The Good Place (NBC) TV Show • Page 86

which ones exactly did it deserve

 

Nah Schitts deserved every win

 

nah definitely not

 

I would have liked to see Ted Danson win at least

 

i like this show a lot but it wasn’t on SC’s level, at least not in the final season

 

WJH and D'Arcy

 

yes. and the show itself. and mike schur for writing.

 

I'd be fine with any combination of either shows winning things but it's not like Schitts Creek didn't deserve it.

 

love both of them but over the schitt’s creek people absolutely not

 

I haven't seen the final season but I'd be shocked if it's far and away the greatest season of television ever. I don't think it should've won every category unless that was the statement being made.

 

kind of a dumb way to think about it. it’s more “was eugene levy better than the other nominees?” probably. “was catherine o’hara?” probably. we’re the writers, supporting cast, etc etc? probably. overall it adds up but looking category by category, there’s nothing really there where it feels like an unearned win. at all. at best it’s a 50/50 tossup for one of the seven wins.

 

also i would be pretty surprised to hear from anyone here or elsewhere that didn’t think the final season of the good place was the worst season

 

Yeah, I definitely thought 4 was the weakest

 

Interesting, maybe it's recency bias but I thought season 4 was better than season 1. But season 2 will always be my favorite

 

I haven't seen Schitt's Creek but I don't like people talking shit (lolol) about The Good Place's last season

But mostly I just wanted to say Schitt and shit in the same sentence

 

Schitt's Creek is pretty good but I don't think it was overwhelmingly better in any sense.

 

SC is fine, it’s saccharine to me though. The actors are good and the parts are often funny but i think it’s overrated. Like an 7/10. Good Place is much better.

 

Avoided this thread because I was so behind, but now that it's over I can say this might be the most humane, deeply thoughtful show I've ever seen.

 

As for the Emmys, at least it got the nom. Parks was horribly overlooked for anything but Amy's performance.

Sometimes the competition is tough. The Office probably should have won more, but it was up against 30 Rock.

 

The Office shouldn’t have won anything past s5

 

The Office is the most overrated good show of all time

 

This is a really good way to put it

 

Watch Rectify. That's what your description made me think of.

 

I've actually never heard of it.

 

it's near perfect
