There's going to be a 6 'webisode' series online about how the Bad Place selected the 4 dingdongs for the experiment. The first one is already up on the EW's site exclusively and I didn't see it anywhere on youtube. Find it here along with an article. Should be good.

These were fun . Did anyone else notice that in webisode 3, the menus they were ordering lunch from were the Bad Place version of the menu for JJ’s Diner from Parks and Rec?

He narrated Megan’s miniseries. Also that really long speech about a hypothetical reboot of Star Wars from Parks and Rec. Though that was a while ago.

This year was for An Emmy for Megan, but has been nominated before for his stand up specials, and he won once, not sure which one. But it spurred the amazing photo of him in a tux, holding his Emmy award, and drinking whiskey from the bottle in a fast food joint parking lot.

Going by how Star Trek's similar miniseries was handled, I bet it goes up on Netflix right around the midseason finale.

Heads up: Tonight at 10/9c, NBC will air a 1-hour Fall Preview special, hosted by D’Arcy Carden.

quote:

Hosted by D’Arcy Carden of “The Good Place” and featuring comedy stars Bradley Whitford, Anna Camp, Kal Penn and more, this special takes an in-depth look at NBC’s new fall lineup.

Whether or not she’ll be in-character as Janet is unknown, but I’m guessing she will. The premise of Janet presenting TV show data is too good to not do.

I'm going to guess "Demons who think they're part of a working system" vs "Demons who are just out to hurt people".

Here's my guess on how it ends:

After whatever goes down in S4, they change from "eternal damnation" they move to reincarnation. That way Chidi can teach lovely people ethics for a couple hundred years and then send them back down for another go around.

And then if they still suck they get more Chidi lectures until they get enough points for the Good Place.

Does this look like the face of mercy, kupo?
My guess for the ending is more along the lines of "they fix the system, but they're deemed necessary for their position to work, so they don't actually get to go to the good place"

I imagine they make a new "Medium place" where people basically get a year to be evaluated on their points and their potential to change without the externalities of the real world loving things up. The Soul Squad sticks around i nthe medium place to help people along and recruit others to help them and possibly reevaluate the multitudes of people in the Bad Place that probably didn't necessarily deserve to be there.

And watch this theory be blown apart by episode 3

Well, since they have Jeremy Bearimy the soul squad could always take a vacation and come back if it turns out that what they're doing works.

Also, and this still bugs me. Mr. Rogers is in the Bad Place and no one has pointed it out. Like, that should be a bigger deal amongst the humans. Even if Jason just asks offhandedly like "Wait, Mr. Rogers is in the Bad Place? What did he do wrong and who do I Molotov cocktail to fix it?"

My guess is that the four of them succeed in fixing the whole good place/bad place system, but the new rules they helped to create force them to undergo a special appeals trial. And, at that trial, everyone they've ever wronged is called, one by one, to testify. They even have clever nicknames for all of them. At the end, they're judged, and they're sentenced to a legit bad place for one year. They go to their temporary holding cell where they'll wait for transport to the bad place, and the screen suddenly goes black.

fin.
