Prime Video loves Elle, the prequel series to Legally Blonde, so much that they picked it for a second season, months before the first episode even airs.
Today, the streamer and Reese Witherspoon announced that the series will debut on July 1st, along with the renewal news to the cast and us.
In Season One, Elle follows Elle Woods in high school as we learn about the life experiences that shaped her into the iconic young woman we came to know and love in the first Legally Blonde film.
“Twenty-five years after the world met Elle Woods for the first time, it’s a dream come true to share the story of how she became the unstoppable force we all fell in love with,” said Reese Witherspoon. “Discovering Lexi Minetree and watching her step into Elle’s fabulous shoes has been one of the most gratifying experiences of my career. I think our series’ themes of kindness, authenticity, and believing in yourself will resonate deeply with fans of the original films and new audiences alike. Working with our incredible Hello Sunshine team, Amazon and our visionary writers and directors to bring Elle’s high school journey to life has been a tremendous joy. I can’t wait to share Season One with the world and start rolling cameras on Season Two!”
When The Morning Show ended its last season, UBA merged with NBN. So we have been wondering how the merger will affect everyone we know. We will finally start to see those ramifications beginning on September 17th.
Season four opens in spring 2024, almost two years after the events of season three. With the UBA-NBN merger complete, the newsroom must grapple with newfound responsibility, hidden motives, and the elusive nature of truth in a polarized America. In a world rife with deepfakes, conspiracy theories, and corporate cover-ups – who can you trust? And how can you know what’s actually real?
Having worked in national network news, after watching the trailer, this season looks a lot like what I experienced. There is a lot of backstabbing, desperation to break the story, and the behind-the-scenes is so much better than what you see on TV. Oh, the stories I could tell you, but I still have a loyalty to the job. I am an old-school journalist.
The Morning Show is coming back on September 17th, and now we know more details about what we can expect from the upcoming season on Apple TV+.

I don’t know how I feel about the time jump. I kind of wanted to see the ugliness of the merger. But then, I am like, maybe it is good that they have already gotten through the transition. What do you think?
Reese Witherspoon famously played a lawyer in Legally Blonde and its sequel. However, she is not one in real life. But she was so believable in the role that she was once mistaken for being one.
The actress shared a story with Graham Norton about how believable she was. Seven years after the first film came out, the actress was called to jury duty in Beverly Hills, and she was picked. When it came time to choose a foreman, the jurors wanted her to take on that role. Why? They thought she went to law school. As we know, she didn’t.
What was the case? She spent two weeks listening to a woman suing another one because she got bit trying to break up a dog fight.
Witherspoon didn’t say whether they found the dog owner guilty. But she did say everyone knows how to put your handle in the middle of a dogfight.
So, it sounds like even though she did not go to law school, the jurors made the correct choice by choosing her.
Before Osgood Perkins was directing scary movies like The Monkey, he was getting slapped by Reese Witherspoon in Legally Blonde. How innocent does the 26-year-old look in that 2001 movie?
