Apologies for bumping without a date for S3 or anything, but I did want to note that there's an official podcast with Mike Schur out now. People seem to be enjoying it. The Good Place official podcast.

Appreciate the heads up. Thank you
edit: I think it was a good call to make Marc the host instead of Mike. Hopefully that helps elucidate better questions since Mike kind of already knows everything.

Just finished the first episode of the podcast. That was forking awesome. Loved all the insight from Schur. And Marc Evan Jackson who plays Sean said he scoured the internet to see if anyone saw the twist coming and he only found 1 person on reddit that kinda called it but he forgot about his theory until someone brought it up. Was great hearing how they put so much effort into hiding the twist. They really nailed it since that swerve was jaw dropping.
I watched the 2 seasons in one go and the twist took me by surprise, one of the most memorable show moments in a while for me. I was glad I could watch what happened right away. This end-season hook is a bit less tantalising but still can't wait til it's back. Favorite ongoing show together with BCS and Atlanta.

Well, fork. I was really hoping that the new scenario would be resolved within an episode or two, but it sounds like they'll be sticking with it for longer.

I am so excited for this new season. The Good Place has been my favorite show in several years. I can't wait to see how the cast will reunite.
That's still quite a while, but can't wait. BCS begins before that right? That'll tide me over.
I really need S2 to hit Netflix to tide me over until September. There were way too many good moments this season and I already rewatched P&R and S1.
Same day as the first episode of Life is Strange 2. A potentially very good day.
If anyone is going to San Diego Comic-Con, NBC will have a full exhibit that will make you feel like you're actually in The Good Place! I wish I went this year if only for this:

September still too far away.

I want to go to there.
slightly off topic, but one of the writers for this show wanted an emmy for 'shortform comedy series', wrote and shot a shortform comedy series called "an Emmy for Megan", and wound up being nominated for an Emmy for it. One of the most surreal and hilarious things i've ever seen

I don't know how to say this without spoiling that series:
It's begging for a crossover in TGP...because of what happened.
D'Arcy Carden is a treasure. Good to hear a few details about season three that aren't huge.
Just wanted to note that the podcast is still rolling. They're onto Ep 8, and they also released the panel discussion from Comic Con as an audio ep. Well worth listening to if you're interested in how the show comes together.
The official podcast is so good. Listened to the D'arcy Carden episode yesterday and started the Danson episode this morning and it's just so much fun to listen to everyone involved with the show talk about it.
Agreed. It's a lot of fun to listen to. You haven't gotten to the origin story for "Ya basic!" - that's coming up when they get into S2.
So I can start my rewatch on September 2nd and finish right before it starts (at a pace of 1 ep/day). Nice.Here's a brand new promo poster for Season 3, courtesy of TV Line:

By G*d they're finally doing it
She was a music host. So she acted, but more like "I love your music" acting, not reading a script acting
Kind of. If you haven't, give the podcast a listen to.
Shes a guest in episode 3, and shes fantastic. She talks a lot about her acting "career" before The Good Place.
Yep. that's the first thing I saw her in in. She doesn't get to do much in that but is fucking hilarious in TGP. Must be such a fun role to play

Despite moving to LA without a job or even a plan, she landed a part in sitcom The Good Place in her first audition, thanks to some white lies: "I lied in my audition. I said I'd mostly done theatre because it's harder to track down."
"Technically it's not a lie because when I was six I played Oliver's mother in my school play. I was creative with the truth."
I love how American Hollywood casting agents just assume anyone with a posh british accent must of course have an extensive theater/play career and of course that immediately translates well to TV. I mean, just look at Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen!
Reading that article and god damn fucking Hollywood.
