Carell's Mitch is one of those predicaments a show traps itself with, in that he's amply developed and directly involved in the reversal of Jennifer Aniston's Alex Levy. 'Confirmations' finds the plot, at long last, by offing Steve Carell's character Mitch Kessler, the story's Matt Lauer surrogate. 'The Morning Show' took almost two seasons to reach that point – or to be precise, one season and nearly eight episodes. Sometimes shows meander for a time before becoming what they should have been all along.
