Tonight, The Good Place resumes its third season. The midseason premiere of the popular sitcom will air on NBC at 8 p.m. ET, and all subsequent episodes will air at the same time on Thursday nights.

If you don’t have cable or can’t get to a TV, you can watch a live stream of the show (or watch it on-demand) on your computer, phone or streaming device by signing up for one of the following cable-free, live-TV streaming services:

FuboTV

NBC (available live in most markets) is one of 75-plus channels included in the main Fubo bundle. You can sign up for a free 7-day trial right here, and you can then watch a live stream of the show on your computer via the FuboTV website, or on your phone (Android and iPhone supported), tablet, Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast or other supported device via the FuboTV app.

If you can’t watch live, all Season 3 episodes of The Good Place are available in FuboTV’s on-demand library. Additionally, FuboTV comes with 30 hours of Cloud DVR (with the ability to upgrade to 500 hours), as well as a “72-Hour Lookback” feature, which allows you to watch most shows up to three days after they air even if you forgot to record them.

Hulu With Live TV

In addition to a massive on-demand streaming library, Hulu also offers a bundle of 50-plus live TV channels, including NBC (available live in most markets).

Preview

The season returns with an episode titled “The Book of Doug.” The episode synopsis reads: “Michael (Ted Danson) presents his case to the Good Place Committee; Chidi (William Jackson Harper) tries to calm Eleanor (Kristen Bell) down; Tahani (Jameela Jamil) struggles to help Jason (Manny Jacinto) and Janet (D’Arcy Carden).”

The series will also deal with the fact that Chidi and Eleanor finally declared their love for each other in last month’s midseason finale. Harper spoke to TV Line about the new subplot and how it will affect the way the characters interact.

“There’s a kind of clarity, I think, that’s a major thread of Chidi’s arc for the next few episodes,” he explained. “After everything he’s been through this season — remember the marshmallow Peeps chili breakdown? — Chidi’s brain has been broken. He’s been put through the wringer, so there’s nothing left to do but focus on the task ahead of [him], and the people that matter to [him], and the person that matters most is Eleanor.
