Well, we just finished watching the single most intelligent television show ever - The Good Place. Yup. Number One. Now this is not to say that there other intelligent shows. Indeed, they abound. But this one takes the cake. [SPOILER ALERT - read no further if you haven't seen it] And just when I thought it couldn't get any better I found myself given a . . . retirement angle. So we have Ted Danson's Michael (how could the Emmys have passed him/them up for the win?), once he [again, SPOILER ALERT] starts to bemoan his eternal status in the truly Good Place, saying:
****
I guess I'll just stay here forever, you know? Putter around doing mundane things like some sad old retiree. Maybe I'll have Janet make me a hardware store so I can buy a hex wrench that I don't really need.
****
Thanks, Michael, for giving me my retirement moment during the finale of the Smartest Television Show Ever.
And stay safe and well, all . . .
