The Good Place: &quot;Janets&quot;
You&#39;d think &quot;one actor in an empty space&quot; would be a straightforward idea for an episode, but not for this forking ambitious show, which has D&#39;Arcy Carden play every one of the human cast at the same time inside a huge white void. And it explores the philosophical concept of the self. And it has a game-changing plot twist. And it&#39;s one of the most complex and VFX heavy episodes of the show. So much for being a little bottle episode!
