Following a reduced role in season 2, The Morning Show season 3, episode 4 saw the unfortunate return of Fred Micklen when he crashed Cory’s after-party. The Morning Show season 3 added new cast members after the loss of one of its biggest stars when Mitch (Steve Carell) died in season 2. Viewers and characters alike may have been hoping that with Mitch’s death, Fred would also be disappearing from the series for good. However, Fred’s appearance in The Morning Show season 3, episode 4 not only marked his return but showed that he’s not planning on leaving again anytime soon.
