The Morning Show, Season 1: I actually watched the first episode of this way back in early 2020, the last time I left state (for my friend A's baby shower in Boston) -- we were looking for something to watch and decided to try this out. I might have kept going, but we didn't have Apple+ at the time and it wasn't worth getting it just for that. But our weekly TV night group watched the first season awhile ago and are planning to continue with the second as soon as it drops, so T and I decided to catch up. We binged the last four episodes of season one tonight, and boy was that a lot. ( Spoilers, also CW for sexual assault and drug overdose )

From the preview, it looks like the next season will deal largely with race, definitely an issue that came into play in the first season but never took the spotlight. That could be excellent or it could be a trainwreck. I guess we'll have to see.
