Ridiculous in the best way
This show is perfect for binge watching, the episodes are short and funny. The repetition of the plot both adds to the humor, and makes it a perfect show to watch while working on something else. Ted Danson and Kristen Bell play off one another extremely well, and the other supporting cast members fall into the world with a perfection I haven't witnessed since the Big Bang Theory. The jokes are basic and well placed resulting in a great experience all around.

Welcome! Everything is fine.
Netflix original afterlife comedy starring Ted Danson (who even gets behind a bar in one episode!) and Kristen Bell, that both makes you think and chuckle during each episode.
I can't think of a single other thing even remotely like it.
It even ends perfectly (if sadly).

This, I felt, is in many ways a spiritual successor to 'The Good Place', with many of the cast from that earlier show appearing in this (mainly in bit parts).
Here, Ted Danson plays a lonely widower who, following the death of his wife from Alzheimer's, seems to be drifting more and more away from having any meaning in life himself, and from his own daughter, until that daughter challenges him to find something to do with his time.
So he answers a newspaper ad, and is hired to infiltrate an OAP home, following the hiring of a Private Detective (who is too young to do so herself) to investigate the potential theft in said OAP.
And, of course, Charles finds himself connecting more and more with the residents and staff of the OAP, as well as with his daughter, as a result, in a 'feel good' series that still also has its share of sad moments ...
