The Morning Show, also known as Morning Wars in Australia and Indonesia,[1][2] is an American drama television series starring Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carell in lead roles that premiered on Apple TV+ on November 1, 2019.[3][4] The series is inspired by Brian Stelter's 2013 book Top of the Morning.[2][5] The show examines the characters and culture behind a network broadcast morning news program. After allegations of sexual misconduct, the male co-anchor of the program is forced off the show. Aspects of the #MeToo movement are examined from multiple perspectives as more information comes out regarding the misconduct. Subsequent seasons focus on other political topics and current events, including the COVID-19 pandemic, racial inequality, the Capitol insurrection, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The second season premiered on September 17, 2021.[6] In January 2022, the series was renewed for a third season,[7] which premiered on September 13, 2023.[8] The series was renewed for a fourth and fifth season ahead of the third-season premiere.

The series has received numerous accolades, including 27 Primetime Emmy Award nominations, ten Screen Actors Guild Award nominations and nine Golden Globe Award nominations.

Jennifer Aniston won a 2020 SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by a Lead Female Actor in a Drama Series and earned nominations for two Primetime Emmy Awards and three Screen Actors Guild Awards for Outstanding Performance by a Lead Female Actor in a Drama Series. Reese Witherspoon has received two nominations for the SAG and Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series; Billy Crudup won the Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series in 2020 and 2024.
