The Good Place (Netflix) season 3

Back on earth for a second chance at their separate lives, at first everything goes well for Eleanor, Chidi, Tahani and Jason. But they all too soon revert to their true characters so Michael and Janet decide to break the rules and interfere. They bring the four together in Australia (because of course where else?), so they can again influence each other for good. Nowhere near as sharp and funny as the first two series, this one is mildly amusing at best and therefore disappointing. With so many Australian actors in Hollywood it’s a pity more of them weren’t employed here, as some of the attempts at the accent are very bad indeed. The quality picks up a bit once the gang returns to the afterworld, with some fun cameos but it’s still a bit meh. The ending goes back to the future, leaving things open for another series, but they probably shouldn’t bother.
