In The Morning Show Jennifer stars as Alex Levy who is the anchor of the namesake morning news program. 

The program centers on the anchor after her longtime co-host Mitch Kessler (Steve Carell) is fired after allegations of sexual misconduct and she begins to fight back at network execs to keep her job and set a new path for her career. 

Reese plays Bradley Jackson, a young journalist who is a harsh critic of Alex’s show and is seen as her successor. 

Billy Crudup and Mark Duplass also star in the show as a network exec and the executive producer, respectively.

While Crudup, Carell, and other big name stars were absent from the premiere, some of the show’s more minor characters were sure to come out. 

Bel Powely looked classic in a white and blue tulle gown, with a high neck and puffed sleeves. She plays production assistant Claire Canway.  

Janina Gavankar, who plays Alison Namazi, stunned in a black lace gown with a high neckline. There were cutouts on both sides of her abdomen and most of the dress was sheer around the lace, peaking at her under garments. 

Other stars including Emmy Rossum, Mindy Kaling, Naomi Watts and Wendy Williams came out to support the premiere. 

The show seems to be a big hit among news media as well as George Stephanopoulos, Gayle King and Elaine Welteroth in attendance, among others.

Each episode of the show cost $15 million to make, according to The Hollywood Reporter, and has already been green lit for a second season, for a two season total of $300 million.  

Viewers will get the first three episodes on Friday before releasing episodes weekly, exclusively on AppleTV+, also launching on Friday for $4.99 a month. 

Critics were given a sneak peak of the show’s first three episodes, and by Monday morning it had a Metacritic score of 60 and a 71 on Rotten Tomatoes. 

The reviews were consistent in critiquing the show, finding the first and second episodes bland and the third being when it begins to pick up pace and change what was established in the first two.

The stars were praised for their performances, with Entertainment Weekly’s Kristen Baldwin saying Aniston ‘”gives a forceful performance,’ and IGN’s Rosie Knight said that Witherspoon ‘is easily the highlight of the show, adding righteous anger to a morally compromised reporter.’  

Much of the criticism was aimed at the writing and creative direction of the show, which Aniston and Witherspoon executive produce.

From THR critic Daniel Feinberg said the show seemed to be ‘struggling and floundering to find its focus, tone and attitude toward its main characters,’ but that by the end of the third episode it becomes ‘more satisfying and confident.’  

Feinberg wrote ‘the third episode points to a series in which Aniston, Witherspoon and Crudup could make this backdrop fun to watch. But for what is allegedly one of the most expensive shows in TV history, and for what is certainly a pivotal show in the burgeoning Streaming Wars, one out of three isn’t good enough for a recommendation yet.’

Ben Travers from IndieWire said it trusts its story without knowing what it’s trying to say. All the pretty people in the world can’t keep you hooked when the purpose is this muddled.’

While Paste’s Amy Amatangelo was more mild in saying ‘is perfectly fine, but not exactly what one would hope for when discussing the crown jewel of the streaming launch…You need more than fine. You need to break the mold.’

The show tackles the topical #MeToo movement in the world of morning news casts that as of last week are still grappling with accusations against anchors from Matt Lauer to Charlie Rose.
