Jennifer Aniston is generating awards buzz for her performance in the third season of Apple TV's "The Morning Show." The drama series, which follows the behind-the-scenes drama of a morning TV show, has received critical acclaim for its latest season.
Critics have praised Aniston's performance, with Peter Travers (ABC News) stating, "Aniston has never been better, letting us see the cost to Alex as she walks the tightrope between ambition and becoming someone she can't recognize." Tom Gliatto (People) described her performance as "casually glamorous, occasionally sinewy and from time to time biting."
Max Gao (The AV Club) highlighted the chemistry between Aniston and co-star Reese Witherspoon, noting, "Aniston and Reese Witherspoon are a true delight to watch onscreen."
Aniston's extensive Emmy history is also seen as a factor in her potential win. With eight Emmy nominations, including a win for Best Comedy Actress for "Friends" in 2002, she is a well-respected actress. Notably, her first dramatic role nomination came in 2020 for season one of "The Morning Show."
Season three of "The Morning Show" is considered the show's strongest critically, with a 72% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the highest for any season. Critics point to the show embracing its strengths, including strong performances by Aniston and Witherspoon, the addition of Jon Hamm, and a more prominent role for Billy Crudup's character Cory Ellison.
Aniston's performance has already garnered major award nominations this year, including Best Drama Actress at the SAG Awards and the Critics Choice Awards. "The Morning Show" itself has also received numerous nominations, including Best Drama Series at the Critics Choice TV Awards and Golden Globes, solidifying its position for potential Emmy recognition.
Her awards history and the show's strong season three position her as a strong contender for the Best Drama Actress Emmy Award.
