What We’re Watching: DWTS Semi-Finals, Good Place “The Funeral to End All Funerals,” and West Wing “Welcome to Wherever You Are”

On Dancing with the Stars, remember last season, when Bobby Bones won [https://www.spreaker.com/episode/18922326] and everyone freaked the heck out? This season, the semi-final prompted the freaking out when the judges, having scored themselves into a corner, eliminated James Van Der Beek. Next week: The finale, which we'll watch but won't be happy about.

On The Good Place, "The Funeral to End All Funerals" was actually three funerals and a courtroom drama. Mentioned: The Good Place podcast (https://www.nbc.com/the-good-place/exclusives/tgp-podcast; please don't try Terri's drinking-game idea). Next week: "The Answer."

On The West Wing's "Welcome to Wherever You Are," we got sympathetic indigestion just watching the Santos team criss-cross the country in the last days of the campaign, even if they did take Jon Bon Jovi along for the ride. Next week: "Election Day, Part 1."
