The Good Place [edited title]

Lots. Here’s one list.

Also, the idea that Eleanor got there because of some one-in-a-wacky-high-number coincidence that was so ludicrously improbable as to be unforeseen – okay, we grant that because otherwise there’s no series. But as soon as we find out that a second person got in on an unrelated coincidence-mixup? In retrospect, that makes way more sense if those are just lies, since the alternative is that heaven made two of those almost-never-happens mistakes right next door to each other.

Re: twist clues

Thanks. That’s really good to hear. I’m going to give this another shot and start from the beginning.

Only heard of this show when the 2nd season recently premiered. After watching that I flash binged the first season to see what was happening. I love the Jason character, pure stupidity. Looks like they’re going somewhere with Janet this season. I’ll keep watching for a while.

A really silly “Which character are you” buzzfeed quiz.

I got Janet. I’m ok with that.

I’m Eleanor.

I got . . . Michael?

Huh. Well, he’s a hard worker, I guess.

Heh. Janet too. I was expecting Chidi. Happy to be Janet!

I also got Michael and a hard worker I am not, hence I question the utility of this test.

She’s not a robot! Also, she’s not a girl!

Okay, that I don’t recall. I think so, but not sure…

In my head, I reconciled that because Michael kept saying that it was his first time being in charge of a neighborhood. I chalked it up to new guy, in over his head, doesn’t know what he’s doing, makes some mistakes incompetence. It was also plausible (at the time) that other good place neighborhoods had similar mistakes (the idea that the afterlife is a bureaucracy that can get mismanaged is something that pops up frequently) - and Michael just didn’t know about them.

Before taking it, I’m expecting Chidi.

Nope. Tahani.

I…I don’t know how to respond to this.

(Especially since I really want to be Chidi in the image they use to illustrate Tahani… fans self)

Actually, I do know…Hahaha…overachiever.

I’m pretty sure the two Janets were never in the same room together. Not 100% since it’s been a while since I watched season 1, but, like, 98%.

Thanks. (Same thing for me–it’s a while since I watched season 1, but my memory was that we’d only ever seen one Janet at a time.)

I’m a Janet, too.

You got: Janet

You believe in the power of knowledge above all, and pride yourself on your ability to look at situations objectively. Your loved ones know you’re the best person to come to for advice, because you don’t let feelings get in the way, and you always tell it how it is.

Ugh, I got Michael. This quiz is stupid; I should be allowed to torture it.

I was expecting Chidi, but got Jianyu. This one hurts.

Jianyu, or Jason?

Not the same thing at all!

The quiz is torturing you. Welcome to The Bad Place.
