How COVID infiltrated your favourite TV shows (and why some are snubbing it entirely)
ABCWhen Sarah Jessica Parker revealed the Sex and the City reboot would "obviously" include the pandemic, fans couldn't help but wonder how COVID would be written in alongside Cosmopolitans and relationship columns. Then there's Superstore, a sitcom about frontline employees of a "big box" store similar to Kmart or Bunnings, which could afford to take a more lighthearted approach to those early days of the pandemic. With the tagline "more essential than ever", Superstore leaned in heavily to its pandemic plot lines and, being the first Universal show back in production since the COVID hiatus, was viewed as a guinea pig. And with the pandemic also dominating headlines, it's unsurprising the second season of Morning Wars will see co-anchors Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon trying to "get ahead of this coronavirus thing".
