I don’t know how many executives Michael Schur had to hogtie, to not only get this show made and bring it to a conclusion, but he will forever have my gratitude.
Exactly! Not only that but I often will go out of my way to not guess where a show is going because I’ll get disappointed when they end where they began or just play to a trope. But The Good Place constantly elevated the story by going where it should and not what people are used to.
If you haven't listened, The Good Place: The Podcast is a good listen for fans as well. (to anyone else, there are spoilers. I don't remember the exact details of what/when, but I'd just watch the whole show before listening.)
Yeah, every one of those shows serve a different purpose and fills a niche for me. Different moods for each show and they’re all equally amazing. Some are better character stories, some are better comedy writing, and some are just silly. Whatever your mood, I’d you’re wanting comedy, it’s all found here.
