I’ve always enjoyed philosophy (and taken a few courses) so The Good Place was something I really enjoyed. I think it’s got just enough philosophy in it to not scare casual viewers but trick then into learning some of the basics without realizing it. I honestly think we should be teaching a basic introduction to philosophy to high-schoolers. It’s such an important basis for understanding the world and yourself. It makes you consider why and what you think that you may have taken for granted before.
