      I like The Good Place a lot but it doesn't really hold the weight people want to put on it (it certainly doesn't actually have any answers to serious moral dilemmas)

      Like the space rock show it's theoretically about a lot of very serious grownup things that, by virtue it the genre it put itself in, it can't address, which is necessary for what it's trying to do but will always be this limitation it can't get past

      One of their obvious sources of inspiration was CS Lewis' The Screwtape Letters and The Great Divorce and Lewis, being genuinely devoutly religious, Went There to a degree Shur can't Like TGD has a guy who was murdered in Hell with his murderer in Heaven

      It's the kind of thing that logically should come up in TGP but never does, there's no real acknowledgment of "serious" sins Even the fact that Eleanor has contributed to ruining countless lives (like Moist von Lipwig having aggregately murdered 8.3 people) is only really a joke

      Anyway it's interesting contrasting TGP's extremely feel good ending with Bojack's ending that came out at exactly the same time, and had a very similar theme from exactly the opposite point of view

      I reckon if they had to tackle legit, serious, sins you'd have to perform some amazing feats of creativity gymnastics to reconcile that with M.S.'s brand of sentimentality and humour. Which, natch, has always been the limit. Which is why in, say, The Office, someone-

      -like Dwight Schrute who irl would be ideal alt.right fodder–the kind of person who harasses women online, writes racist manifestos on Reddit or channeboards,etc––is ultimately treated as just some harmless goof with a hidden heart of gold.

      Or Leslie Knope as a well-meaning politician who never meaningfully has to struggle with systematic bigotry, despite the fact that––as Penelope noted––she would *precisely* be the kind of well-educated liberal white woman who'd throw queer people under the bus.

      The fact that small towns in Indiana like that are built on Native genocide and are incredibly fucking racist today is played as a JOKE on P&R

      That always bugged me. It's part of that "soft-comedy-with-the-occasional-edge" thing I was referring to, seemingly written from this **desperate** desire to believe we already live in a postracial society and we can make jokes like this willy nilly.

      Yeah hence the fact that B99 may be trying to be a softer and more PC cop show than all the other cop shows but it ultimately still is a cop show

          eh I don't agree there, like they're always fighting the NYPD, like the closing "joke" of last season was they ousted the villain from the position as chief and he took a much more high paying job in the private sector "the world truly is a terrible place"

          Yeah, it turned out they didn't... meaningfully affect anything, and all they had to show for it was Holt humiliatingly demoted to a beat cop.

          B99 is a Lawful Good show that years to be seen (and respected) as Chaotic Good.
