ABOUT THE GOOD PLACE
From Michael Schur, executive producer of “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” and “Parks and Recreation,” comes a smart, unique new comedy that follows Eleanor Shellstrop (Kristen Bell, “House of Lies,” “Veronica Mars”), an ordinary woman who, through an extraordinary string of events, enters the afterlife where she comes to realize that she hasn’t been a very good person. With the help of her wise afterlife mentor (Ted Danson, “Bored to Death,” “Cheers”), she’s determined to shed her old way of living and discover the awesome (or at least the pretty good) person within.

  1. I actually like the idea of forcing a real world practical example. I mean ethics that isn't tested is pointless.
    Even those who claim that they would pull the lever, kill 1 to save 5, might hesitate to actually pull the lever if actually presented with one.

  2. personally, i love everything about this episode and the series as a whole but here's the thing, though. he explicitly said there is no right answer. so what good would it do to play it out in real time?

  3. Where was this shot? Why were the extras and cars selected to look like an early 1960s period setting? Was this some set that was already being used for a movie?

  4. The answer is you kill the one. What we learned is that given a situation where the person deciding wasn't the cause of the situation, that person isn't gonna want to kill anyone. That being said, if you can't make this call in a spilt second, you shouldn't operate a car.

  5. This clip makes me realize Chidi is the LAST person you'd want as an ethics professor. Ethics is about making decisions, choosing what is and is not the right thing to do and then living by those moral standards.

    Chidi…can't even decide which hand to throw in Rock-Paper-Scissors.

    "Bend It Like Bentham" (Jeremy Bentham, moral philosopher best known for his theory of utilitarianism"
    ahahaha! I love this show.
