So now we find out the Good Place is actually really lame since it's full of those Good Place Committee people?

Well I imagine that it's also pretty lame due to probably not being updated in 500 years.

I don't see the judge letting them not go through. They're being tested. This speculation, though? Classic us.

Pretty good episode, though most of the good parts were basically the non Chidileanor parts. Vicki has gone from annoying to amazing in just one episode. I wonder how Glenn is doing.

I hope they mention Mindy St Clare gets to go through the new process. I imagine her challenge will be NOT to do cocaine. Surely there will be a new issue next episode?

Former Human posted:I've never said this before but... wha? "Once on Earth, I didn't know the answer to something and had to ask Alexa. It felt...dirty." was a great line Janet joke too. That aside, I'm kind of surprised someone in the Jason, Chidi and Eleanor group didn't point out that just because they're in love now doesn't mean they have to be in love for eternity. That soulmates was just a concept Michael presented to torture them, and they don't actually have to be together forever; that if their feelings eventually change, they can deal with it move on if that times comes. I realize the show would probably want to go for a soulmates now and forever thing regardless, but you'd think someone would at least think about that possibility. tsob fucked around with this message at 13:46 on Jan 17, 2020 |

He's definitely involved in something here. I wouldn't be surprised if he's being tested in some way too. I absolutely loved this episode as the finals to Vicky's arc. It was sweet and made perfect sense for her character.

Yeah, she always struck me as a being who strived for a higher purpose. She'd turn her back on butthole spiders and penis flatteners forever if it meant she got to reshape the entire afterlife.

I don't think they're being tested, I think it's finally time to see what the actual good place is like and perhaps discover some inherent problems there to create conflict for the last 3 episodes.

I could fully see the Good Place being a huge disappointment in some way. It might come down to simply being a meaningless existence for Team Cockroach after everything they've done. EDIT: \/ that's what I mean. It's kind of a part of human nature to find joy in overcoming a challenge. A life without any challenge would be boring for most of us.

I don't think they're being tested, because what would testing prove? Especially to the audience, who already know the result because that's what the show has been doing for some time.

It might come down to simply being a meaningless existence for Team Cockroach after everything they've done. I don't know about meaningless, but I could see all of them finding it boring. Something that's kind of being built up with Michael, given all the talk of him pushing rocks as the reason for his existence and how he defines himself. If the Good Place is just instant gratification with no conflict of any kind, there's no rock to push. Michael might find a new rock to push in trying to update the Good Place. Vicki is the new architect of the Bad Place, which has a purpose with a limited lifespan for it's residents, so maybe Michael will be the new architect of the Good Place and the conflict will be trying to find something for the residents to do with eternity beyond satisfy their own whims. Given what pushovers the Good Place committee are I could also see the Good Place being an actual shithole because all the bored residents have spent countless Jeremy Bearimess finding new ways to amuse themselves as a way to avoid boredom and have slipped in to depravity due to decadence. tsob fucked around with this message at 16:38 on Jan 17, 2020 |

Yeah, I can imagine that the poorly conceived Micheal-is-jealous-of-Vicki plot is just a setup for the idea that these guys are going to hate endless light entertainment. A vacation from work is fun, but what's the point of existing if the molotov cocktails you throw won't explode? I kind of like the idea that, ok, they fixed the bad place! Now it's time to fix the *good place*.

I could see that being where they end up in an "and the adventures continue" type of ending. Worth noting that no humans have gotten into the Good Place in something like 500 years, so there's definitely going to be aspects of it that don't really fit their needs since no one there has dealt with new humans in so long. Then again, Jeremy Bearimy and all that might not really be a factor. Good Place people being complete pushovers might actually help people who live there. If the Molotovs aren't blowing up, tell one of them you want it to and you should get what you want. I'm interested to see what conflicts could arise when the force that would normally resist your arguments instead always immediately caves to your point of view.

Shipping off the effective members of the good team, to be replaced presumably by the useleaa good place management team,before anyone has actually passed the test seems like are restart of the same situation we started with. With the demons now being more subtle and effective.

When the balloon showed up I thought for sure Michael was going to shut the door to the balloon once the cockroaches got in because he knew he couldn't go and the balloon would lift off before they realized what was happening and they have to try and find a way to go back for him. I still get a vibe something really heartbreaking is going to happen. Mordiceius posted:Tiya Sircar is insanely attractive. Holy mother forking shirtballs. She is crazy hot. And if that was the end of her story arc and the rest is the gang being in the Good Place it was a perfect send-off.

It seems like it's been a very long time since there has been a full episode without something completely bonkers happening. It makes me suspicious. I am curious if Vicki will hold up her end of the deal. I'm also curious what the gang is going to find once they finally get to the Good Place.

There's also no real reason for Vicki to do anything. She's basically top dog in the Bad Place, as well as getting to do all the acting she wants. Why would she kick up a fuss, when it's endanger her own happiness? More to the point, what does this mean for Shawn?
