"The Good Place" Season 4: Does Our Soul Squad Have A "Tinker, Tailor, Demon, Spy" in Their Midst? [PREVIEW]
Can't wait to get your fix of all the demons, not-people, and our favorite humans – the "Soul Squad"? We can't wait either – which is why we're so forking glad NBC's The Good Place released new promo images and a (way too brief) overview of next episode "Tinker, Tailor, Demon, Spy."
So what are you waiting for? Check 'em out below, and we'll meet you on the other side…
"The Good Place" season 4, episode 4 "Tinker, Tailor, Demon, Spy": Uncertainty abounds when an unexpected visitor arrives.
"Unexpected visitor"?! Could it be Brent's mother-in-law, here in the afterlife to rein him in and make him stop being such a massive ash-hole?
One can hope – but sadly I don't think that's who it is. Maybe it's "Donkey Doug", here to cheer up Jason after finding out that the Jacksonville Jaguars cut Blake Bortles!
I bet it's probably the "hooded mystery figure" we saw at the end of last week's episode – but who could it be?!?
Whoever it is, we will just have to wait until Thursday night to find out…
From creator Michael Schur comes a unique comedy about what makes a good person. The show follows Eleanor Shellstrop (Kristen Bell), an ordinary woman who enters the afterlife, and thanks to some kind of error, is sent to the Good Place instead of the Bad Place (which is definitely where she belongs). While hiding in plain sight from Good Place Architect Michael (Ted Danson), she's determined to shed her old way of living and earn her spot.
Over the course of season three, Michael and the team decided to try to fix the outdated points system after discovering that nobody has entered the Good Place for over 500 years. They convinced the Judge (guest star Maya Rudolph) on the idea of setting up a new neighborhood in the Medium place to see, once and for all, if humans can improve themselves.
The plan is set in motion and four new test subjects, chosen by Shawn (guest star Marc Evan Jackson) and the demons, populate the area with Michael and the group overseeing the experiment. Unfortunately for Eleanor, she is forced to assume the role as Architect, following Michael's sudden breakdown, and must also deal with the repercussions following Chidi's (William Jackson Harper) decision to make the ultimate sacrifice and have his memory erased.
Also seeking redemption is elegant Pakistani-British socialite Tahani Al-Jamil (Jameela Jamil) and dance-obsessed Floridian Jason Mendoza (Manny Jacinto). They are aided by Janet (D'Arcy Carden), a human-esque repository for all the knowledge in the universe.
