The Good Place (2016)
Probably the first sci-fi sitcom I’ve come across. And that’s why I watched it from the beginning to the end. The Good Place is a total chill-out. In addition, it helped my fill the gap where no good new sitcoms are produced, and the TV constantly play reruns of the classics, that is Friends, HIMYM and The Big Bang Theory. In addition, these are still the most watched afternoon shows, which probably says something about their quality. But The Good Place has a chance to reach similar level. It is not possible to offer as much content, as it only has four series in total, but on the other hand it confirms the rule that less is sometimes more. I had a great time and even though some episodes are weaker, in the overall context of the fact that something is happening in each episode, pushingthe story forward, even if sometimes it’s with crazy plot twists, The Good Place is a good series for chill-out, which you might even find yourself binge-watching for a whole evening.
