How this season is filed
Selfish Eleanor wakes in a heavenly planned community that is not what it seems. Michael Schur's NBC sitcom turns ethics thought experiments into popcorn — Bell, Danson, Chidi's indecision, Janet's everything — then actually sticks a four-season landing. Broadcast comedy that got smarter and stranger, and made 'what we owe to each other' a living-room phrase.
