Streaming platforms are constantly shuffling their libraries, but this latest change has really struck a nerve with viewers.
Netflix is preparing to pull The Good Place—a fan-favorite comedy that’s been comforting audiences for years—off its platform at the end of September.
When the Show Will Disappear
On September 26, all four seasons of The Good Place will no longer be available on Netflix.
But for those still wanting to revisit Eleanor, Michael, and Janet, there’s good news: the entire series will be moving over to Amazon Prime Video.
Social Media Meltdown
The announcement has already sparked an outpouring of frustration online.
Fans have been venting across Reddit and X (formerly Twitter), with some even threatening to cancel their Netflix subscriptions.
One Reddit user lamented, “Nooo, I just started rewatching last week.”
Another leaned into the show’s playful language, posting: “Are you absolutely forking kidding me?? Fork you Netflix!!”
Over on X, the reactions were just as dramatic. One user cried, “NETFLIX IS LOSING THE GOOD PLACE and it’s my comfort show, I am devastated.”
Another pleaded: “LEAVE THE GOOD PLACE ALONE PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS AWAY FROM ME.”
The Show That Redefined Sitcoms
Created by Mike Schur, The Good Place ran for four seasons after premiering on NBC in 2016.
The series followed Kristen Bell as Eleanor Shellstrop, a selfish woman who unexpectedly ends up in a heaven-like utopia after dying in a bizarre accident.
She quickly learns her new home isn’t what it seems, with Ted Danson’s Michael and D’Arcy Carden’s fan-favorite character Janet leading the way through the story’s clever twists.
The show became known for its unique humor, its surprising philosophical depth, and its unforgettable season one twist that left audiences reeling.
A Bigger Clear-Out at Netflix
Sadly for subscribers, The Good Place isn’t the only casualty of Netflix’s September clean-up.
The streamer has already lost popular titles like The Holiday, 17 Again, American Gangster, and Bee Movie.
And more departures are still to come. Band of Brothers, London Has Fallen, Wipeout, and The Wave are also set to disappear from the catalog before the month is over.
What’s Next for Viewers
For fans of The Good Place, the silver lining is that the series isn’t vanishing altogether—it’s just moving homes.
But for many, it’s yet another reminder that streaming libraries are never permanent.
Comfort shows may not always stay in one place, but at least they’re still out there, waiting to be rewatched.
