Nellie Andreeva for Deadline:

Led by Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon, The Morning Show‘s Season 1 series-regular cast is coming back… That includes Steve Carell, who originally had signed a one-year deal. While his return had not been confirmed, The Morning Show producers had made it clear that they wanted him back and had indicated that they were pursuing a new deal with the actor.

The returning cast also includes Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Bel Powley, Karen Pittman and Desean Terry.

The praised series earned Apple its first Primetime Emmy Award for Crudup in the Supporting Actor in a Drama Series category. The Morning Show received eight Emmy nominations overall, along with three Golden Globe Award nominations. The series also landed a SAG Award for for Aniston and a Critics’ Choice Award for Crudup, along with a Television Critics Association nomination for Outstanding New Program. Globally, the series has been nominated for a TV Choice Award for Best New Drama.

MacDailyNews Take: Good to see Carell will return as there’s certainly much more to mine with his character.

  1. Mileage and tastes vary, but I though the show was pretty mediocre, as I have most of what Apple has offered thus far. I won’t be tuning in again and I won’t be paying for Apple TV+. Still loving Music, and Arcade seems to be finding its feet, but whatever it was that made the Valley think they needed to be involved in the actual production of entertainment is beyond me. Yawn.
