I was very surprised that this drama scored 8.6 points. The plot of the first seven episodes made me wander wildly on the verge of abandoning the drama. Although the main tone of the whole drama is set in the editing room, the main theme of the story is still on workplace harassment . Compared to The Newsroom , the news content of The Morning Show is like a puzzle drama, you can get more happiness without delving into the content of the news. To the public, news means truth and objectivity. The Morning Show is a regular source of information in the United States, but it hides the most unknown scandals.
The most popular CP host in the United States, Mitch , was exposed to workplace harassment against female employees. The TV station immediately fired Mitch in order to preserve his reputation . At this time, it just happened that Bradley was fired from the company for his drastic remarks, but the drastic remarks were liked by netizens, so in order to make up for the negativity caused by Mitch , the TV station decided to hire a female host to restore his reputation.
When a stone is thrown into the water, the water never returns to calm. For fifteen years, did Mitch really hide so well that no one found out? Or is it a secret rule for the TV people? In the early stage , as Mitch 's partner , Alex was also in a lot of trouble . All the blame was directed at her. Everyone was angry .
So the more calm Alex needs to be at this moment , she knows too much how difficult it is for her to get all this. She wanted to show off her skills in hosting, but the audience felt that Alex was too successful and aggressive, and the support rate dropped. Alex can only be a happy vase, don't do anything to make the audience hate, just keep smiling.
Mitch is very different, even yelling at his PR and legal team. "I just slept with a few assistants and interns. Why did they make such a big deal." "These people really benefited from me, and I helped them climb to a higher position."
As a rock, Bradley is also very uneasy. He doesn't know what to do, so he might as well do what he is best at - mining news. With a keen sense of smell, Bradley found that there are hidden secrets about the harassment in the TV station, and various interests are conveyed. According to the description of the parties, there must be many people who know about it, but no one is willing to stand up. In the mid-term, Alex had various abnormal behaviors because of worry. He was afraid that things would get out of control. He kept asking Mitch to meet, and kept telling Mitch that he was very sympathetic to his experience and would try to make up for him. Because Alex knows very well that if the truth comes out to the public, everything she has will be taken away from her.
The husband who has been separated for a long time can no longer bear Alex 's dictatorship. He gave Alex an ultimatum to ask for a divorce. The daughter also attributed all the problems to Alex . If you hadn't been so focused on work, maybe our family could... Alex collapsed, disintegrating one People always start from the inside, and Alex 's last line of defense is broken.
At the same time, Mitch started his own revenge plan. He confessed to his actions, but he never felt that there was any problem with this matter. Obviously these assistants and interns got job promotions here. You can turn your face away. Mitch began to contact the staff he thought he had "helped" before, hoping that they would stand up for him to endorse his trust and reveal the lies behind the TV station together.
At this stage, Bradley was confused. On the one hand, Alex showed weakness to himself, and on the other hand, Mitch threatened to have evidence in his hand. Bradley just wanted a simple truth. But the truth is never simple.
Late Episode 8 is the finishing touch to the whole story, looking at the past from a third-party perspective. Hannah is a guest liaison who just joined the job. There are too many powerful roles on TV. She is too unremarkable, so when she found that Mitch noticed her work, Hannah was very happy and felt that her work was recognized again. .
When the screen turned to Mitch , we learned that Mitch 's last extramarital female employee had just broken up with him. He fell into the so-called " extramarital breakup sequelae " and urgently needed to find another young and beautiful girl to distract him. Just happened to Hannah appeared. In this episode, Mitch used his power to demote his "ex-extramarital girlfriend" to Alex 's team. He doesn't care what Alex thinks. After all, he is the pillar, and many advertisements exist because of him. That's what he said Every word will be holy. Alex resisted, so much so that the producers had to remind Alex not to forget who you depend on for everything you own.
So when Mitch took Hannah to the accident scene, gave her comfort and support, and finally started to attack her, Hannah had no ability to resist, what else could he do but accept it? She had seen Mitch 's so-called rights. Silence does not mean approval. When Hannah came back to her senses and found out that she had been violated and went to report to the TV station executives, the executives kept comforting her and persuading her, and gave her a promotion and a raise.
In the end , Alex was planning to tear up his face with Mitch and Bradley to fight to the end. When the news of Hannah 's suicide spread to the TV station, Alex realized the seriousness of the problem. Not everyone has the same tough shell as she does to survive Mitch 's assault. She decided to team up with Bradley to make everything public on " The Morning Show ", as a newsmaker, to really report a real news event. At this point, the global end.
Of course if you look at the plot of the story, there are a lot of things that are not handled very well, there is no tension in the news content, and if Bradley was added to the team as a catfish effect, her only goal seems to be to kill all the sardines . A new anchor can actually disregard the life and death of the entire team, instill his own values in the live broadcasts, and continue to be appreciated by the TV station person in charge. Is this person in charge really not an undercover agent sent by the enemy? It's true to push down the old bad ethos, but the behavior in the show looks more like an indiscriminate attack on everyone in the entire TV station.
There is also another pair of office romances in the play, the weather forecast anchor and the female assistant. At first, both of them thought it was an equal relationship, but they couldn't stand any scrutiny and exposure. forced. There are many story lines in the front, and the unfolding will be a bit slow. The breaking points of the last three episodes are not to be missed. At present, the episodes have been updated, and everyone can enjoy it with peace of mind.
