The Morning Show season 5 is officially going ahead, which is not surprising considering it's one of Apple TV’s flagship productions and most popular TV shows – but it’s also one of its most divisive.
Is the show – a fictional behind the scenes look at all the drama and scandal that goes on The Morning Show show on UBN? An escapist and enjoyable soap-opery watch? Or is it silly, "chaotic" or "the most ridiculous show on TV" as some critics have described it? Well, it’s a mixture of all the above, really.
The Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon-led program is certainly a unique viewing experience. Indeed, the series has clocked up many viewers: Deadline reported after the third season that it was Apple TV’s most watched show, ever, and had broken records.
Season four was released in September 2025, and on the week of its launch, the streamer revealed that the multi Emmy award-winning show had been renewed for a fifth series. So, what do we know so far about where this next chapter will take us; who can we expect in the cast, and when is the potential release date? Like a breaking story on the morning TV channel: here’s all the news:
The Morning Show season 5: release date speculation
While there’s no exact release date announced for The Morning Show season 5 just yet, looking back at the previous four series of the show, we might be in for a little bit of a wait. Traditionally, there’s been a two-year gap in between each series, and while the most recent series would have been delayed by Hollywood strikes, it’s possible that there could still be the same length in-between season 4 and 5.
So, with the new series being announced in September 2025, that could mean that the follow-on season might not hit our screens until the second half of 2027. But, as we said, nothing’s confirmed as yet, and perhaps the production team might surprise us with an early start, just like the TV anchors in the show.
The Morning Show season 5: trailer speculation
There’s nothing as yet for the trailer, but keep checking back, and as soon as the news breaks, we’ll upload the trailer for the new series.
