Ted Danson Says Goodbye to The Good Place

With the third seasons now streaming on Netflix and the fourth and final season airing on NBC, fans of The Good Place are getting ready for what will inevitably be a bittersweet goodbye. The show took many by surprise, delivering a brand of comedy that was at times absurd, at times heartwarming, and had us crying more often than we’d like to admit.

But the show’s end doesn’t mean the end of Danson’s relationship with NBC. In July the actor was offered the lead role in yet another straight-to-series comedy created by Tina Fey and Robert Carlock. The next series will see Danson starring as a wealthy businessman who unexpectedly wins an election to become mayor of L.A.

In the meantime fans are left to wonder just how The Good Place will end after four seasons of heavy emotional investment. In an interview with Adweek, here’s what Danson had to say about how the series wraps up:

“These are all things I should let an audience say after seeing it, but to me, it was incredibly satisfying on every level. The emotional path of all the characters was incredibly satisfying, and on a more spiritual universe level, it was incredibly satisfying. I really loved the last few episodes. I thought they were just brilliant.”

Five Fun Facts About Charlie Chaplin

Well known and loved throughout the world to this very day, Charlie Chaplin is nothing short of a pioneer and an icon in the world of comedy. Here are five fun facts about the famous comedian.

A reasonable facsimile. As legend has it, at the very height of his fame and popularity Chaplin entered a Charlie Chaplin look-alike contest in France, likely assuming he was a shoo-in. He wasn’t. In fact, Chaplin placed 20th in the contest.

A communist? Charlie Chaplin was once the subject of an investigation by MI5. The investigation began at the request of the FBI, who were in fact trying to ban Chaplin from entering the US under suspicions that he was a communist sympathiser. The investigation did not produce any damning evidence, however.

A notable first. Charlie Chaplin was the first actor to appear on the cover of Time Magazine. Prior to the July 6, 1925 publication the covers has primarily featured politicians, industrialists, and authors.

An unusual doorstop. Although his views would later change, early on in his career Charlie Chaplin didn’t think very fondly of the Academy Awards. In fact, his first Academy Award received in 1929 had a special use in his home, as a doorstop.

A prolific procreator. Chaplin left behind not only a considerable catalogue of work but a plethora of progeny as well. Over his 4 marriages Chaplin fathered 11 children, the youngest being born when Chaplin was 73 years old.
