So this is the bad place.

“The Good Place” star Ted Danson is the latest celebrity to be arrested at the U.S. Capitol for demonstrating on behalf of climate change.

The beloved “Cheers” alum was escorted away in restraints Friday morning after participating in the weekly, youth-led protest known as Fire Drill Fridays, which last week ensnared Oscar winner Jane Fonda and “Law & Order” veteran Sam Waterston in efforts to support Congress’ Green New Deal.

In fact, Fonda, wearing her signature bright red coat, was arrested for the third week in a row for the display and was escorted away triumphantly because getting arrested has been her intention all along.
