The Good Place

While the news has always had a certain degree of terribleness to it, you cannot deny that these past few weeks can best be described as some sort of hellish landscape. Thankfully, The Good Place returned to our screens last night, injecting humour into our lives. The show, brought to you by Michael Schur (who you may also recognize from another one of the best shows on TV, Brooklyn 99), is in its third season, and stars Kristen Bell, Ted Danson, William Jackson Harper, Jameela Jamil, Manny Jacinto, and D’Arcy Carden.

Giving us exactly enough to make even the most impatient of us wish we could grab a TARDIS and emerge on October 7th, the trailer features the Doctor and her companions, a spaceship, Jakku?, and hints at this Doctor’s personality. If anyone was worried that the show would fundamentally change, this trailer should alleviate those concerns.

Lately, it has become nearly impossible to keep up-to-date on everything; staying on top of the incredibly fast-paced news cycle is overwhelming enough. Sometimes, despite our best efforts, we miss news about things we actually like (I nearly missed the She-Ra trailer, which borders on blasphemy in my world, for example). This is where Geeks in Art is here to help; by rounding up all the nerdy news you need to know that you may have missed over the past week.
