Watchseries; Honestly, this show is fun. That's the bottom line for it. I have watched the first eight episodes so far, and it's not the funniest or most clever TV I have every watched, but it was fun to view. It's bright, has fun set pieces, and the characters are all great. Kristen Bell and Ted Danson both play their parts beautifully, and are a pleasure to watch perform. One of the most fun aspects of the show is slowly having the rules of "The Good Place" revealed to you as you watch. I hope this show isn't cancelled, because I would be sorely disappointed if I didn't get to keep learning how this world operates. If you haven't yet tried out "The Good Place" it is well worth a shot.

The Good Place watchseries. There are very few tv shows/movies that I give 10 stars - and The Good Place is one of them.
The first season was great, I always thought the after life to be a great subject with endless possibilities, and they gave it a nice and smart idea, with good humour.
The 2nd and 3rd seasons werent amazing, but it was still worth watching. I really thought that the director had lost the way, because after the first plot twist what else could they show us, right? I had the impression the storyline was getting too "crazy". Well, I was wrong, it was all to lead where the writter wanted.
I read somewhere they had it planned from the beginning that the show would be 4 seasons and I finished watching - the last one was absolutely marvelous. The way they worked with all the "afterlife problems" that many people can think of but never give too much thoght to it - it was all explored in the series, and the ending was one of the best finales in TV history, superb. They gave every character a proper closure, leaving no loose ends.
The show is way way more than I expected at first sight, has deep philosophical reflections, awesome characters - their development as a (dead) person, and the way they finished it made it go to my masterpiece's list. A show that I'd recommend to anyone, any age.

"Picture a wave. In the ocean. You can see it, measure it, its height, the way the sunlight refracts when it passes through. And it's there. And you can see it, you know what it is. It's a wave.
And then it crashes in the shore and it's gone. But the water is still there. The wave was just a different way for the water to be, for a little while. You know it's one conception of death for Buddhists: the wave returns to the ocean, where it came from and where it's supposed to be." -Chidi

I thought this would be boring, but watched the pilot... then the second episode... then the third... fourth... fifth... sixth... seventh... and came full-stop only because those are the only episodes I could watch now On Demand.
Smart, funny, and thoughtful, with diverse characters and a quirky premise. Fun to see Ted Danson in a comedy again, too.
Not the usual, run-of-the-mill comedy, but also not just an off-the-rail-whatever show. Always seems to be an ethical point made.
I especially like the "Welcome" movie. Wondering about MY score.
Hey, Janet?

The good place is when a tv show is changing the world for the better.
There are no longer a lot of this type of program on television, and this is a rational thing in the public domain, but an act that has become a bad place, or this is what I thought before I watched so good place.
When I watch The Good Place, I do not watch it as an entertainment series. I am changing my life for the better, and the series has already succeeded in doing that. Thank you, The Good Place.
Note The series contains the most relaxing nerve ending you will watch so don't forbid yourself to watch it
