10 Best Female Antiheroes On TV

10. The Morning Show - Alex Levy

Alex Levy is a morning news anchor and American sweetheart to her adoring fans, but behind closed doors she is dealing with far darker decisions that position her more as a self-serving survivalist. After her "TV-husband" and co-host Mitch Kessler is embroiled in a sexual abuse scandal, Alex attempts to weather the storm and protect her own career rather than help expose Mitch as the monster he is.

Alex is a complicated character who is dealing with her own issues as powerful men try to control her and manipulate her as they see fit. In an incredibly competitive industry, Alex has no choice but to look out for herself, whilst struggling with the fact she and Mitch were close friends.

This leads Alex to inadvertently promote an environment of silence culture around Mitch as they all turn a blind eye to his abuse of power. Alex reckons with these past choices throughout the first season and struggles with what to do, but she knows she has to do the right thing eventually as, unlike Mitch, she has a moral core underneath her cold exterior.
