Kristen Bell as Eleanor, William Jackson Harper as Chidi and Ted Danson as Michael in"The Good Place."
And not only are their audiences still awake, they’re responding — something “Better Call Saul” and its predecessor series, “Breaking Bad,” noticed starting a decade ago. Both series run on a mission statement of showing audiences how an average man goes rotten, given the right circumstances. “That idea was so weird to me and weirdly corrupt, that someone could decide morality on behalf of a corporation — that just seems broken,” says creator Jon Bokenkamp. “That’s where the episode started.”
But it’s also about changes in the audience. “A lot of people are more defeatist than I’ve ever seen in my lifetime,” says “Miracle Workers” creator Simon Rich. “People are gravitating toward shows that try to posit some kind of explanation for the deeply flawed world we find ourselves in.”
