Jennifer Aniston's 'The Morning Show' to conclude with season 5
Los Angeles, July 23
Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon-led 'The Morning Show' is coming to an end with the fifth season.
Apple on Thursday announced that the already renewed fifth season will be the last for the hit Emmy-winning series when it returns in 2027, as per The Hollywood Reporter.
The media drama, starring and executive produced by Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston, was renewed in September 2025, just hours before its fourth season premiered.
The season five release date will be announced at a later date.
About the show, Aniston said, "From the beginning, Apple has supported our vision for The Morning Show, and we feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to tell stories that reflect what's happening in the world around us with a twist of dark humor," says Aniston. "It's been such a privilege to work with this insanely talented cast, and our extraordinary writers, producers and crew. We've become such a family and we're all so excited to share this final season. And going in knowing it would be our last, we were so fortunate to craft the conclusion with intentionality, and honor these characters the way they deserve."
Witherspoon added, "The past nine years producing and acting in The Morning Show have been the honor of a lifetime. This was always more than a show about a newsroom -- it was a show about why the newsroom matters. About freedom of the press, and the journalists who protect the fourth estate, often at great cost. Telling that story has been the creative privilege of my career. Thank you to Apple for their unwavering support, to our visionary writers, our incredible crew, and our extraordinarily talented cast, who brought five seasons to life with a truth audiences believed every step of the way. It has been a stellar creative experience -- one I will always treasure."
The Morning Show was among the flagship original titles that launched Apple TV's streaming service in 2019. Since its debut, the series produced by Media Res, Echo Films and Hello Sunshine has racked up four Emmy Awards and one Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award among critical acclaim.

I've been following this show since its launch on Apple TV in India! The way it tackled MeToo and newsroom politics was so gripping. Reese Witherspoon's speech about why the newsroom matters really resonated with me, especially given the state of media discourse back home. Will miss this one. 🎬
I tried watching it but couldn't get into it - maybe it's too American for me. But I respect what they did with the fourth estate theme. The production quality in Apple TV shows is always top-notch. Let's see how they end it in 2027. No rush for me.
I'm actually disappointed that they're ending it. This was one of the few shows that intelligently depicted modern journalism - its struggles, ethics, and the human cost. With all the fake news and media manipulation we see in India, The Morning Show felt like a mirror to global journalism challenges. Reese and Jen were phenomenal. 😔
Love how they're giving it a planned ending rather than cancelling abruptly! As a fan of both actresses, I'm excited to see how they wrap it up. The show really evolved from just workplace drama to something more meaningful. Can't wait for 2027 - bingeing season 4 on Apple TV+ in the meantime! 🙌
I'm surprised this is ending already - but I guess quality over quantity. The Morning Show was never typical mass entertainment; it was a slow burn drama about media ethics. In an era where Indian OTT is also pushing boundaries, this show set a benchmark for how to do social commentary through
