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.
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!
Excellent interviews with Jameela Jamil and Manny Jacinto just posted to GQ.
This is my favorite quote from that
I actually lie down in between takes because I'm a sloth. I'm sure that's what they wanna read in GQ. I'm a sloth with breasts. You have your title, you're welcome.
The whole cast is amazing.
I think I don't want it to be a simulation. The interplay between Michael and Gen as they decided to do it, whatever it is, doesn't fit another simulation to me.
Going way back:
You know, the group really maps well onto the crew in the Wizard of Oz. Strange land, Eleanor is Dorothy, Jason is the Scarecrow, Tahani is the Tinman, Chidi is the Lion, Michael is the man behind the curtain, Janet is Toto or maybe Glinda
They all attempted to leave in a hot air balloon.
