The Good Place starring Kristen Bell and Ted Danson will be added to Netflix in August 2017. Here are five reasons why you should watch the series on Netflix!

Are you ready to go to The Good Place? This August, Netflix is taking you there! The first season of the hit NBC series The Good Place is coming to Netflix in the United States on Tuesday, August 29.

If you missed The Good Place on NBC last fall, you have to see this series as soon as you can. The first season of the series consists of the 13 episodes, and all of those episodes will be streaming on Netflix by the end of August.

The series was created by Michael Schur, best known for his work on The Office and Parks and Recreation. Kristen Bell, Ted Danson, William Jackson Harper, D’Arcy Carden, Jameela Jamil, and Manny Jacinto star in The Good Place.

The series tells the story of Eleanore Shellstrop (Bell), a woman who arrives in “The Good Place” after her death, despite being an all-around terrible human. Eleanore quickly realizes there has been a mistake and tries to stay in The Good Place instead of going to “The Bad Place.”

The Good Place was one of my favorite shows on TV from last fall, and I’m especially psyched this show is coming to Netflix, so all the Netflix subscribers can see this show.

NBC has also renewed the series for a second season, and the new season is scheduled to premiere on NBC on September 28. So, you will have roughly one month to watch the first season before season 2 premieres. You can also watch the series on NBC.com.

The second season of the series will also be released on Netflix, but we don’t know when exactly to expect those new episodes. It will probably be some time in the summer of 2018.

If you are still skeptical about watching The Good Place on Netflix, we’ve listed five reasons why you should be excited to watch this series.

1. The Good Place was the best new comedy of the last year.

The Good Place was not nominated for the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy, but I think should have been. The only new comedy nominated was Atlanta, and while that was good, there is really know way to compare The Good Place to Atlanta.

If you like a lower stakes comedy, The Good Place is the show for you to watch on the streaming service. It’s so funny!

2. Great premise and even better execution

The Good Place is such a good premise. It’s an excellent take on the afterlife, and as I mentioned, it’s such a funny take, too. Michael Schur really outdid himself with this series. The writing is flawless, and I think that makes it easy everybody involved to create such an excellent series, all-around.

I’m shocked this show was not nominated for a single Emmy. I’m hoping the show gets some love from the TV Academy after season 2, which is shaping up to be awesome.

3. The acting is fantastic

Everybody knows Ted Danson is one of the best TV actors ever. While not one of his best roles yet, he plays a great part in this series, and Danson does not disappoint. Kristen Bell as the female lead is also incredible in this show. I’ve been a big fan of hers for a long time, but this my be my favorite role of hers yet.

And, the rest of the cast is really good, too. While not as well known as the legendary Danson and Bell, who is one of the most popular actresses in the game right now, William Jackson Harper, D’Arcy Carden, Jameela Jamil, and Manny Jacinto are all really, really good.

4. The mystery and suspense is the best part of the show

You’ll be interested in this series if you like Schur, Danson, Bell and sitcoms, but you will stay for the mystery. After Eleanore arrives at The Good Place and realizes she is not supposed to be there, she tries to hide her real identity and the fact that she is not supposed to be there. Then, things start going wrong, even though nothing is supposed to go wrong there.

The reasons why everything goes wrong and the investigation into these problems is the best part of the show.

5. There are more seasons coming!

No one wants to watch a show that gets canceled after the first season. As we mentioned, there are more episodes The Good Place on the way. Within the next 12 months, we will have, hopefully, two seasons of the series available to stream on Netflix. And, after that, hopefully NBC has renewed the series for more seasons!
