Critics Consensus

Though The Morning Show at times feels more like a vanity project than the hard-hitting drama it aspires to be, there is pleasure to be had in watching Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon give it their all.

It has no consistency, no singular ambition or particular thing to say.

Glossy and expensive, the series is a giant, faultlessly tasteful gift box filled mostly with packing peanuts.

Even when its execution is sometimes wobbly, you never mistake its ambition. It's pacy, brash and compulsive - which all adds up to something worth sticking around for.

A rare gem that gets smarter, juicier and more sure-footed by the hour.

4.5/5

The Morning Show is a sharp-witted, subversive, and supremely sobering screed against sexual harassment in the workplace, with one of Jennifer Aniston's best performances to date.

Aniston, Carell, Pittman, and Crudup deliver indelible performances in this incisive exploration of sex, power, and privilege in the corporate world. Anchored by a narrative that balances sharp plotting with rich character work, The Morning Show resists easy answers and instead forces its audience to reckon with who is prey, and who is predator.
