When I hear The Good Place I always think of the old Brit comedy The Good Life. Very much a “fuck the man” sort of show, set on a couple trying to become fully self-sufficient in suburban London back in the 70s.

Ok so I know I’m replying to my own comment but fuck it, since I haven’t seen it mentioned and it absolutely destroyed the brit comedy scene at its time, Only fools and horses. Really speaks to the working class struggle at the time (1980+) and even now.

League of Gentlemen is quite a fun dark comedy. Not everyone’s cup of tea though, which is fair. Same with inside no. 9, made by the same cast, but is a bit more modern and drama-like.

My ex really liked that show, mostly the main guy. Could you elaborate a bit, e.g. plot, characters etc, if it’s no trouble?
