy sweater and less hair/makeup. THAT would have made her relatable, so that was an odd choice. Alex was ALL OVER THE PLACE in this season emotionally, but Aniston makes her entertaining to watch even if you don't always like her.

Stella is awesome in this episode. All season, she's been my least favorite character. So grating and no fun to watch at all. This episode, her abrasiveness was tempered with humor and she had some great LOL lines. The sudden shift in the writing/directing/acting for her had me wonder if the show suddenly realized that audiences weren't responding well to her and so they took a turn for the better. Because THIS is an entertaining character I can get behind. Let's go with Stella 2.0!

Daniel is annoying and so one-dimensional and whiny. I'd be fine if he didn't return for s3 but given the fact that this show follows real world events I think he'll have a good chance of being an even larger character in s3.

Bradley started out so entitled and hard to watch and she came around to a much better place. Corey's confession to her was a great scene.

Pretty good finish overall.

Really enjoyed the series. I mean really! I was mesmerized by Steve Carrell's performance on season 2 especially in the episode La vita amara. I hate today's "cancel culture" and thought that every person has a right to redemption. So to recap: Loved:

• Alex, Mitch, Bradley and of course Cory! Their performance was stellar!

• The italian touch with the exception of the american tourist that bullied Mitch- what a ridiculous act!

• The dimensional edge on each of the lead characters and how they grow through their journey

Hated: -The Side stories of: nagging Daniel, Mia-new boss from hell- totally unlikeable, clown-makeup weather man, Stella -ugh! Unbearable to watch and finally Laura.

• The opening titles: probably the worst design and most annoying opening titles AND song, I have ever watched in a series. Please change them. I skip them but still hate them.

It was amazing episode, Cory confessing to Bradley, that's a moment i waited for since season 1, Cory is so charismatic so handsome, and i love the chemistry between him and Bradley since the first season when he discovered her and their first meeting, there was heat between the two of them . People who are complaining that there was too much COVID in the episode, well , that's normal, what happened that days was really BIG, what the world lived in that days something deserves to be talked about and to be documented, it is history people and we must save history. People after 20 years must known exactly what happened if they are kids now or maybe still not born yet . It's reality too, these kinds of shows must keep up the reality factor, reality is the asset of this show and how can we feel the reality if they just ignored COVID.

Finally i really feel disappointed with people say do not make a third season. If someone doesn't want to watch more of this show that's up to them, but i am sure there are people also love to see more of this, especially that the finale founded a strong base to go in season three, Cory and Bradley, Paola joining the team with Alex and Bradley. So please let us enjoy this.

Cory: It should have been Alex. 😳 That's it. That's the review. Really. Do better. Cory/Bradley = 0 chemistry. What a let down!

Totally unbelievable.

"The Morning Show" has quite devolved from its noteworthy beginnings in the early season 1 episodes. Here in season 2, we have a hodgepodge of mini-subplots: sex predators; drug-addicted brother; scandalous book; lesbian affair; extramarital affair; multiple betrayals; cancel culture; racial issues spanning black, Asian, Native American, Cuban; white male privilege; suicide; giant lawsuit; new streaming service launch; fatal car accident; aspiring documentarian; unrequited love. The show is all over the place. There is a lot going on, yet the majority of these subplots do not come off very interesting, and are all happening with a backdrop that's leading up to the explosion of the pandemic, which is this episode's focus. I still give high marks because the acting here is first class, especially from Reese Witherspoon, Billy Crudup, and that biting speech from Martin Short. Also, the show does manage to make the early onset of the pandemic quite entertaining to watch. No other fictional show so far has given the non-fictional pandemic this kind of play-by-play portrayal, and with a TV series titled "The Morning Show," you expect nothing short of sensationalism, and in that regard, it delivers.

Way too much Alex in the finale. It wasn't all bad but I feel like all of her ranting blog scenes could have been consolidated into a much shorter thing to give other characters a spotlight.

Literally nothing of consequence happened during this finale. I'm not sure why Bradley's brother was such a big storyline this season. Chip risking contracting COVID by visiting Alex was just plain stupid. Seems like the writers are setting this up for a potential love story. This show has jumped the shark. Steve Carrell should feel lucky to have left this mess.

So many people hate the last episode how dare they mention the most important crisis that has happened in the last 100 years, a crisis that has taken 2 years and counting.

I have Asthma, before the vaccine I felt I had a gun to my head, never been so scared to go out the door, but after the vaccine I got my life back, so for me it's something I will never forget.

Had to move our US holiday 4 times, finally got to the US in April, went to New York and it's still a bizarre place, loads of Covid testing places, some shops have to wear a mask some you don't.

In the future there will be loads of films and TV series made about the Covid, this was a decent try to explain using Jen who was superb in this episode Reece was a bit part, but it seems Reece and Jen have been sharing the episodes, They had a brilliant 1st season on the show and managed in the past 5 episodes to get up to these levels of season 1 All the actors were superb, some of the bit part actors played their parts when needed.

It's taken a long time for the 3rd season to be filmed, how can they match season 1 and 2? With no Steve Carell.

Yes, it was pretty much about Jennifer Aniston - oh wait, I mean Alex Levy - telling us her truth about what it's like to be ogled and followed and judged and evaluated by people who don't even know her, and I thought it was awesome. Yes, I agree that she should have done less with hair and makeup, while battling a brutal virus, but the character is on TV every day and it would be natural for her to get dressed up before the broadcast; even so, if she was >that sick<, she shouldn't have looked so good. (Maybe I'm just jealous!). But the content was great, and her range of acting was also great.
