I can't believe we have to wait a year for more Good Place. This show just KEEPS GETTING BETTER. In a weird way I think this show has actually achieved what Lost was going for all those years? THIS is how you build a narrative using flashbacks and resets.
I want Janet to make her way into the real world.
Are they in the real world, or are they in another simulation?
And I shrieked when Chidi kissed Eleanor.
Yeah, that was very decisive of Chidi, which made it extra hot given that Chidi is Chidi.
There is no way in The Bad Place that I could have predicted where the show went with this episode. Initially I was like, "while it's lovely to see Eleanor trying to be a good person, I don't want the show the keep the characters separated, wahhh." Then we had that scene with Michael and Eleanor flying to Australia (!) to Chidi, and everything was all right again.
I've seen arguments that it must be a simulation because Chidi is speaking in American-accented English instead of French-accented.
Yeah, that was what made me wonder. And also if they actually had the power to alter history. Or...send them to an alternate history? I guess the judge has a ton of power. And can Michael just pop in and out of reality? Or are demons just supposed to be confined to torturing people in The Bad Place? Not that Michael's playing by the rules at this point.
Those old stock ticker machines they were reading made me think it's some kind of simulation.
Look who's on the truck:

Bless. They're so fucking good at the details.
I'm pretty sure it's a simulation. I don't think they could have hidden what they were doing if they brought all 4 back to life. Also it could mess up other people.
Also the showrunners wouldn't over look something like Chidi not sounding different .
That's awesome.
So, Sean is Eleanor's Boss? When she's not trying, anyway.
Ah, this show. So good!
