Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Eleanor's new soulmate's stripper tear-away tops/jackets made me howl every. single. time.

Oh my god, me too. They committed to that gag, and it worked.

Chidi is still the ACTUAL BEST.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I hadn't been too impressed with his acting, but then when he went off about Twisting, I was on board.

Chidi is still the ACTUAL BEST.

Co-signed. Though I really was loving all of them SO MUCH last night. (How much fun was Drunk Tahani?!)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Thinking about this on the way to lunch, Eleanor and Chidi mostly figured out something was wrong from each other, but Michael pushed Jason and Tahani too far. Giving Jason a shadow so he could never do anything with the slightest bit of fun? Forcing Tahani to live in a tiny hut and wear ugly clothes? They just snapped.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

"It's all talk and no twisting" was perfect.

I'm loving that the demons are not really into this and aren't actually good at it.

Yeah, I feel like Real!Eleanor might throw a big spanner in the works because she wants a bigger "role". (LOVED the meta-commentary on creating the second season.)

Thrive to spite them

I watched the premiere!

I liked the different PoVs and the demons sucking . Also likes that they reset it again and made it harder. Loved that Chico went right back to the almond milk as to why he was on the Bad Place. And Jason and janet's interaction .

Now Michael has to deal with demons who are bad at what they do and hiding that this is the third try.

I keep wondering if any of the demons messed stuff up last time but the group was too overwhelmed with trying to hide their secrets that it was easier to cover.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

That was awesome!!1! So much to like. Especially...

her successively more disparaging/despairing monikers for a female plumber. I lost it at "clog wench."

I was dying.

Yeah, I feel like Real!Eleanor might throw a big spanner in the works because she wants a bigger "role".

As soon as Michael hit the reset button again (now with no note!), it occurred to me that a disgruntled Real!Eleanor might start adlibbing next time around, or even just completely flip on Michael.

Also, Tahani whacking her head on the overhead light in her tiny little house was perfect.

Clearly you didn't see Eleanor's sash.

Ha! But we know the sash is a LIE.
