The Morning Show

It was so intense that I just sat in tears before the credits and couldn't move.

To be honest, I myself used to be from the team "You are an adult woman, say no and that's it, no one wrung your hands and tore off your clothes, this is not violence, and what were you waiting for when you came to his room." And out of habit, at first I even felt sorry for Mitch, how come they broke the man's life, the offended ones.

But now I see how many broken women are around, brought up to tolerate everything from men. You need to live in fear, under pressure, you need to be ready for sex if you suddenly decide to wear a skirt or drink. Or come to visit a man. There are so many women around who have no idea about personal boundaries! As Hannah said: "I thought I'd do it, because it wouldn't kill me." Not because she wanted to, but because it just wouldn't kill her. But it killed.

It's very, very scary. And it's too real and relevant. It is necessary and important to talk about this! There are so many Hannahs around who just couldn't stand it, so many Freds, so many Mitchs who really don't understand how they break lives and consider themselves victims.

And how few Bradley and Alex are in this world who will risk EVERYTHING. Our world really needs Bradley and Alex like that.

I am incredibly impressed. Such series overturn worldviews.

A devastating series. There are so many things, and at the same time you don't know what to say, and the sound of this siren in your head when you turned off the channel to the color table.
A couple of episodes ago, a suspicion crept in that someone would die at the end, because their struggle is more moral, ethical, professional. Something physical, material had to happen, something in real life, not on the screen, a bomb that would blow everyone up. Really, I thought someone was going to kill Mitch. :D
And Hannah, she really seemed so strong...
in the middle, the scene on the escalator was very steep when the Chip goes up, but at the same time it definitely goes down.
And the fact that Chip started all this and it was for Alex's sake, and what eventually turned out for both Chip and Alex - for me this is a great denouement. Especially the fact that Mitch's drain in fact was not even connected with me too, with dissatisfaction with Mitch himself and his behavior, but only so that he was fired, not Alex.
And Bradley will now live with a sense of guilt, a truth-teller who has realized the price sometimes comes at the thirst for truth.

"Daniel, I'm telling you. If you walk out that door now, you won't be able to come back when this place is vacant again.
"And when will that happen?" Because women live longer than men, and these two seem to do Pilates a lot.

conflicting impressions of the series. in the beginning, it was sweet — how everyone adored Mitch, what sincere speeches he made, how he wanted to establish a relationship with his wife, suffered from an existential crisis... I bought it, almost felt sorry for the man.
And then nate!
watching the scene with Hannah was disgusting (to me personally) also because I remembered Mitch's words in the previous episode. they say he helped her get ahead in her job, let her "return the favor." what it really looked like: Hannah stood out solely because of her brains. She took the initiative—at the right moment, yes—and was noticed. I can't say what attracted Mitch to her, but it seems that this is his type — modest-looking girls without an outstanding ego (remember the same Ashley). he offered to send Hannah to Vegas — I note that this is not yet a grandiose career growth, the girl was just given a chance. The details of her work are not shown to us, but let's be honest, if she were brainless, then her career would have ended in Vegas. Mitch's behavior in his room is disgusting. It's like he's a different person, something is shutting down. he hardly looked at her reaction, did not ask for any verbal confirmation. the way he presents what is happening ("it's okay, I just wanna feel good", without even asking what she wants) already says a lot. that this behavior is the norm for him. This is confirmed by the situation when Hannah came to Fred, and he was not even surprised. He just directly offered her a raise instead of a showdown in order to openly hush up what had happened.
I was also annoyed by how Mitch got rid of Mia! in fact, because she decided to keep her distance and not make out with him. it turns out to be a contrast — because of Mitch's liberties, someone's career can rise, and someone's can suffer. and these two examples already show that at least a few people were aware of what was happening.
it was very appropriate to insert a video with Weinstein at the end. It's funny to see how everyone seems to despise him, but at the same time they turn a blind eye to what's going on under their noses.
hopefully, in the next episode, Hannah will say, "fuck you, asshole," and close the door in front of Mitch.
