The Good Place

Post by CaptainWacky »

I watched the first episode(s). It was pretty good. I like Kristen Bell ad TV's Ted Danson. It was funny when he kicked a dog into the sun. I don't know how they're going to do a full series out of it though. It was kind of hard to tell where it's going (beyond her learning to be a good person.) But I'll keep watching probably!

I'll have to watch the first episode online at some point. I was a bit curious about it myself.

I'm tired of "high concept" TV. Afterlife, post-apocalypse settings, take a pill and you brain grows...

I've never enjoyed the post-apocalypse stuff.

I thought it was cute, but its normal night is gonna be Thursdays at 8:30. I don't know if it will have competition or if I'll even be parked in front of the tv at that time.

I will be up against Gray's Anatomy, and a new sitcom that follows Big Bang Theory.

Also Thursday Night Football for a while.

I don't think the setting matters as long as something's good.

Keven Can Wait is the show you are thinking of. It did not look good based on the advertisements for it.

It's replacing "DOG SHIFT", a shameless Cat Cleaners knock-off.

Why did the fake monk send a threatening looking note if he wanted to team up with her?
