Switching Channels: Superstore & The Good Place (Patreon)

Superstore and The Good Place have established themselves as the current anchors of NBC's recently revived Must See TV, a storied programming block that's been home to the network's biggest and most beloved sitcoms since the 1980s. The return of these two modern spins on the workplace sitcom inspired Scott and Genevieve to get together to talk about how each series has taken the form into very different, but equally funny, directions. With Superstore having just kicked off its fifth season, and The Good Place beginning its fourth and final, we dig into how each series balances its comedic sensibility with bigger thematic considerations, and how both have navigated narrative twists both great and small.
