In a show that's gotten renowned for its plot twists, the greatest twist of all would be to play it completely straight. I'm saying this is still the michael we've known

Michael being replaced by someone in a micheal suit isn't happening, for these reasons: it's clumsily telegraphed/foreshadowed. it robs the character michael of stuff to do in the early season it doesn't lead to anywhere interesting a body-swap/infiltrator story is somewhat cliché we haven't dealt with anything old michael wouldn't do. In short, it's not happening because it is the expected thing to happen. Now you want a twist? Here's a twist. Team cockroach is going to fail. They will not rehabilitate the human test subjects to the point where they make up the point loss of their current lovely selves. BUT. Almost all the important discussion has occurred around the Accountant's Obelisk. The same accountant who was previously miserable annotating Weird Sex Things. Who will go back to Weird Sex Things if this experiment fails. Who may or may not be able to hear the moral debates of Team Cockroach, and be influenced by the implications. Or who can be blackmailed to give positive points because otherwise it's back to Weird Sex Things for him. And as the show has repeatedly debated, doing a good thing for corrupt reasons is still doing good.

I didn't see it coming, but of course the arbiter of the current system is going to rule to keep that current system and alter society to fit it rather than alter the laws to fit society. It makes sense for their function and role.

wait, since when did glenn care about the humans? I don't remember him caring about humans at all, he was just annoyed that his boss is an rear end in a top hat and was cheating (which was somehow shocking to a demon).

Part of me thinks this week's episode and last week's should have swapped, so that we go into the hiatus after disco janet.

One thing I didn't see is why jason suddenly spilled his drink? Nobody pushed him as far as I can see, and he wasn't even doing anything weird with the drink. Was the drink sapient and suicidal?

BioEnchanted posted:The irony is that Pirates of the Caribbean 12 was actually a return to form for the series. It was just that no one watched it. I'd like to see that actually, a Demon watching something they expect to be trash, only to realise "poo poo, this is actually surprisingly good..." you literally just saw that realization with Shawn.

i imagine the good place people will become the antagonists for the last couple of episodes, coupled with some hilarity as shawn indulges in old habits.

assuming that the final act will place team cockroach against the good place management, ... how do you win against an opponent that wants to let you win? How do you make someone put up a fight when their very essence is to be subservient?

unless I misremember, the announcement of suicide door doesn't state where the door is, just that it exists, you still need to find it. Which could mean that in this omission they created the one thing that is not available in the good place - an obstacle to your goal. Of course the solution someone could come up with could be "hey janet move me to the door" but there is room for growth there.

bearimies are a closed loop so stalin made it less bearimies than hitler, hitler made it in less bearimies than ford and ford made it in less bearimies than stalin.

Owlofcreamcheese posted:Did Jason really ever do ANYTHING after the first season? He made good comedy relief and this is a comedy show so it's fine, but it feels like he rapidly became totally irrelevant to any of the plot. His relationship with Janet cracked the undercover janet case. He was easily the most emotionally mature when the plot decided to use that.
