Why do people like The Good Place. Kristen Bell is charming and Ted Danson is fantastic, but I am one and a half episodes in and finding it very bland and unfunny. I've heard it gets more interesting as it goes along but so far the brand of humor just feels like Tina Fey Lite.

You should probably bail. This might not be for you.

Keep watching...
Yeah, we just finished episode 3 and the end was exciting. My son even remarked how that was an interesting event to happen.
Loved the humor of the plant vis-à-vis the relationship and when it burst into flames...too funny. Also Ted Danson trying to get that one guy to do anything other than work on his book and then finally just saying it was so boring that it drove him to tears was great too.
I listen to enough podcasts that I already know the secret of season one. Luckily no one has gone past that so I'm good on the other seasons when we inevitably get there.

Netflix’s Magic School Bus episode on how the internet works. It surprisingly accurate.

I understand the humor not working for someone. I disagree, I think it's hilarious, but that's an argument I can understand and entertain. But calling it predictable or comparing it to every other network comedy is bizarre to me. I don't think I've ever seen anything like it on TV.

Certainly not on network TV.
Yes, exactly. That's what I meant. It certainly isn't standard network TV, at all.

We’re caught up and ready for the next episode. If there’s anything this show is NOT, it’s predictable.
Kinda surprised Ruddo doesn’t like it. As big a fan of Brooklyn Nine-Nine as he is.

I enjoyed season one but was bored after a few episodes of season two and stopped watching. Not sure I’ll go back.
