USA 2016 - 2020
This is one of the best stories told in recent years about mortality, morality and humanity and it was funny as hell.
The Good Place is a story that frequently pulled the rug from under you and made you think about moral choices and your relationships with other people and it did it with an Arizona dirtbag, a Floridian idiot, a British dilettante and the world's most indecisive philosopher.
The premise: a woman wakes up and is welcomed to The Good Place after her death. She adjusts to life after death and is partnered with her soulmate. Things get weird after that.
That's all you need to know.
That's all you should know.
It recently ended a 4 season run of 51 episodes and it is one of the strongest series ever from start to finish. It never caught on with a big audience but it's going to be one of those shows that will be remembered fondly.
Like Freaks and Geeks. Like Firefly.
It found a bigger audience than both of those shows but those who saw it and love it, love it deeply.
If you're searching for something that takes a little more engagement, demands a little more attention and is hilarious, this is your next option.
