The Good Place (2016–2020)

How could such a good idea go so wrong?

The idea for this is pretty sweet, and in today's TV program selection, where everything is pretty much rated R, it is nice to think that a program like this (PGish) got the green light as a series. I happen to like Ted Danson and Kristen Bell as well, so I was looking forward to something at least moderately interesting and cute.

It isn't.

I gave the first few episodes a chance because I thought it was just getting its footing and that it would improve.

It hasn't.

It is a mish-mash of two good actors thrown in with bottom of the barrel ones and no matter the plot, you simply can't have two actors carry an entire show, especially when some of the characters are not only badly acted, but genuinely uninteresting and annoying to the extreme.

Needs a total revamp.
