Recently I binge watched Abbot Elementary, and I couldn't get enough of it, watched the British version of ghosts and it was quite good too.

I have tried "what we do in the shadows" and it wasn't to my liking.

What are your suggestions about a light comedy series of the same genre ?

I don’t know how many executives Michael Schur had to hogtie, to not only get this show made and bring it to a conclusion, but he will forever have my gratitude.

It's wild how many things other shows would make a whole season out of that they burned in half an episode.

Exactly! Not only that but I often will go out of my way to not guess where a show is going because I’ll get disappointed when they end where they began or just play to a trope. But The Good Place constantly elevated the story by going where it should and not what people are used to.

If you haven't listened, The Good Place: The Podcast is a good listen for fans as well. (to anyone else, there are spoilers. I don't remember the exact details of what/when, but I'd just watch the whole show before listening.)
