The Good Place debuted almost a decade ago, and while it was obvious from the beginning that the sitcom was a standout project, one episode quickly cemented the suggestion that no one would ever be able to guess what would happen next. While The Good Place often thrived on its more lighthearted moments, its high-concept storyline regularly came to the forefront to set itself apart from other sitcoms. It boasts an impressive amount of lore for a show comprised of 20-minute episodes, but it’s also the twists and turns that allow The Good Place to shine.
