A time, as you might recall, full of confusion and fear.
So this should be fun!
Within the show, of course, they have no idea whats coming for them.
As usual, the folks at UBA have enough self-inflicted drama to focus on anyway.
), and ends with Cory declaring that this is a battle for the soul of the universe.
I didnt realize how much I missed Cory until this very moment.
Hes selected Stella Bak (Greta Lee, welcome!)
to replace him as director of news at UBA, while Mia has become the new TMS executive producer.
But most important: R.I.P.
to that ridiculous brown wig that plagued Reese Witherspoons head last season; Bradley is a blonde now.
Bradley Jackson made no sense as a character last season, and it seems were sticking with that.
Bradley decides to go see her old pal Cory to ask him about it.
The exchange is awkward.
She misses him, she says.
Hes very cagey in his response.
So this could be part of the reason this whole conversation feels superficial.
The look on Corys face makes me believe that Bradley doesnt have all the facts of that story.
This tracks, of course, becauseweknow why Cory is so weird during this conversation.
First, obviously, because Cory is weird.
Its why we love him.
Second, because Cory already knows that theyre replacing Marcus with Eric from TMS.
In fact, everyone except for Bradley knows this is happening.
Its not until the New Years Eve in Times Square broadcast that Bradley learns the truth.
Its a real shame because this little country bumpkin is having the time of her life!
But Eric feels so guilty lying to her face repeatedly that he delivers the news.
When Bradley finds Cory, she lets him have it.
Its not really convincing.
Cory wishes she would just trust that he has her best interest at heart.
Cory loves messy drama dont ever believe anything else.
Cory wants to bring Alex back.
Of course, he does!
While the bigwigs discuss Erics move to the evening news, people get honest about Bradley.
Shes not doing great.
As per usual, Cory is the only person really sticking up for her, but hes overruled.
Stella would get rid of her completely.
Thats when inspiration hits.
It will have to take some convincing, although maybe not as much as one would think.
Even if she wanted to go back, she says, she cant.
Its exactly why Cory doesnt give up on his little TMS dream.
Youve yet to do your greatest work, he says.
Alex doesnt listen to the voice-mail until that NYE ball is dropping.
Shes upset, and she knows the psychic (!!)
is right, and when she hears his voice-mail, shes in tears.
She doesntofficiallyaccept the job, but things are looking up for ol Cory Ellison.
Ah, yes, that UBA ship continues to sink.
This Just In!
Yanko is the saddest weatherman.
He seems sort of happy?
This cannot last for long.
Prepare to relive the horror, friends.
The pairing I never knew I needed!
No one knows whats in it, but everyone is scared.
