I like Good Place but it feels like all the characters are basically Tom Haverford and really cartoonish and breezy. I don't think there is much emotional payoff happening.

They explain this in S3. Also explained is how they ended up back at the moment of their deaths if they spent all that time in the afterlife.

Finished MitHC s3 last night and thought it was by far the best season. S1 didn't really go much beyond “whoa look how hosed up it would be if the Axis won WW2” and s2 lacked narrative focus and pacing (not having a show runner will do that). This season had a clear, well paced central story, several Holy poo poo moments and the really leaned into the scifi stuff. They also added some good new characters. After the first 2 seasons I didn't feel like I had a sense of where the show was going, but after this season I can see the direction.

All this to say, if you gave up after the second season, maybe give it another chance.

E: also the same actor who plays Himmler also played the old German dude who stood up to Loki in Avengers

I spent most of the show hoping he would die in a very special episode or something. He was my least favorite part of the show. I love B99 though.

So how long does it take to get into Legion?

I'm two episodes in and it's jumping all over the place, which I guess is expected if the guy has super MPD or something, but it isn't making for the most engrossing viewing experience.

Stick with it, things coalesce pretty quickly and you will be glad you did. Also, the epsiodes are much more enjoyable the second time around.

I caught up to The Good Place last night 'cause I fell a few episodes behind. Immediately dove into the thread to catch up then remembered why I let the posts pile up on that one lmbo. It's a great thread when the episodes are airing but my eyes glaze over during the weeks between RIP.

I usually dig the week to week discussions of shows in the general threads, but The Good Place is the last show I want to pick apart and theorycraft over. More power to the people who do tho but drat.

At least it isn't as bad as the Westworld thread gets lmbo, or the hundred page 'but are you actually you if you go into a new body ??' derail in the Altered Carbon thread.

Oh yeah, she and Danson are fantastic -- I mean, obviously, but it deserves repeating.

Big fan of Manny Jacinto and D'arcy Carden too. Particularly Jacinto, who seems to always be finding new ways to play the material he's given. (And ends up doing a lot to redeem a character that I reckon the show tends to struggle with.)

And I'm always happy to see Tiya Sircar turn up as well.

Yes I agree, by process of elimination William Jackson Harper is the weakest of the regular cast.

(Jameela Jamil is funny, as is WJH, and I appreciate their charms. But I think there's a greeness to her acting, hence my lower regard of her as compared to the other cast members. It's the same with Rob Mcelhenny on It's Always Sunny. He's entertaining, and his enthusiasm is clear. But I'm not certain that he's much of a straight up actor.)

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Episode 4 is probably the episode that will tell you whether or not you dig the season.

This was a nice little dramatic arc and right in line with the show.


B99 is good even if you don't like Sandberg because the rest of the cast, especially Braugher, is great. It also rather amazingly swerved out of the way of the Boyle/Diaz oncoming wreck.
