Apple Shares Teaser for Upcoming 'The Morning Show' Drama Coming to Apple TV+ This Fall

Monday August 12, 2019 7:31 am PDT by Joe Rossignol
Apple today shared a one-minute teaser trailer for its upcoming "The Morning Show" drama show starring Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carell. The series will debut this fall on Apple TV+.


"The Morning Show," as its name suggests, will take a look inside the lives of the people who help America wake up in the morning.
The news is only half the story.

The Morning Show stars Academy Award-winner Reese Witherspoon, Emmy Award-winner Jennifer Aniston and Emmy Award-winner Steve Carell in a high-stakes drama that pulls back the curtain on early morning TV.
Apple has also created Twitter and Instagram accounts for "The Morning Show."

Apple TV+ is Apple's upcoming streaming video service that will compete with Netflix on original content, with dozens of TV shows and movies already lined up. Apple TV+ will be available this fall on the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and select smart TVs from brands like Samsung.

Always a good sign if the comment section is locked


Apple's videos almost always have comments locked. They likely don't want to play in the cesspool that is all over places like Twitter and YouTube comment sections, and yet somehow they haven't gone out of business.

This looks pretty awful. Don’t mind the actors but a news drama?

It’s beyond belief that Apple won’t release the price for the streaming service as Disney Plus is about to launch

Odd choice. I can't see how it can avoid being political for given current writing practices and trends.

Seems destined for controversy … how long before character X has an issue with topic Y and stands their ground against archetype Z?

I think the Apple credit card will be a success and iTunes as a content distribution platform was a success, but original entertainment content creation is not that easy … I'm 50/50 on this one.

Apple is trembling with your lukewarm review.

Reality is, Apple will make this work if they want to play the long game. The hardest part of content is having enough money to buy it, create it, or license it. Apple has plenty of money to do all 3.

Netflix should be the scared one. Disney is coming and they are relentless.

I am on pins and needles to see what they dare ask for this "service".
They may pull a Disney and bundle other things but I doubt it.
They almost have to charge $10 a month but there is nowhere near enough content for that.
Expensive content is nice but it doesn't fill the void. How many times are you going to watch Oprah's love letter to herself and the Morning Show season?

Given that Disney+ combined with Hulu and ESPN is going to destroy Apple's offering, I can see Apple trying to compete by creating an attractive bundle with Apple TV+, Apple Music, and Apple Arcade. Otherwise they're going to get destroyed.

At this point it makes sense to let all the other services announce their pricing. Not sure what Apple’s strategy is just yet but they don’t have a back catalog so it can’t be priced the same way.

I believe all of Apple’s YT channel comments are always locked.
