The second season will be a total of ten episodes and debut Friday, September 17 on Apple TV+ with the first episode. New episodes will then be released weekly, every Friday.
Picking up after the explosive events of season one, season two finds The Morning Show team emerging from the wreckage of Alex (Aniston) and Bradley’s (Witherspoon) actions, to a new UBA and a world in flux, where identity is everything and the chasm between who we present as and who we really are comes into play.
