This show has alan yang involved. who worked on "master of none"(a personal favorite)and "the good place." It seems like he took the style of master of none and applied it to the premise (sort of) of the good place. The result is a really weird show, that I am not sure what to think of. It is well cast, good production, very interesting, but... well, the shows that come to mind, to compare this to are the remake of "the prisoner"and "john from Cincinnati." Two shows most are not familiar with. They were, interesting, original, well cast, good production, and made absolutely no sense to anyone. Oh and they were cancelled quickly. If "forever" makes it to season 2, I will check it out to see if it goes anywhere. If not the ending of this season can serve as some sort of ending, because based on general consensus it might not make it. And maybe shouldn't, or maybe should, it depends on your tolerance for the truly bizarre, and if there is a point to it after all. So in the end all I can say is if you like things that are outside of television for the masses, maybe you should at least check it out. Maybe you will love it, or hate it, or just shake your head in confusion, I know I feel all those things somehow.
P.s a television 7 for me is a movie 6 (mediocre).
