What’s next for The Good Place? Recently, creator Michael Schur spoke with Entertainment Weekly about plans for a possible second season of the NBC TV series.
The comedy stars Kristen Bell as Eleanor Shellstrop, an ordinary woman who mistakenly ends up in the good place after she dies. The cast also includes Ted Danson, D’Arcy Carden, Jameela Jamil, Manny Jacinto, and William Jackson Harper.
In the interview, Schur teased season two (note: NBC has not yet officially renewed The Good Place for a second season, though it seems likely):
I will say that by the end of the final episode, you hopefully will be very excited to see what season 2 is. Because you’ll get the sense that season 2 will be very different from season 1.”
And as for the season one finale, which airs tonight, January 19th, at 8 p.m. ET/PT? Schur said the characters visit the “unusual” Medium Place,” a kind of purgatory:
It’s extremely unusual, and what I mean by that is that it’s not like the neighborhood in the Good Place. This was like a once-in-a-lifetime situation — or once-in-a-thousand years or whatever you want to call it — so it’s a neighborhood of one.”
What do you think? Do you watch The Good Place? Do you want a second season?
Yes. I look forward to a second season
WOW, Great unexpected twist, love it. YES YES A season two Please !!
yeeeessss season 2 please
Please renew! Love the show!
The Good Place is one of only two shows on my can’t miss list! I really hope it’s renewed.
Really enjoy the show. Hope it’s back for another season
Please renew this show I agree it is surprising and funny
I am so ready for a second season. The Good Place is funny and surprising. The only criticism I have is that it should be an hour long.
Yes, RENEW!
Great imaginative and unique ending. Love the reboot concept. Sure hope NBC renews. If not, sell it to Netflix or Amazon to distribute.
Season 2!!! Must must must!
Yes please!!
Please renew The Good Place! It’s different, quirky, funny and all the characters are likeable (even if some do belong in the Bad Place).
I don’t think Jason is likable. He’s had no character growth. We had revelations about who he really he is, but he’s as selfish and entitled now as he was when he was alive. This only makes Eleanor’s transformation that much clearer.
Can’t wait to see the finale tonight! Already looking forward to season two!!
Yes! Please bring the Good Place back for season 2!!!
