The Morning Show Continues to be an Outrageously Addictive Mess in Soapy Third Season

For a show that started as a MeToo-inspired statement piece about the sexual harassment and abuse of power that is all too common in the entertainment industry , the persistent thought I kept coming back to throughout this season ofHere, of course, being Season 3, which further removes itself from its original premise to tackle tech billionaires, the downward spiral of traditional media, and any other ripped-from-the-headlines events they can manage to squeeze into just 10 episodes .

If the first two seasons were about fighting tooth and nail to make UBA a better place, this season questions if it’s even worth saving.

stand-out Lee is a force here as well. Newcomer Beharie is a wonderful addition, and she truly steals every scene she’s in. And Margulies as Laura remains criminally underutilized . When she isn’t busy progressing various plot points, she’s a magnetic, truly captivating force. In a series where everyone struggles to balance their unimaginable secrets and lies, Laura is refreshingly real and is always a breath of fresh air whenever she makes a welcome appearance.
