You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I can sort of see why you might think that from the pilot, but try watching a few more episodes. I've seen all the episodes of The Good Place so for, and it's not really like that at all.

Plus, Kristen Bell and Ted Danson are awesome, and even the annoying neighbor lady is growing on me.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

even the annoying neighbor lady is growing on me.

Getting a good chunk of her backstory really helped with that. By the end of the episode with all her flashbacks, I was kind of wrecked on her behalf.

Yup, seeing what her motivations were helped ever so. The other thing that was interesting was that it seems like Chidi is her actual soulmate.

Definitely where the show seems to be going.

I'm really enjoying this show.

I'm still a couple episodes behind, but the show is growing on me. I haven't gotten to the episode focusing on the neighbor lady yet.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I just finished the entire season of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and I'm so torn. I've been mainlining it and craving it, in spite of finding the entire premise (and especially the title) very problematic. I kinda wish it were called anything but "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" and yet also kinda appreciate the normalizing of a very emotionally distressed person without the show really being about that...even though it's kinda the title of the show. But seriously, I'm really conflicted about how much I've been enjoying this show.

Still loving The Good Place, and am really intersted in what happens now that Eleanor has come clean. The whole murdering Janet thing was hilarious.

I understand that is problematic, but I really adore Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.

Thrive to spite them

I'm catching up on The Good Place! NBS has it streaming for free.., I don't even have to jump through hoops about a cable company (on a few websites mine hasn't been recognized).

On Episode 5 now and still like it and just learning about Tahani.., I wanted to smack her parents.

Watched The Great Indoors, and I liked it more than I expected. It's probably because it's basically Newsradio in modern costume, with Joel McHale as Dave and Stephen Fry as Jimmy James.

The Good Place continues to delight.
