Hooray it's out on hulu  - I already saw the first scene, but it's still great. - Of course Eleanor pronounces it "jiff"  - what the hell is that accent, Ted Danson - relatedly, Janet can lie - SHAWN!  - Okay I like Simone. - this episode is moving hilariously fast, I love it - Michael's really good at the sleazy scam artist, surprisingly - less good at fake human names - Jason is still perfectly conveying the atmosphere of Jacksonville - TREVOR!?

Regy Rusty posted:I think that without most of the people in charge realizing it yet, this whole experiment with these four humans just keeps snowballing and has the potential to upend the entire way the afterlife functions. Sean is doing what he's doing, not out of official capacity, but because he personally can't stand that they got away, and now they're interfering on Earth in a way that (presumably) isn't allowed. Sean knocked it out of the park this episode. although I wish we knew how he got out of the unmarked catacomb room he was hoping to extrajudicially imprison Michael in

precision posted:I think a big clue in that direction was the line "we torture 30 billion humans, who cares about these four?" Incidentally, the rough estimate of all humans who have ever lived is a bit north of 100 billion. And since when has this show played fast and loose with time?

Harrow posted:I think he still struggles to be good himself. This whole episode has him doing some very ethically dubious things, up to and including considering arson. He cares deeply about these four specific humans, but his default is still to lie and cheat. the arson thing was a great gag even though it was immediately overshadowed

Toast Museum posted:Then there's probably no point in showing it, and probably no way to show much of it without it being a letdown anyway. I think this is a big part of why it seems like fiction often features detailed descriptions of Hell while leaving Heaven rather vague or mysterious. see also: Dante's Inferno is kind of a big deal and nobody has ever willingly read Dante's Paradiso

thanks alot assbag posted:She's probably still just a regular scientist, but we don't know a lot about her own ethics. It's possible that down the road, she might want to do some experiment a la Milgram that isn't ethical, and it gives the group reason for pause. Especially if she gets her hands on fully operational Janet capabilities.

tarlibone posted:I agree. It's just that ever since that comment was made, the assumption seems to be that whoever it was wanted to see Janet in that outfit because it was sexy, and it's misogynist to want to see women in sexy outfits (or something like that). Is it possible the OP just meant that it was a funny costume, and that is the reason why they wanted to see her in it more often? I ask because I didn't find the outfit sexy. I don't think it was ugly or anything, but it didn't strike me as fetishized (especially in terms of infantilism fetish), sexy, or even particularly attractive. It was just a goofy getup. Serious person + goofy outfit = comedy gold. As the poster who initiated this sequence of events: I was uncomfortable with the moderate level of objectification involved with the outfit (as a midriff-baring waitress outfit in a restaurant satirizing all the worst things about America and its restaurants) but this isn't a bad post either. that said I don't regret instigating a serious discussion of the Daisy Duke archetype Goatse James Bond fucked around with this message at 04:23 on Oct 22, 2018 |

This was another good episode.  I'm not sure what they're doing for next episode. Does Chidi have anyone he wants to save? also i really, really enjoyed Tahani's acting this time round there's probably a good Tahani With Axe avatar shot somewhere, although I really love my Michael Cohen av Goatse James Bond fucked around with this message at 20:50 on Nov 2, 2018 |

- a memory widget? this is potentially crazy - lol i knew there was a sight gag coming but it's good - "you did die young and unaccomplished" - man pick-a-pet day seems like a genius demon idea - okay, what about the mirror centaur? oh lol tahani asked - is that a hippo in the background during the half-second shot - "you're going to show me how thoughtful and caring i am or i will rip off your demon head and shove it up whatever's where your butt should be" - i like eleanor's iguana - "and love is stronger than anything you can throw at us" "no it's not" - "it's the only book they have in the sex ed section" - "this is all just determinism" "what?" i love this show - lol at both 444 and 445 - 'mom once made mac n cheese with wine instead of milk', enemies: neil degrasse tyson (note: one-sided, from his side, page 4815 of 162432, ambien hamster mishap, problematic halloween costumes - "well he's very authoritative and i find that reassuring" - "is sam the eagle here?" "no" snap it's their acting that makes it- oh hey we're going to meet doug forcett! also "go through that makeshift portal, see if you explode" this is gonna own good episode

Harrow posted:I think we're just supposed to accept that their version of Earth is a very wacky one. I mean, go back and listen to all of the things Jason says about Jacksonville in seasons 1 and 2. He says some outlandish poo poo that we're never really led to believe is incorrect. Most of what we're seeing this season is totally in line with Jason attending Lynyrd Skynyrd High School, a school that consists of a bunch of tugboats lashed together in a junkyard and where most of the classes are just selling dirty magazines door-to-door. nothing about any of this is inconsistent with our Jacksonville though

Mameluke posted:So is it something like the context of your actions is important as well? You're judged in relation to the maximum possible number of people you can help, and a globally interconnected world means that nobody can reach that number? Whereas a farrier in 6th-century France could give one set of free horseshoes to all the farmers in his 5 mile-wide world and be assured entry for having helped a large percentage of all people he could know? I think the first paragraph here is probably the winner.

BioEnchanted posted:I think the best way to deal with Shawn at this point as a finale thing would be him being demoted to the accountants office, no longer able to actively torture people, just being forced to sift through weird sex things under the new structure. That would be his hell. Just to rub it in, make Vicky his manager as a direct assistant to Stephen Merchant. that reminds me, the delivery on "Can I have a paperclip?" "What are you going to do with it?" was amazing dude sounded hilariously haunted

- jason, you seem thoughtful, and that concerns me - janet is alarmingly human these days - what if they come out my butt? - mailman chidi is amazing - we're the good guys. we can't just do stuff. - i'm not sure teaching janet that killing people solves problems is the best idea - the committee's a bunch of ineffectual dorks in fleece vests - how do you make jason happy? you give him a lollipop shaped like a Transformer - huh, our globalization hypothesis was actually pretty close - and the emotions aren't coming out of my butt, they're coming out of my eyes - cool. smells like frogs.
