One of the best series to do marathon, The Good Place does not show the life of its protagonist, but its death. That's right! The series begins when the protagonist dies and discovers that she went to Lugar Bom, the equivalent of paradise. Only she discovers a small problem: she was mistaken for a person of the same name.

In real life, she had been extremely self-centered and mean, certainly not able to occupy that place.
