    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. At best mediocre. I would have liked to see this work but, it just doesn't. pretty much the same joke each episode, something went wrong and ethics were considered. Only character which invokes empathy is Janet, ironically an android has the most human plot. It is a weak show especially for such potentially strong performers. If you want to try wait until the season has finished and try binge watching, I find binging comedy has the effect of compressing laughs together. which for this series will only be mild chuckles at best.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Getting worse by the episode.

    Remember when Ted Danson was actually funny? Remember when he dressed better? The scripts create no sympathy for the lead characters except for Janet. I keep hoping they send all four of these shallow and increasingly unlikable characters to an old style “bad place” and save us the trouble of the weak stories. This year’s plot lines make me think Michael is the one who is actually being tortured and the rest of the characters are in on the story within the story.

    Thought this was going to be a better show based on the cast and a somewhat interesting premise but so far severely disappointed.    … Expand

    Yes, The Good Place is strange--also ridiculously inventive, silly, smart and strangely, unexpectedly deep.

    The best show on network television. Michael Schur’s hysterical deconstruction of karma is reaching for new levels of brilliant absurdity in its second season after blowing people’s minds with the twist at the end of the first.

    There’s a distinct plan in place, one that opens up all kinds of new narrative ground for the show to explore. Along the way, it gets to pursue the most fascinating questions it set up last season. What does moral growth really mean?
