Since there are spoilers in this post I'm going to make this a spoilerific comment

Nah Cory is super nasty to everyone, like that whole power trip where he told the producer that he literally greenlit the money to make a pilot so that she could see how shit her own taste was. He straight up took down Fred so he could take Fred's position and while he hasn't shown him to be a sexual predator (yet! Trust no man!) his motives weren't about cleaning house but about gaining power

The morning show sounds like apples version of the today show? I don’t have Apple TV so for those who have watch it did it feel like u were watching the today show?

[marthasback]

i actually enjoyed this show, everyone did a great acting job, steve carrell being the stand out for me. especially since it's so obviously based on matt lauer. but hannah dying in the finale is bullshit and unnecessary. that's just bad writing

[ms_mmelissa]

I've heard so many people bash Carrell but I think he's so perfect as Mitch. Like he is the perfect blend of cheesy, charming and creepy as fuck.

exactly like Charlie Rose.

First of all, having not checked for this show in the slightest, I had no idea Gugu was in it. Second, the AUDACITY 😡👏🏽

even before the twist with hannah the episode was unwatchable. this show tries so hard to be something aaron sorkin would write and legit has to give every character some big monologue that isnt really necessary.

there was multiple instances where it looked like it was going to have potential and then they squandered it away. it even looked like the second season was gonna give it a nice new status quo too but it looks like they arent letting any of this go just yet. sad.
