The Morning Show-Apple TV

I posted above that I wasn't feeling this season at all, but episode 3 changed my mind. AMAZING.

I'm sorry to say, I also prefer the eps without Reese W.

I also really liked this episode. I am not a big fan of Bradley as a character and I feel like her storylines tend to feel the most soapy to me (especially all the stuff last season with her brother).

I think the show works best when the personal dramatic issues are closely tied to the professional ones at the network and on the show. I thought the story with Nicole Beharie's character was great and LOVED the scene between her and Holland Taylor was amazingly acted -- loved Holland's perfectly tone deaf responses and all the little micro-expressions on Beharie's face as she reacted. I think that might have come off ham-fisted with lesser actors but they were brilliant.

I also think Aniston has been good this season and I am kind of enjoying this phase of her character, where she feels more free and powerful than she did before. I think it's interesting to see how someone who has always been a very savvy and ambitious professional navigates the post-Covid, post-MeToo, post-BLM world. I think sometimes she surprises with understanding the temperature of things (first advising Cybil not to do the interview, which was smart, and then advising Chris to conduct, which was even smarter), but she also has plenty of moments of rich-white-lady obliviousness too. She's a bit of a wild card but in a believable way.

Still not seeing enough from Stella. Billy Crudup is always good in this role, it feels custom made for him. More Janko please.

Billy Crudup is absolutely perfect in this role. I actually laugh out loud with the way he delivers his lines - slightly manic, always with a smile, but ruthless nonetheless. He is pitch perfect.

I feel like Jennifer’s face looked much better in episode three, as compared to episode one and two.

It’s sort of reminding me of “and just like that” with Kristen Davis… Maybe she had work done and it settled in by episode three? But I also know they film things out of sequence, so who knows. But I definitely felt like she looked more normal in episode three.

It makes me happy whenever he is in a scene because I know it's going to be great.

More Yanko!

I like Yanko but they need to ease up on the guyliner

I loathe Stella. Her voice, her haircut, her clothes, her personality.

I knew the actor who plays Yanko back in the day. It's not guy liner. He just has crazy thick black eyelashes and that's the effect they give.

Those are his actual eyes! https://www.glamour.com/story/is-this-lost-star-wearing-eyel

A long time ago I knew a guy whose eyes were the same way, and they were amazing. He was a news anchor in a small community where I lived. Maybe everyone whose eyes are like that belongs on TV.

He makes a joke about the fact that people think he's wearing eyeliner in one episode (that stupid one where he gets in trouble for the groundhog joke?)

I cannot believe there isn’t any mention of the restaurant scene and Stella’s predicament. IMO that was pretty major.
