When Eleanor Shellstrop finds herself in the afterlife, she's both relieved and surprised that she's made it into the Good Place. But it doesn't take long for Eleanor to realize she's there by mistake. She hides in plain sight from the Good Place's architect, Michael, and his all-knowing assistant, Janet. Her seemingly perfect neighbors, Tahani and Jason, and open-hearted soul mate, Chidi, help her realize that it's never too late to change. With the help of her new friends -- and a few enemies -- Eleanor becomes determined to shed her old way of life in hopes of discovering a new one in the afterlife.

In its second season, it started to feel like The Good Place could do anything. Go to Full Review
Ellen E Jones Guardian 05/31/2018
The Good Place continues to work as a light sitcom, even as it fearlessly explores weighty philosophical conundrums and peels back the layers of liberal self-delusion. Go to Full Review
Jenna Scherer Rolling Stone 02/02/2018
The Good Place has established itself as one of the single best shows on TV today: slyly intelligent, relentlessly creative, existentially profound and consistently laugh-out-loud funny. Go to Full Review
Alex Diedrick Uproxx 11/11/2021
While the first season is great, a spoiler-filled twist really opens up the show's potential in its second season and carries that bold style of storytelling through to the end, complete with running Blake Bortles gags and all-knowing burritos. Go to Full Review

kish b Nov 17 ★★★★★ The Good Place is, without exaggeration, one of the smartest, funniest, and most profoundly moving sitcoms ever made. What starts as a clever high-concept comedy ("What if there’s an afterlife… but someone ended up there by mistake?") slowly reveals itself to be a masterful exploration of ethics, personal growth, forgiveness, and what it actually means to be a good person. Michael Schur and the writers pull off the impossible: they make philosophy hilarious, heartfelt, and genuinely exciting. The cast is perfect: Kristen Bell’s Eleanor is chaotic sunshine, Ted Danson’s Michael is a gift to humanity, William Jackson Harper’s Chidi is painfully relatable, Jameela Jamil’s Tahani is iconic, Manny Jacinto’s Jason is pure genius, and D’Arcy Carden’s Janet deserves every award in existence. Four seasons of non-stop twists (some of the biggest "holy forking shirtballs" moments in TV history), laugh-out-loud gags, and surprisingly deep emotional punches. By the finale, you’re crying over a sitcom that once made you laugh about a giant shrimp flying through the sky. It’s comfort food that also rewires your brain and makes you want to be better tomorrow than you were today. Watched it three times and I still tear up at the door. The Good Place isn’t just good TV; it’s good for the soul. 10/10. Take it sleezy. ❤️ See more Dylan B Jul 12 Best show ever made! I've watched it over ten times all the way through and love it more with each rewatch See more Thomas H @TLHadley Apr 23 Very much keeps up the pace of the first season. Very well done. Story lines are great, and still amazingly funny. See more Elena G Apr 15 Are you still wondering "what else could they possibly do?" because this show is doing it all! Every twist and turn is thoughtfully curated and will have you wondering how it will all come together in the end. But, unlike many other shows out there, it goes only where it needs to. The Good Place consistently highlights the tenacity of the human spirit and the desire to survive while remarking on the importance of compassion amongst everything. See more Joey G @LegoJo7 Mar 26 This was even better than the first season, and that’s saying something because the first season was awesome! I’m excited to see what happens next! See more Pie S Mar 18 Satisfying ending for all main characters. I will definitely miss watching this show! See more Read all reviews
