The Good Place season three has a Metacritic score of 96 out of 100.
Metacritic’s score summarizes professional critical reviews on a 100-point scale. For the third season, the listed score was based on five critics and was classified as “universal acclaim,” placing the season among the show’s strongest critical performers.
Season three aired from September 27, 2018, to January 24, 2019, and consisted of 13 episodes. Its story moved the characters back to Earth, where Michael secretly helped Eleanor, Chidi, Tahani, and Jason pursue moral improvement. The season eventually expanded that idea into a controlled experiment intended to test whether humans could become better under fairer conditions.
The score is easy to confuse with other review aggregates. Season one received 78 on Metacritic, season two received 87, and season three’s Rotten Tomatoes rating was 98 percent. Those are different seasons and different measurement systems, so they should not be treated as interchangeable scores.
