Good God (2012): Besetzung, Handlung & Streaming

Released in 2012, Good God is a komödie series.

What it’s about. Good God is a Canadian television comedy-drama series which premiered in April 2012 on HBO Canada. The show follows the life of character George Findlay, a role that Ken Finkleman reprised from The Newsroom and subsequent television projects. The series was originally slated to be the second season of Finkleman's previous HBO Canada project Good Dog, but was retitled in accordance with a change in the show's setting. The show was described in early media coverage as having been inspired in part by the launch of Sun News Network. In the show's first episode, for example, Findlay is forced to respond to allegations that his new venture is aspiring to be "Fox News North", an epithet which the real Sun News Network also faced both before and after its launch. The series was nominated for several awards at the 2013 Canadian Screen Awards, including Best Comedy Series, Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for Jason Weinberg and Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series nods for both Samantha Bee and Jud Tylor.

Who’s in it. Good God stars Ken Finkleman as George Findlay, Samantha Bee as Shandy Sommers, Lolita Davidovich as Virginia Hailwood and April Mullen as Kathy Duncan, among others.

How it landed. With an audience score of 6.5/10, Good God has drawn a solid, mixed-to-positive response.
