Jennifer Aniston Compares The Morning Show Filming To Childbirth

Jennifer Aniston has candidly described filming the Apple TV+ drama The Morning Show as an extremely demanding experience, likening the process to childbirth due to its intensity and grueling schedule. She expressed that after completing each season, she feels exhausted and often doubts whether she will return, yet she ultimately 'forgets' the difficulty and commits to another season. Aniston highlighted the emotional and physical toll by comparing it to 'pushing a watermelon out of a tiny little pinhole,' emphasizing the extraordinary nature of completing a season without declaring herself finished. To recover, she prefers to decompress and transition quickly to comedy projects. Beyond acting, Aniston values her role as an executive producer, appreciating the collaborative spirit among the women involved and the opportunity to create high-quality television with grace and kindness. The Morning Show’s fourth season, premiering in mid-September 2025, continues to explore complex themes around media responsibility and truth in a polarized America, introducing new cast members alongside returning stars like Reese Witherspoon.
